The latest nonsensical quote from reality star and possible presidential candidate Donald Trump involves gay marriage and golf clubs.

Speaking to The New York Times, Trump tried to explain his aversion to marriage equality by saying he's a traditionalist. Trump used the following analogy: "It's weird. You see these great players with these really long putters, because they can't sink three-footers anymore. And, I hate it. I am a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist."
