I'm not a movie guy, but I did see a clip of Rodney Dangerfield in college giving lessons to his classmates about how the 'real world' works. He sounded like Trump.

While I like the analysis the best movie character a I have seen that best comes across as Trump is in the 1980 movie, “Just Tell Me What You Want”.

Alan King, best role he ever had, plays Financier, Industrialist, Real Estate Tycoon Max Hershel. Everything is for sale and everything is a deal to be negotiated.

This is much closer to real life Donald Trump than anything I have seen and it is a fun movie to watch.

I think the movie IDIOCRACY better describes the times we live in.

Could be. Dwayne Johnson is considering a run for POTUS.

This is brilliant. I'm in tune with it.

Add a few bells and this could be a Christmas story.

You are not the only one to agree with this theory. Though your article is far more detailed and in depth. Go HERE.

“Lou Loomis (Bryan Doyle Murray)”

Was Brian’s name spelled that way in the same Trivial Pursuit version owned by Brian’s son, the Bubble Boy?

I have seen Trivial Pursuit Cards misprinted.

A guy I know once tried to win a game by claiming the “Moops” invaded Spain.

so POTUS is Al Czervik the real estate mogul ?

Al Czervik exclaimed -“I tell ya, golf courses and cemeteries are the biggest wastes of prime real estate”.

POTUS loves golf courses....

For a better example of Trump, here he is in “Back to School” on the first day of Business class.
