Donald Trump on the big screen 60 years ago.

Who will be the modern version of Patricia Neal and finally expose him? From reading the posts tonight about his Hitler Rally, it appears we might need some extra help and fast. Watching Mueller and the press expose the orange anus is like watching someone put out a house fire with a water hose.

I believe that Trump's supporters subconsciously don't view or project themselves as being "innocent."

Griffith's character made the mistake of personally tearing down the intelligence of and insulting his own supporters along with their wants or needs.

...Trump could moon his audiences and call them "fucking morons" to their faces, and they'd lap it up. "Oh, how politically incorrect he's being! Make them Lib'ruls squirm! Haw, haw, haw!"
