Trump reportedly flipped out when Hillary Clinton's brother wore his golf pants
President Trump and the Clinton family are like oil and water, but they do have a shared love: golf. Former President Bill Clinton has played with everyone from Tom Brady to Barack Obama to Tiger Woods, and his brother-in-law, Hugh Rodham, has also been known to play a round or two.
The problem, though, is when those worlds collide. In Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump, a new book out this week, sportswriter Rick Reilly tells a story about the time Hillary Clinton got her younger brother, Hugh Rodham, a chance to play Winged Foot, an exclusive invitation-only club in New York. The problem was, Rodham apparently showed up wearing shorts, which are against the club's strict dress code. A desperate search for pants ensued, but since "Rodham is a man of large girth ... there weren't any pants in the pro shop that fit," Reilly writes.
