Idaho’s version of a ‘Trump wedding’
Yes, Donald Trump arrogantly proclaimed before a national TV audience that Hillary Clinton “had no choice” but to attend his wedding because of his previous contributions to the Democrat’s foundation. Here’s Idaho’s own version of the “Trump wedding.” It happens every year, and incredibly, it’s perfectly legal. Right around Labor Day, state and local politicians and government bureaucrats are invited to a swanky weekend getaway, where they get to participate in golfing, shooting and fly fishing. They stay at resort accommodations, alternating annually between Coeur d’Alene and Sun Valley, are wined and dined and pose for pictures with the governor. The event is the Idaho Governor’s Cup, a charitable event billed as a college scholarship fundraiser for Idaho schoolchildren. But that’s not all it is. It’s also an “opportunity” for businesses to show their support for the event—and by extension, Idaho’s ruling class—by giving generously to the cause/Wayne Hoffman, Idaho Reporter. More here.
Question: I agree with Hoffman. Something stinks here. Thoughts?
