Trump As Star Of Frank Capra Film???

[PoliticalChic]

If you've seen Frank Capra's "Mr Smith Goes To Washington" and recall what made Jefferson Smith the kind of guy you'd like to support, see victorious, you'd like an article in this week's WSJ.

1."Capra Could Cast Jimmy Stewart as Trump "Mr. Smith went to Washington 80 years ago and encountered familiar obstacles.

2. ...the title character in another 1939 classic, Frank Capra’s smart political satire “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,” which made its debut 80 years ago Oct. 19.

3. ... the similarities between the two figures are remarkable. Both came to Washington with no previous political experience.

4. When Mr. Smith uncovers graft on the part of the senior senator from his state, the political machinery revs up against him full-bore. Shining a lantern on political corruption, Mr. Smith is himself accused of corrupt dealing—sound familiar?—by critics who say Mr. Smith’s legislation to start a boys’ camp will line the senator’s own pockets.

5. The allegation is false, but that doesn’t stop a throng of senators from hastily calling for Mr. Smith’s expulsion from the Senate. Nancy Pelosi may want to view Capra’s film again to see how well that worked out."
Opinion | Capra Could Cast Jimmy Stewart as Trump



6. Bet Chuck Schumer saw the film.
He warned Trump that he better play ball with the Deep State or he'd get what Mr. Smith got....

"Schumer warns Trump: Intel officials 'have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you'

Enter Hillary, Mueller, Comey, Clapper, Brennan, et al.....stage Left chanting 'The play's the thing. Wherein I'll catch the conscience of the king."

Jimmy Stewart was a great actor. But he would struggle to convince as a foul mouthed, draft dodging,pussy grabbing conman.

Our amazing Pres.Trump is the real life Mr Smith who goes to Washington and kicks butt. ...

You've managed to produce a largely vapid post.

I'll make two assumptions.....first that it represents your thinking ability, and second, that you rather a party that promises this:

1. America would fall back to this:
“Team Obama: Sorry, America, the ‘new normal’ may be here to stay

The good times may be over for good. In a speech to the Economic Club of New York yesterday, US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said the US GDP growth rate, adjusted for inflation, is now projected to run a little above 2% a year.”
Team Obama: Sorry, America, the 'new normal' may be here to stay - AEI


2. The hard working American taxpayer would pay for illegal alien's healthcare

3. There'd be no penalty for sneaking over the border.....no sovereignty.

4. The world's worst state sponsor of terrorism would have nuclear weapons.

5. Infanticide, post-birth abortion, would be legalized

6. Taxes would be increased and tax cuts reversed

7. Sharia would become de rigueur

8. Free speech would be outlawed as 'hate speech.

9. Jewish persons would have to find shelter elsewhere

10. We could look forward to the end of private health insurance, reparations for slavery and drug dealers, financial security for those who ‘don’t care to work,’ abortion rights for 'transwomen (men), and packing the Supreme Court.

11. The abolition of prisons so that convicted criminals would be free to prey on innocent citizens. ."AOC Wants to Abolish Prisons

...saying that lawmakers needed to explore the mass release of America's prison population.



Oh....and this....

12. Abortion rights for men




What sort of imbecile would support this???

Raise your paw.

What kind of mental illness is required to see Trump as innocently idealistic and willing to sacrifice everything for the common man? If I remember correctly it was Mr. Smith and the boy scouts VS a corrupt dam project. In today's climate a good analogy would be something like a national wildlife refuge VS oil exploration. Trump comes down solidly on the side of those looking to make a fast buck off public lands.

America has learned of the money-grubbing corruption of the Clinton Crime Familly and the Bidens.....

$millions to sell America out.

...and of the mafia like Deep State.



It takes a deeply jaded individual to support this over a man doing this for the average American:

"A Tale of Two Economies
Trump’s policies are helping workers more than Obama’s did.


Time to wake up from the Barack Obama economy, folks, and admit how many more Americans are prospering from the faster economic growth and tighter labor market after the policy changes of 2017. "

Speaking of classic films, here is another dope documenting her ability to be the Democrat nominee for President:

‘He reminds me of the guy in ‘The Wizard of Oz,’ ” Sen. Kamala Harris said of President Trump in last month’s debate. “When you pull back the curtain, it’s a really small dude.”


What a maroon!!!


She confused the wizard with the munchkins......

 

[PoliticalChic]

"Mr. Trump is a born disrupter. Mr. Smith has disrupter status thrust upon him but comes to relish it no less. Mr. Trump rails endlessly about the press’s distortion of his record. When Mr. Smith’s young Boy Rangers ride bicycles to his rescue, their newspapers—the only ones not on the payroll of corrupt tycoons and politicians—are confiscated. The radio stations are also all on the take. The media controls the narrative; the public is kept in the dark.

Reminiscent of Mr. Trump’s frequent “I’m not a politician” disclaimer, an all but broken, filibuster-weary Jefferson Smith acknowledges his outsider status to his fellow senators in a climactic scene: “A guy like me should never be allowed to get in here in the first place.” But he was. And despite all efforts to stop him, so was Mr. Trump.

Recent U.S. presidents all gave up on the fight to control illegal immigration as a lost cause. For Mr. Trump it is his signature issue. It’s as if he’s channeling Jefferson Smith’s saying: “You fight for the lost causes harder than any others.”

His enemies will shudder at the idea, but in Donald Trump, a tireless fighter against Washington corruption and the complacent status quo, America may have found not its Wizard of Oz but its Frank Capra president."

Citizen Kane is a good place to start if you are looking for Trump-like movie characters.

There was nothing for him to run. Perhaps his ego only. Why put up with all of this aggravation? He still has to live his final years and would have much less in his private life. The lifers that populate D.C. and never leave got him elected. It looks like they are going to give one who just died another King's death sendoff. Maybe they will grow wise and make it private.

Actually, the problem with the GOP is that it watches "Its a Wonderful Life" and thinks that Mr. Potter is the hero. Not that dirty stinking New Deal Commie George Bailey.
