Parkinson's likely explains Trump's decline

This interested party confesses bewilderment at the rise of golf among young Native Americans especially because country clubs use fungicides and herbicides that leach into watersheds and kill the mycelium of important species.

The good news? Donald Trump has developed or is developing Parkinson's disease if studies being conducted by Mayo Clinic and others are accurate. In line with previous findings researchers have discovered that patients living near or who spend hours on golf courses are at least 126% more likely to develop Parkinson's. Trump Fat Nixon wastes loads of time at courses in places like Aberdeen, Scotland; Colts Neck, New Jersey and Mar-a-Lago is just three miles from Trump International Golf Club in Florida. 

Possibly hoping to hasten Trump's decline Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gifted a putter to the afflicted duffer during a Monday visit to the White House.
This population-based case-control study provides evidence in support of an association between living within proximity to golf courses and the risk of developing PD. Shorter distances from golf courses were associated with an increased risk of PD compared with those living farther away. Associations with the largest increase in odds was found in individuals living within water service areas with a golf course and in vulnerable ground water regions.
