John Daly and Trump go Viral!
The PGA golfer was filmed during a call in which the former president says he’d ‘hit Moscow’ if Putin caused trouble.
During the conversation with Daly, according to a video posted by @nopopsgolf Instagram, Trump said he “got along great” with Putin while in office and seemed to imply that Russia didn’t invade Ukraine while he was President because he had threatened to bomb Moscow.
“They’re all saying, ‘Oh, he’s a nuclear power,’ ” Trump said on the video, which has now been posted by multiple media outlets. “You know, he was a friend of mine. I got along great with him. I say, ‘Vladimir, if you do it, we’re hitting Moscow.’ I said, ‘We’re gonna hit Moscow.’ And he sort of believed me, like 5 percent, 10 percent. That’s all you need.”

Daly said one of his friends in the room had placed the call on speakerphone so everyone could hear, but no one knew the call and video were being recorded.
Daly said he was upset that the video came out, because he considers Trump a friend. .
“We know now who did it, who filmed it,” Daly said, declining to identify the person. “That jerk. We’re very upset with him. I apologized to Mr. Trump.
“I’m not that guy; I’d never do that. It wasn’t that bad (what Trump said), but I’m his friend, and I would never do that to him. Whoever did it (posted the video first) must have sold it.”
Asked if he reached Trump when he called to apologize, Daly said no. “I talked to a few people on his staff,” he said. “They were upset.”
We know Donald loves the attention, so I’m not buying this wasn’t intentionally leaked.
