This is a mock-setup of a hypothetical celebrity sales-pitch for the idealistic podium of our arguably commerce-politicized 'TrumpUSA.'
What do you find dreamy about capitalism/consumerism?
What will be the folklore of the Trump Administration?

"My name is Tom Cruise, and I'm your personal Real-World advocate for the adsorption of commerce-related product-branding, a new religion coordinated with Scientology idealism and perhaps (arguably) Catholic open-mindedness.
We want to sell you the marketability of seemingly heretical American designs in consumer-goods and product-logos, so you will not shun the Western world's embracing of graphic humanist modelling 'pedestals' such as Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue or Starbucks coffee or cell phones for kids!
The Middle East (various fundamentalist Muslim groups from Syria, Iran, etc., etc.) view America as a morally-lax and ethically-vulnerable system of pirates, profiteers, and playboys. There's a good reason that the Taliban attacked the World Trade Center in 2001. They didn't want to look like nuts, and it's why I made the politically-incendiary films Lions for Lambs, Born on the 4th of July, and Valkyrie. I'm Tom Cruise, and I want you to feel better about capitalism...
I don't want you to be alarmed at my enthusiasm. There's a reason I'm a 'celebrity.' There's a reason Americans love the reality-scenario TV series The Real World (MTV). That reason is --- America, unlike other nations (or democracies) is not shying away from the explicit marketing of lifestyle-related 'items.' It's why Playboy Magazine is so popular, and it's why a capitalism-controversy film such as Syriana is not censored by American film-boards. Are you disinformed about TrumpUSA?"
