(TheRedAlertNews.com) – In a new attack against Donald Trump, his recent remarks about golf legend Arnold Palmer at a rally have inflamed tensions once again, prompting a sharp rebuke from Palmer’s daughter, Peg Palmer Wears.
During a campaign event at Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump made controversial remarks about Palmer, who is a cherished figure in the sports world.
These remarks—deemed vulgar by many on the left—were made in Palmer’s hometown, adding an extra layer of insensitivity.
Peg Palmer Wears didn’t hold back, labeling Trump’s remarks as “disrespectful,” “inappropriate,” and “unacceptable.”
She further accused Trump of exploiting her father’s legacy to boost his own image.
Asserting the need for substance within political discourse, Peg Palmer Wears challenges Trump to move beyond flippant anecdotes in his rallies.
“The people coming to these rallies deserve substance about plans Trump has as a candidate, if he could elucidate on some of the threats he’s made to people,” she stated.
“I mean, these are important issues that should be discussed for people when they’re getting ready to vote, and using my dad to cover over the important things just seems unacceptable to me,” Wears added.
Her plea underscores a growing demand for genuine, issue-driven conversations in the political sphere, according to a report by The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Trump’s rally remarks included inappropriate references to Arnold Palmer’s genitals, reciting anecdotes from locker-room experiences with Palmer.
The uproar caused by these comments highlights a significant divide in political rhetoric.
Trump’s depiction of Palmer as “all man” has done little to ease the backlash from both Palmer’s family and supporters.
“Being at the airport, which is named for my dad, where he flew out of to go to work every day or every week, you know, to come there and talk about … hackneyed anecdotes from the locker room … seemed disrespectful and inappropriate to me,” commented Peg Palmer Wears.
Despite these fiery events, Peg Palmer confirmed she will participate in the upcoming presidential election as an unaffiliated voter in North Carolina, one of the key battleground states.
Trump’s campaign, as of now, has not commented on this heated exchange.
“What would my dad think of Donald Trump today? I think he’d cringe,” Peg Palmer Wears said further.
