I wonder whose idea it was. The photographers? His? If it was the photographers any decent any decent dad would have bare minimum refused to do it, if not walk out the shoot altogether and formally challenge it

I think I recall reading that was actually a Playboy photographer, who said that he thought it was super weird to have him pull his daughter into what was supposed to be just a lifestyles of the rich and famous article. But I guess they didn't want to second guess Trump

Trump managed to out skeeve a Playboy photographer..

Though he probably would, in some "boy it sure would be nice..." kind of way on "truth".
