Today is class we had one of our discussions about chapter 2 of the book The great Gatsby. In this chapter we finally meet toms mistress. She really lives up to the name by living in a run down disgusting area. Not only do we meet her but we meet another side of tom when tom drills the Mistress is the face and brakes her nose. This is a huge part in the book because it really shows how rich and powerful men can do anything they want. (second part) This relates to the real world because it shows that the rich and wealthy do what ever they want because they have money and power. Example of this is today is trump. I have nothing against him but hes the perfect example hes one of the wealthiest people in the county and is a bully who get anything he want. Hes the president now and that is crazy because he pushed and bullied his way to the top. He does what ever he wants and has no repercussion. Just like the character tom in the book.
