There are many things that could be said about his parties but for some reason what gets me more than all the rest is that no one ever looks like they want to be there. No one smiles that isn't being paid to.
Mar A Lago is already a palace set to host parties constantly, the coat isn’t as high as Ive seen claimed, but Gatsby themed? 1. Disrespectful to the American people, if they read Gatsby and participated. & 2. They can’t read.
The King holds court with his entertainment for his distinguished guests while the peasants starve. But hey, at least you held up a sign for a few hours if the weather was nice and you might even do it again!
I mean...a lesson (not a good one) you could take away from Gatsby is the rich and powerful (Gatsby was only rich) are unconscionable and that they can and will get away with murder. You could take a lessons that retreating into your wealth and privilege allows you to do whatever you want and be free from consequences like Tom and Daisy.
They clearly aren't the lessons you are meant to take away but if rich people had empathy they wouldn't be rich.
You know, every time I see clips from this, they just get worse. I normally wouldn't care what adult people do with their own money. He's the freaking President of the United States. Don't be tone deaf and show some damned class.
Everything about Trump is "I'm better than you, I'm going to show you, and, in fact, you're so worthless I need to exterminate you." Billionaires are equals. Millionaires are lackeys. Poors are expendables that he wants working salt mines and breeding like cockroaches to replace the losses from cutting back safety regulations. If he could, he'd be hunting people for sport.
Not every time he goes- he won't tell them when he's going so they need to keep rooms booked at all places at all times (they had one instance of not being able to get a room near him on such short notice, now they have no choice).

"Don't be tone deaf and show some damned class." C'mon now. This Donald Trump we're talking about.
GreaseMonkeyOfLove
He can’t even spell “class”… and the word “taste” is only associated with KFC taco bowls.
IgnisInvictus
I know... holy shit I know. I never want to hear anyone ever again bitching about a democrat lacking class. Tan suit my ass.

So how did he manage to charge this to the tax payer? Dumpf would never spend his own money.
meme2theextreme
My educated guess? Million dollar cover change to attend.

Yup, for his government-paid security detail, regular guests 250K.
