They should realize by now that they aren't going to be welcome back in NY high society after all this.

10. Trump never could break into NY "high society"-- they saw him for what he always was...

... Crass, gross, narcissistic, classless. The kind of man who would start a charity for children with cancer, then use the funds as his personal piggy-bank.

It’s not just old-money versus new-money these days, iirc. It’s that you would not only have good manners, but that you would have some sense of contributing something to society, or the country, something beyond just yourself.

Trump, by all accounts, craved to be acknowledged and accepted at that level, and resented it that he never was. But hey, he became El Caudillo del Mar A Lago instead, then potus.

They claimed it's because the new school has more in-person classes. But the school they took the kids out of is switching to fully in-person, indoors next week, so their excuse is BS.
