From the April 1965 issue of Esquire, "Trotsky in the Bronx"

And my father said that Trotsky also learned something that day, something very important: in America, it was not demeaning to tip a waiter. In Europe maybe it was a lackey who was a waiter, but not in America. My father said that Trotsky reluctantly seemed to agree about “that tip thing,” then quickly changed the subject. I asked my father whether Trotsky tipped him after that; the answer was “No.”

lmao

plus a Kingfish connection
