Proper analogy and a classic film.
“You buy a hat like this, I bet you get a free bowl of soup.” — Al Czervik
Kurt Schlicter also made that analogy.
I said that when Trump started running for President...
My favorite line was to the Judge at the country club...
“I don’t like the people who hang around here. I’m just here to see if I want to buy this place.”
Not the first time life has imitated Caddyshack.
I think the reason Caddyshack has such long “legs” is because Harold Ramis really put his finger on some actual realities of life, and did a good of depicting them with humor.
As Rush Limbaugh has said, humor has to have some truth underneath to be really funny.
Not possible now... Even in kids comedy shows...
There’s definitely some truth to this whole analogy. But, I think the President takes it to a completely different level. I’ve never been near the guy, just seen him on tv, like most of us. Back in the day, before he moved to the White House and was still building things, he was known to show up on sites and talk to the workers. The guys mixing cement and welding. When you watch him go places and he goes to talk to the cops, he seem genuine.
Watch the videos of him crashing weddings at his place in New Jersey. He comes across as a regular guy.
How many of us, when we watch him interact with folks, don’t even think about the fact that he’s a billionaire. Or, the Most Powerful Man on the Planet, for that matter. He just comes across as a regular guy. Which is definitely one of the things the Elite’s hate about him. He doesn’t look down his nose at anyone. And his sense of humor is so far beyond what any of them can comprehend, it’s comical.
If you watch one of the interviews he did with Hannity. Done in a hangar after one of his rallies. He starts talking about the money the last guy gave to the Iranians. He makes an off-the cuff remark....something to the effect...some guy is walking around with $150 million. I’d hate to be that guy.....or something to that effect and he does it with a chuckle. He’s the guy you want to hang out with at the bbq because he’s fun to be around.
Absolutely hilarious movie, one of the best. “How you doin’ folks, howaya, how ya doin’, good to see ya, howaya?”
