The Apprentice (2024) (www.imdb.com)

The Apprentice's remarkable acting and screenwriting genuinely encapsulates Trump's rise to power. The writers failed to succumb to simple mockery, but laid bare cause and effect sans nauseam. My disbelief has finally yielded to understanding why there's no better representative for contemporary USA; Donald Trump is the worst victim of toxic masculinity.

i really want to see this one - we were set to go see it but our local Alamo stopped showing it sooner than we expected. The fact that Trump vehemently opposed the creation of this movie is all you need to know. Jeremy Strong is the icing on top.

I've seen enough of trump. Not interested in spending any more time with him even if he is humiliated the entire time.

One has to know their enemy to defeat them. More understanding helps to endure.

Jeremy Strong was a powerhouse. His last name is an understatement.
