of a cheap House of Prostitution in old movies. Or............"The White House" by Cecil B. DeMille.

In fact, there are eerie comparisons of Trump and DemIlle.

These quotes about DeMille taken from a critique of the book, "Cecil B. DeMille: A Life in Art" :

"But in his vision of the Bible as an American frontier narrative he recast this old trend in American culture as a cinematic precursor of the “neoconservatism” of our own times...artist or hack, defender of freedom or a hypocritical opportunist who embraced the golden calf of sheer commercialism, he is a pervasive puzzle---a mirror of the larger puzzle and contradictions of America itself."


Trump has the taste of a Madam, and he's turned the White House into a brothel for his rich friends.
