Perhaps he was hoping a NORTH Korean movie would win?

Donald Trump is the oldest person to ever assume the office and he STILL can’t name a single Best Picture winner from within his own lifetime.
He also managed to pick the one Best Picture winner that romanticized a White Supremacist rebellion against the United States government.

I assume it is because he can’t read, and couldn’t enjoy this fantastic, but subtitles, movie.

Every single time, I start off thinking “oh come on. It’s not even funny anymore”. It’s 2020 and I keep assuming you’re taking the piss. For whole seconds. Until I get to the video.
Every single time, damnit.
At what point can comedians starting suing because the state is competing with them. Surely you guys have something against the state competing with private enterprise?

He probably thinks Parasite is about him.

I mean, yah. These two things are related. Xenophobia and appealing to a film which romanticizes the confederacy.
The only odd thing is that it was at a rally in Colorado instead of state which was part of the confederacy.

Perhaps at his next rally he’ll promote The Deer Hunter.

He was in CO Springs - basically the deep south of CO. Definitely a home crowd.

Talk is cheap. He should issue an Executive Order restricting the Academy Awards to American films, directors, writers, etc.
