Golden showers and windmills (and other tired bullshit)... same as it ever was.
At the NRSC conference in Palm Beach on Thursday, donors and lobbyists were treated to a presentation on polling that showed Republicans were in a strong spot to take back the Senate, and that Biden’s poll numbers had dropped, particularly among independents, according to people familiar with research. The agenda did not include any panels on election fraud, but instead offered donors a golf session with Jack Nicklaus and discussions about how Republicans are performing on digital fundraising, foreign policy and infrastructure.
In Trump’s address, one of the final events of the retreat, the former president focused on re-litigating grievances he has retained since leaving office.
...
Unprompted, he brought up an unsubstantiated claim he had interactions with prostitutes in Moscow before he ran for president.
“I’m not into golden showers,” he told the crowd. “You know the great thing, our great first lady — ‘That one,’ she said, ‘I don’t believe that one.’ ”
After extensively praising Chinese President Xi Jinping for his intellect and touting his good relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin, he also returned to his long-standing hatred of windmills, referencing a new plan by the Biden administration to expand the number of offshore wind turbines.
“It’s so sad when you see that they are approving these windmills — worst form of energy, the most expensive,” he said. “You talk about carbon emissions, well they are making them. More goes into the air than if you ran something for 30 years.”

Tax fraud, insurance fraud, uncountable forms and expressions of bigotry, misogyny and xenophobia, incestual desires if not actions, sexually assaulting 20 some women and bragging about it, being a pawn of foreign dictators... sure that's all believable but water sports with russian hookers "that ONE" is a bridge too far.
