Sounds like JFK, LBJ, WJC, DJT and so many other alpha dog politicians.

I would delete LBJ from that list, he wasn't a "rake" until he could afford fashionable clothes which was well into his political career. By that time you would be a fool to be surprised that he had become president.
I also wouldn't include WJC, he was promiscuous from a kid, but seeing pictures of him he wasn't fashionable or wealthy.
As for JFK, yes he was the epitome of a rake, but only a fool would be surprised that he became president.
