It is a super nice spot but you're 100% right. They are very much trying to get a younger demographic in there, especially when clubs like Fitler and the Pyramid Club cater to those younger people, because they don't have the upper class arrogance associated with the Union League. I have 1 acquaintance (I use that term instead of friend because he's an arrogant jackass) that has asked me to join and the only reason I'd even consider it is for the golf

It's a social club for the Philly upper class. It's a mix of old money, rich businesspeople, social climbers etc. Definitely an older crowd but they have been trying to get young blood in the place. I know a couple people who are on the younger side that are members, but unsurprisingly they have that 'I'm better than you attitude' that comes with being a member as much as the older members. Only reason worth joining is because they own 4 (?) very nice golf courses in the area

Faulkner's widow was w/ the Oz camp at the debate yesterday so it definitely helps them with hammering Fetterman being soft on crime if there's a retrial. I think Shapiro won't be affected because there are numerous instances where he's had to step in and take charge when Krasner's been a fuckhead
