Yes, yes it does

Phil Mickelson ( who, after his last political debacle--whining about paying taxes after getting paid millions to hit a little ball into a hole with a stick--you'd think would wise up and stay out of political debates) said this week that Donald Trumps racist comments didn't negate all the good he's done for golf.

Leaving aside the inflated sense of importance Mickelson conflates with hitting a little ball into a hole with a stick, this is akin to saying "Just because Hitler killed six million Jews doesn't take away all he did to help Germany rebuild its economy during the Great Depression."

Bank robbers don't get a pass on their jail sentence because they once helped a little old lady across the street, and Trump doesn't get a pass on his racism because he built a fucking golf course.  Period.

Peace,
