Aides keeping eye on ‘poles’

-

THE mainstream media may be in bed with Hillary Clinton’s campaign — but they go to strip clubs with Donald Trump’s.

Page Six has exclusivel­y learned that a trio of senior Trump advisers was fixated on a different type of “pole” the night before Trump’s final debate with Clinton this past week in Las Vegas. The excursion’s been the talk of the campaign trail.

Trump campaign senior communicat­ions adviser Jason Miller — along with female colleagues including senior adviser and surrogate A.J. Delgado and deputy communicat­ions director Jessica Ditto — went with several members of the media from networks, including CNN, NBC and ABC, to Sapphire Las Vegas Strip Club before the big night, according to sources.

With “70,000 square feet of topless entertainm­ent and serving the finest variety of cocktails,” Sin City’s Sapphire bills itself as the largest strip club in the world.

The group that went out with the Trump aides included CNNproduce­r Noah Gray, NBC News reporter Anthony Terrell and a “camerman” from ABC News, sources said. Before the field trip with the media, Miller tweeted, “Yet more evidence of a media-rigged election,” with a link about WikiLeaks and Clinton.

A media insider said, “It was a pretty bad idea, especially the day before the final debate. It’s a serious lapse in judgment.”

Trump’s been facing a barrage of sexual-misconduct allegation­s, which he has denied.

Either way, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, and the stripper crew was back in profession­al form during the debate, tweeting up a storm.

“We’re v happy right now! Go Trump! What a debate!!!” Delgado tweeted. CNN’s Gray was offering up parody suggestion­s to NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” after Trump used the term “bad hombres.”

Reps for NBC, ABC, CNNand the Trump campaign did not comment. Guest dancers scheduled at the club this weekend include porn stars Asa Akira and Britney Amber.
