FYI, Trump was neither born in nor spent his entire life in “New York, New York.” You are obviously not familiar with New York City. Trump was born in Jamaica, (Queens) NY, where he was raised. That is a 30 minutes subway ride but light years away from where he lives today in New York, (Manhattan) New York. Jamaica’s demographics have changed dramatically since Trump was raised there, but it was a middle-working class neighborhood through the 60s.

Trump grew up in Jamaica Estates and not in Jamaica. Jaimaica Estates was and still is upper class.

Was discussing these fine socio-economic nuances with the Sainted Spouse, and was reminded of the late, great Ogden Nash, and with apologies to Himself as I am going from memory ...

Here’s to Westchester County
Society’s most uppercrust shelf
Where Scarsdale speaks only to Bronxville
And Bronxville speaks but to itself.
