Old Money and New Money: The manners and style of Bushes and Trumps

[Abu Pepe]

The Bushes are old money and have both a sense of decorum, class and taste. The Trumps like expensive but crass, tasteless shit the same as suddenly rich etertainers or third world dictators. A sort of gilded trashiness.

Given the fact Trump inherited his money and had access to the resources and institutions that should have taught him some class. But he chose to be crass.

"Money doesn't buy class".

3. It really doesn't.nt

2. When you can't differentiate 'status' and 'class', you inevitably end up with tacky

I'm just saying

4. Very good point.

And my whole point was not to defend inherited wealth but just to recognize its association with art patronage, civil discourse and education vs Donald Trump who inherited his wealth but lays on a bed eating crappy fast food and and tweeting about what he is watching on television.
