Well now I see that Clooney is going to do an 8 part series on Watergate. Article does not say if he is playing a part. I am sure he wants to play Robert Redford's old role from the 1974 "All the President's Men" as Bob Woodward.
To be sure this will be more about President Trump than Nixon and the MSM will cover it so.
Amazing. The Lying Left never gives up.
How much corruption have the Leftist Presidents perpetrated since Watergate? How much of that corruption is portrayed in its true light by the corrupt Leftist entertainment regime?
Time to replace Leftist entertainment regime with a new, godly, America-loving entertainment regime.
Hope Netflix looses tons of money on this stinker.
It’s incredible how minuscule Watergate seems now compared to FBI gate.
It will only remind people how trivial that event was compared to what we are experiencing now.
What next, Clooney? Why not an exposé of how Macys raises prices to lower them before the sale??
Watergate is NOTHING compared to Clinton Obama Deepstate scandals.
Will this production point out that this the only time in Hillary’s career that she was held accountable for her actions?
Watergate. . . a Sunday School picnic compared to the left’s deviant practices.
Will they mention that their inside source “deep throat” was the FBI #2?
apparently, it wasn’t enough that clooney’s latest cinematic garbage with matt damon was a disaster. So I’ll just say in advance, that nonuse of the “select” button is me not watching.
It’s of interest to note that “clooney” can be found in the dictionary between “clap” and “crap.”
I won’t watch anything with Clooney in it . . .
With Clooney involved we know two things:
1 It will be biased as hell and Nixon will look more like Trump than Nixon.
2 It will suck dead rat butt. Clooney poisons everything he touches. Look for it to flop like a beached fish.
Every social/political group with any history has a ‘golden era’ where their cause came out victorious and as such stays green in their memory. Almost always there is selective memory at work as inconvenient truths and facts are forgot while the victories are magnified. As a rule, it appears that these periods have to be at least 25 years in the past for this selective memory to work, probably a normal human psychology quirk.
Conservatives usually will pick the Reagan Presidency (1980-89) to remember in this manner, while the LEFT will remember the delicious chase and destruction of Richard Nixon (1971-3), primarily through his own hubris. The memory of a crusading newspaper and an avenging media working together against a prickly and un-photogenic Nixon and the parade of maligned henchmen in the hot seats of the Senate Watergate Committee probably feels like the best of the LEFT in recent history!
So it is no surprise that the current LEFT MSM & Hollywood would like to remind us of how similar Nixon is to Trump for, rest assured, that that contextual theme will be strong in this series. Bet on it!
I’m sure they will figure a way to blow Watergate into way more than it ever was. I’d also assume some of the point of this is to take people’s minds off some of the real corruption that occurred later on in more recent history. I don’t see where the real Watergate episode is worth an 8-part series.
