Most often true, but I was mentioning the 'image' that many have of the GOP.
it's rather the question of propriety of such a performer at a venue like THE WHITE HOUSE.

It's possible the WH didn't think a whole lot about it until they were "informed" on KR's background, and then reassessed their choce.Btw, the so-called "image problem" is a matter of perspective. "Populism" is overrated.
