I really don't understand why in the fuck would you make a movie about Trump at this point in time. The guy is dreaming about becoming a dictator for the US and is a convicted felon. Dude doesn't need any more publicity.

Because seeing his behavior is different than hearing about it. I bet the reality of him raping Melania will hit home a little harder for at least one person in the audience when they see it reenacted rather than imagine it.

I have barely given Trump any attention this cycle because I already knew I would vote against him and he isn’t worth my time, but I am very interested in seeing this film.
