It's like when the world's tackiest and trashiest people get money and you're like, oh, that's not just new money.

That's trashy new money.

And they're like, you know, we're going to have mayo sandwiches and then we're going to have neon disco lights.

You're like, yeah, or maybe you could have, I don't know, a lawn with like tulips.

They're like, nah, tulips are gay.

We're going to have like disco balls.

We're going to have UFC fights on the lawn.

This is wealth.

And he's that guy.

He's like a vulgarian, an uncouth vulgarian.

I always think about this.

God gives the wrong people money all the time, right?

Why can't good, decent people with good taste get the money?

Can you imagine the White House?

Instead of this $300 million ballroom slash bunker,

I don't know, maybe a wing for visitors and diplomats and children and a garden, something beautiful, right?

Maybe you bring in some like elegant designers and architects.

No, not Donald Trump.

He wants to make everything shiny and big like Mar-a-Lago, right?

It's all, it's interesting that you said this, it's all performative.
