that the photos released today include a photo of Bill Clinton hangin' with the Jeff.

Which, I would argue, rather damages your hypothetical here.

As for your standards (and do your quotation marks around that word indicate you're using it ironically?), they seem rather flexible. You, for instance, declare that Trump is a special case because he's the president. Is that the only exception? Some of the people at issue here are extremely wealthy and quite influential. How do you justify excepting your standards for one person based, I guess, on importance, but deny that exception for other important people?
