So Bill Clinton is regularly excoriated for violating the sanctity of the White House and Oval office with his extra curricular activities and you're doing the same to a President who might prefer doing them elsewhere?

Hey how about we put body cams on all politicians? Yeah right?! Ones that run 24/7 and cannot be taken off or shut off from the moment they take office until they leave office.

Of course we'd need an enormous and hugely expensive Federal bureaucracy to monitor these cameras for signs of impropriety and of course they'd need sweeping powers to decide what footage would be released and released to who and when, but it's a small price to pay to keep them from dipping their wick where they ain't supposed to.
