While he might have some money, he has no class. The big money Dem party donors would never even consider doing something that immature. He's likely a 4th or 5th tier donor despite his status on the island.
I'm not sure how well he and the wife are going to blend in.
They're from Brooklyn after all, and we're talking Iowa.
Iowans tend to not be as perceptive and as bright as Nebraskans, but I believe most of them could immediately recognize someone as not being one of them.....and then after a little bit, decipher that they're from.....Brooklyn, or at least New York City.
No matter how good of actors the two of them are, everything about this couple is going to shout "NON-IOWAN! NON-IOWAN! NOT ONE OF US!"
<<<claims no kinship with Iowans, however.
