From Trump’s “assassination” to Biden’s disappearing act…it’s all theatre
'Remakes and sequels have almost killed Hollywood movie making, turning every film into a collection of meta references and nostalgia bait…‘hey remember when this happened in that other movie! That was cool right!’
Now, it seems, they’re trying the same tactics in politics. That’s what we’ve got in the Trump “assassination attempt” – a remake of an old classic – the JFK assassination – for modern audiences.
Hey guys, remember the second shooter? Remember the patsy? Remember when the Secret Service were told to stand down?
Hey all you libertarians and Truthers out there – see, Donald is just like JFK, he’s on YOUR side. He’s opposing that mean old Deep State you don’t like. Honest.
The remake of course is cheaper, cheesier and catered to small, bruised and confused modern minds no longer fully able to remember what real reality looks like and who will easily fail to notice
a) Trump didn’t actually get his head blown off.
b) in his previous 4 years in office he never opposed the Deep State at all; and
c) The Warren Commission wasn’t a collection of scripted questions posted to Twitter piecemeal by PR teams trying to make their candidates look tough.'
