From today's presidential news, anno 2019:
President Trump’s golf resort in Doral, Fla., is scheduled to host a golf tournament Saturday put on by a Miami-area strip club, which will allow golfers to pay for a dancer to serve as their “caddy girl” while they play at the president’s club.
The “Shadow All Star Tournament” is organized by the Shadow Cabaret, a strip club in Hialeah, Fla.
So it goes. I'm trying to imagine what the reactions of the public would be if, say, Hillary Clinton had done something similar. For instance, suppose that she had organized a fund-raising party where the guests could pay to have young male strippers sit at their tables during the dinner.*

* To be clear she never did that. And to be even clearer, I wrote that paragraph to point out the gendered nature of the above arrangement. It's female dancers that the male golf-players pay for. And to be clearer than that, this is about sex, but it's really only about sex for the buyers, and not for the sellers. Still, most of Trump's base would like all of reality to work like this:
Mancuso said there would be no nudity at the resort. On the course, he said, the caddies would wear pink miniskirts and what he called “a sexy white polo.” Afterward, however, the golfers and the dancers would return to another venue — the cabaret itself — for what he described as a “very tasteful” burlesque show, which could involve nudity.
“They’re going to be clothed the whole time” at the golf course, Mancuso said. “At the venue is different.”
