What do Tom’s actions at the beginning of chapter 2 say about his opinion of George Wilson?

Hello! I looked this question up to see if it was a multiple-choice type of question. Since I found nothing online, I will give you an open answer that is very likely to help you.

Tom's actions at the beginning of chapter 2 show he thinks George Wilson is inferior to him and easily bullied.

Explanation:

To be fair, that is Tom Buchanan's opinion about most of the world. Tom is a very wealthy man, "old money" as a matter of fact, since he comes from a genealogy of rich people. Having known nothing but privilege his whole life, and having nature on his side, Tom is a bully. He is a tall and strong man who knows he is powerful. He moves around with the confidence of someone who can convince, usually by force, anyone to do anything he wants.

Tom has a beautiful wife, but he is not content. He also has a lover, Myrtle, George Wilson's wife. At the beginning of chapter 2, he drags the narrator, Nick, to Wilson's garage. His treatment of Wilson shows how much he loathes the man. Wilson is nothing to Tom. He bullies him into subservience, puts him in his place with confidence and ease. The excerpt below, from chapter 2, is where we can see evidence of that:

‘Hello, Wilson, old man,’ said Tom, slapping him jovially  on the shoulder. ‘How’s business?’

‘I can’t complain,’ answered Wilson unconvincingly.  ‘When are you going to sell me that car?’

‘Next week; I’ve got my man working on it now.’

‘Works pretty slow, don’t he?’

‘No, he doesn’t,’ said Tom coldly. ‘And if you feel that way  about it, maybe I’d better sell it somewhere else after all.’

‘I don’t mean that,’ explained Wilson quickly. ‘I just  meant——‘

His voice faded off and Tom glanced impatiently around  the garage.
