Major Kong is played by Slim Pickens - for laughs - and is nothing like Trump. I mean, unless you think Trump is stupid enough to ride a nuclear bomb.

A good performance by Pickens btw. John Wayne, a smart man, was so insulted to be invited to play this part. No fool he.

"Major Kong is played by Slim Pickens - for laughs..."

"Survival kit contents check. In them you'll find:
One forty-five caliber automatic
Two boxes of ammunition
Four days' concentrated emergency rations
One drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills
One miniature combination Russian phrase book and Bible
One hundred dollars in rubles
One hundred dollars in gold
Nine packs of chewing gum
One issue of prophylactics
Three lipsticks
Three pair of nylon stockings.

Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff."

I think Peter Sellers was actually originally supposed to play Maj. Kong (along with the other characters he played), but he hurt his back and couldn’t get in and out of the B-52 cockpit.
