David Dilbeck...

It took me a while, but I finally made the connection with what character in a movie Donald Trump reminds me of.

Back in the mid-90's (96) Demi Moore stars in a rather forgettable movie called Striptease. One of the defining characters, played to a tee by Burt Reynolds, was Congressman David Dilbeck. The guy has, shall we say, loose morals, and his campaign chair spends most of the movie arranging, complying with, and covering for his rather kinky tastes.

Nothing hard core porn in the movie, just some topless scenes, and I'm not sure I'd recommend it. But if you've seen it, I think you'll know what I mean.
