Dina’s Digital Diner — YOU’RE HIRED!

Perhaps the only other people capable of as much shameless self-promotion as Donald Trump are presidential candidates. In order to be the leader of the free world, a candidate must constantly remind the great unwashed of how smart, forward-thinking, and generally awesome they are.

Sometime before he became a presidential candidate, Rudolph Giuliani did a brief skit in drag with that other well-known New Yawkah, Donald Trump. The clip is available at youtube.com at this address . If memory serves correctly, the skit was part of a Saturday Night Live episode a few years ago.

Rudy

Mr. Giuliani is at this writing the front runner for the Republican nomination, safely ahead of John McCain and the other wannabes, despite his less-than-rock-ribbed conservative views on gun control, abortion and gay rights. Rudi seems to have gotten above the typically divisive conservative agenda by sheer force of personality and his record as Mayor of New York during the 9/11 tragedy. Even a stint in drag can’t seem to stop conservative voters from liking him. I won’t even mention the idea of closet crossdressing Republicans….well maybe only with this very remark. (Smirk)

The clip is only mildly amusing but (who only wish we could be the presumptive Republican presidential nominee with drag in our backgrounds) should be impressed by the attention to detail and the oh-so-femme voice Hizzoner puts on to entice Mr. Trump. So taken is he with the coquettish mystery lady, The Donald even plants a brief kiss on the perfumed neck of Miss Giuliani. Oddly enough, Trump now gets more attention for his cantilevered hair-do than any working drag queen in New Yawk or ‘Frisco.

Great minds do think alike after all.

About the Author ()

I started crossdressing and going out publicly in 1988. I joined the Renaissance group in the Philadelphia area that year and later became chapter leader for two years in the '90s. I always enjoyed writing and wrote for the Renaissance newsletter and magazine throughout my membership years. I've been writing for TGForum for several years now. I also contributed items to LadyLike magazine and other TG publications before the advent of the internet. My hobby-within-a-hobby is singing live as my alter-ego Dina Sinatra and I have had the opportunity to do that with several accommodating performers and in a number of venues over the years since the mid-1990s. In the Diner column items here, I try to relate crossdressing or transgender themes (and my own pet peeves and fetishes) to the larger world -- and vice versa.
