Donald Trump may be worth "in excess of TEN BILLION DOLLARS," but according to fellow presidential hopeful Marco Rubio, money can't buy class.
"To conduct the presidency, it has to be done in a dignified way, with a level of class," Rubio said during an appearance on Fox and Friends. "I don't think the way [Donald Trump has] behaved over the last few weeks is either dignified or worthy of the office he seeks."
Rubio didn't say which Trump moment he considered less than classy: Was it reading Sen. Lindsey Graham's personal phone number to a crowd of Trump supporters in South Carolina? Or criticizing Sen. John McCain's five years as a prisoner of war?

Either way, Rubio went for the kill, adding that, "we already have a president now that has no class."
