Trump is no arbiter of good taste.

He makes judgment on what he likes or does not like; who cares.

History will make the final judgment.

In the film Amadeus, the Emperor loved the music of Salieri.
The film got some facts wrong but not that.

How many Salieri operas are shown today?

Some consider Mozart's Don Giovanni the greatest opera ever written.
I do not expect that opera to be shown at Kennedy Center while Trump is in charge.
Trump probably does not like the ending of that opera.
