      The only thing that can stop the fascist, criminal, fat, demented, pedophile is a pop star. Very cool, very american.

          A six-second cameo in Home Alone 2 does not make that fuckwad a “movie star!”

            And that cameo was his condition for filming in the hotel he owned at the time.

            Didn’t he play the bad guy in Back to the Future II?

              “Sorta” is right. Thomas F. Wilson doesn’t get anywhere near the credit he deserves!

              Think about it: Christopher Lloyd only had to play two roles (“present day” Doc and 1955 Doc). Michael J. Fox only had to play three roles (“present day” Marty, 2015 middle-aged Marty, and Marty’s son). Thomas F. Wilson had to play seven different roles (initial-1985 Biff who was Marty’s dad’s boss, 1955 Biff, changed-1985 Biff with the car detailing business, 2015 elderly Biff, Griff, alternate-1985 Biff-as-Trump-expy, and Mad-Dog), and all of them had to be way more different from each other than the Doc or Marty variants! It was by far the most brilliant acting in the whole franchise, and that was a franchise with a lot of great acting.

              And he didn’t even get “star” billing for it! It’s a crime, I tell you!

                To be fair, Fox also played his daughter in part 2 and his ancestor (Seamus?) in part 3, but rather briefly.

                  WTF I never realized that. And for good reason: I’m re-watching the scene now and I still don’t quite believe it! I always knew something was a little “off” about her, but I thought she was being played as neurodivergent or something, IDK.

                  Seamus, though, I should’ve remembered. That’s on me.

                    She is a little weird. IIRC, at some point she looks directly at the camera. And I always just assumed she was played by Fox, was she not? I didn’t confirm.

              As far as I can tell, all but two are him as himself and the remainder are tiny bit parts (and even then he was basically playing himself as “evil rich guy” but without the name attached). I still deny him the status!

                No, i agree, he has no such status in my opinion either.

                It is pretty strange weird though. As you say, he plays himself and i don’t really think all productions he was in, had the same idea of featuring trump as himself in their movie/film/series. It was mostly him buying himself into it. There may be some exceptions, but I’m sure his hunger for approval/attention were the driving factor of all these appearances.

        I mean, this would 100% be the plot of a kids cartoon.

      Sorry bro, that just cost you the presidency.

      While I have no doubt the swifties can move the needle, I have this feeling that some other recent events have already put him on the path of defeat.

        Never inturupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.

      I feel like most swifties are moderate left to begin with, I doubt many would vote for Donald trump anyways. although becoming an enemy of swifties is the worst pr move someone could ever make
