America’s new superhero

To the Editor

Year after year Hollywood repeatedly produces highly successful action packed movies where the superhero takes on all enemies, whether they be invading aliens, swamp monsters, or deep state corruption. Regardless of political or sport affiliations, audiences thrive on high-energy, macho superheroes who defy all odds in the relentless fight for truth, justice, and the American way.
Americans like winners, and Trump is the natural transition from the silver screen to the Oval Office.  Now audiences can see in real-time, a real-life person of action who is winning against crime, corruption, and international threats. The Ironman parallel is especially striking … extremely smart, hugely rich, endless energy source, and a relentless drive to fight evil at all levels. Think about it, every time we go to the movies, we see the Trump-man in action.  It doesn’t matter how you look or what you say, just defeat the enemy at all costs. From Dirty Harry’s “Go ahead, make my day” to Thor’s “Fortunately, I am mighty,” audiences love Trump’s high-energy, tough-man approach to draining the swamp.
It’s like Hollywood has been writing Trump scripts ever since it made Ben Hur.  So find your seat in your favorite presidential chariot at a theater near you, and watch Donald skillfully execute the next Mission Impossible.
