Biden is a 6.7 handicap?

Maybe 40 years ago.

I'll play Dementia Joe at a 6.7 for my life savings right now. Dude isn't even capable of driving a golf cart.

Trump is supposed to be pretty good, Ike and JFK were damn good, Kennedy was considered a legit pro level golfer

Trump and Eisenhower are the only two I believe. They both played and apparently Trump is good. Biden’s must be from 40 years ago. Are these age adjusted or when they were in their prime?

William Taft isnt even alive.

Some of those guys were good athletes in their day, so it’s not crazy to think the Bush’s for instance were 10 handicappers.

Taft was a top 5 golfer, could absolutely smash the driver.

A 2.8 handicap would require any person to play golf a minimum of 4 times a week.

A 6.7 would require a minimum of 3 times a week.

Golf isn't like riding a bike. It takes constant practice.

Most certainly a person who has a 2 handicap could take a few months off and go out and shoot a 78. But note a handicap is essentially your best score average. The handicap takes your top 10 scores of your last 20 rounds.
So, a 2.8 handicap would require someone to average around a 74 for half of your rounds. You just can't do that playing sporadically.

I believe Trump's handicap. The man has been involved in golfing his entire life. Biden I don't believe at all. The man lies about everything. The Bush presidents, Clinton, Ford, and Obama I could also buy.

I do not believe that Trump today is a 2.8. He probably hasn’t hit a putt inside 6 feet in years.

I don’t believe Biden at any point in his life was a ever single digit handicap.

The rest are believable assuming in their prime.

Everyone from the 12s and down.

All the others, no chance.

I've seen Obama swing a golf club. Ain't no way he's a 13.

Seeing as a lot of them are dead, no I don't believe that.
