(43,198 posts)He's a weird combination of old money entitlement and new money tackiness and yet doesn't really fall into either category.

(10,885 posts)as proven by the tRump's themselves. IF, and that's a big IF, these grifters have any money in their pockets, it certainly wasn't earned by any "class" of the tRump family, and most likely wasn't earned honorably at all.
I've said from the beginning and will reiterate today that which has become my favorite description of the tRump family circumstances: "They'll unravel like a cheap Walmart sweater." It has begun, folks, and is picking up speed exponentially. Pop the popcorn, grab a drink and pull up a comfortable chair. The show is about to begin.

(9,709 posts)the size of one of those you would see at a car dealership. They still considered Mar-a-Lago as "Marjorie's place" and he was uncouth to want such a monstrosity on the property. He lost that battle and every invitation from the old and new money. I've been down here since '89 and can tell you Palm Beachers are, for the most part, very kind, generous, good-humored and had he been decent they would have welcomed him. He was nor is any of those things.

(11,744 posts)Trump is the embodiment of the "Ugly American". He is vulgar, ignorant, has no sense of culture, and has no desire to learn about anything.
Everything to Trump is a transaction and he likely has no true friends, just business partners.
The only people who really look up to or admire Trump are ignorant, bigoted people, who have bought in to the image that Trump has tried to create for himself as a savvy, tough, business person.

(17,984 posts)I remember going on a 6 week trip to Ireland right after college. I was bumming around the youth hostels, hitching rides, doing the poor man's vacation thing. I met this couple at a pub, and the husband began talking to me, explaining all sorts of things about Irish history and politics. After an hour, the wife was ready to leave but the husband wanted to talk some more, so they invited me to dinner. Well, I had no idea that we would be dinning in the poshest hotel in all of Ireland. I was supposed to wear a jacket, but the only thing I had was a winter coat (which I wore and was embarrassed about). No one mentioned it. We sat down, and ordered the most expensive meal I have ever eaten. At no time did anyone ever make me feel like I was less than they were. I will always remember that night.
