What?? Vanna White got married to Linda Evans'fiance? Scandalous!
And, who's Linda Evans?
"Monkey Business" was the name of a boat, well, a yacht really, that was involved with the downfall of favored Democrat Primary election candidate Gary Hart (from Colorado). That picture on the right of the National Enquirer front page is famous, but the scandal of the immorality of Gary Hart caused his downfall a while before that. If you don't trust a 39 year-old Enquirer for the story (wow, for only 69ยข!),
After the shenanigans out of Bill Clinton in the 1990s, worries about immorality of a candidate for President seemed pretty old-fashioned. Then there was Trump. By 2016, even Evangelical voters didn't care anymore. If you voted based on extramarital affairs and such, you might get a very moral GOPe candidate (probably not), but it seemed morally more important to try to save the country.
Here at Peak Stupidity's locale, we have a Primary election coming in which the incumbent who would like to stay an additional 20-something years in the FedGov is a NeoCon AND an immigration traitor. We want him gone now, as once the General election comes up, he's normally against someone even worse. It's probably hopeless, but I won't give up.
Therefore when a young guy called me (where DID he get my number?) to come by, talk, and bring some yard signs for the other GOP candidate - very good per his site - I was glad to help. I told the young man, and my wife later told this candidate, that the large postcards we've been getting from the incumbent accuse our guy of being a cocaine dealer with many arrests, maybe a coke user... he's apparently a very, very, bad man...
Therefore, nothing is any different. I was not able to be there that day to talk to the candidate himself, but I'd have told him that I don't care if he's the biggest drug dealer in the State or was seen on a yacht with ... I don't know, a dead Furry. He's an immigration patriot, and he's against the American warmongering, so he's actually MAGA (well, per his site anyway...) We're beyond that scandal stuff now in this country, nearly 4 decades after the Gary Hart and Donna Rice scandal. There's no time to worry about candidate morality, so your large postcards are no good around here, [REDACTED Incumbent].

PS
There was a picture of Senator Ted Kennedy hovering over some babe on a boat, to which good old boy Senator (D-AL) Howell Heflin remarked, โWell, I do declare! Ha! Why, it do look to me like Senator Kennedy done changed his position on offshore drilling.โ
Those were the days, my friend.

"I do declare" was probably overdoing it a bit, but that's a great impression of an olde timey Southern gentleman Senator, well, maybe not the gentleman part.
Yep, it as a whole different country then.
The Kennedies, I guess, were excempted from the morality questions, cause, Camelot. They were knights in shining armor, you know.
