Citizen Kane. Specifically a scene where his second wife is complaining about how he keeps her trapped in Xanadu and she never gets to go out or see anyone anymore.

Uh, nuns made a choice to become nuns? This is super disingenuous because it doesn't do a good idea of actually picking an idea that is imposed upon Christian women externally.

Some of them did. Others of them were forced into it, and then made to assemble Hasbro games as slave labor.

I still haven't seen this yet but my friends who teach film studies/popular culture at Universities all said Trump's interpretation is completely brilliant and has put them out of a job. I think they were being tongue-in-cheek.

Trump wasn't that smart. I once spent hours with him discussing "Citizen Kane." He disagreed when I said it was critical, that Kane is an unsympathetic character. But he couldn't articulate why I was wrong. He kept pointing to the character's financial success, which I didn't dispute.

You know, if there was clearcut evidence that Obama was doing nefarious bad evil illegal stuff wrt personally tapping Trump's phones, it's almost as if it would only make sense for Trump to bring that up during the elction.

Unless we are to believe that Cartman-voiced manchild Mark Levin did some investimugatin' by hisself and literally just unearthed this evidence. The way I see it, it's more likely that, oh, Trump is absolutely full of poo poo and Garrison's gobbling it up like the pitiful rube he is.
