The Trump Prophecy

I'll say right now I'm not a fan of Trump but I find his support by the Republicans and the evangelical community to be puzzling. The man is a New York Liberal. He was a registered democrat for most of his life. He never was a religious or pious man. He's been married three times, cheated on every single wife he has and yet is seen as being a family man.

How is this even possible? It's because some people simply don't care who the candidate is and just blindly support the guy with a "D" or "R" beside his name. And this movie is a perfect example of this.

For some reason we're dealing with people that believe that God not only exists but actually cares about how is in charge of the United States. He doesn't seemingly care about any other country like North Korea. No, only the United States matters in his eyes or at least that's what a lot of American evangelicals seem to believe.

What we have in this movie is terrible acting. Terrible special effects. Terrible reasons for supporting Donald Trump and a desire to ignore all the bad stuff he's done.

And yet the faithful will go see it, praise it's message, and give it 10/10 because they're a bunch of sheep. There's a reason why a congregation is called a "flock". They just sit there and accept whatever is told to them.

Maybe they'll wake up in a couple of years when America is no longer a superpower.

If I could give it less that one I would. One of the worst movies I've seen in the past ten years and I've seen a lot of awful movies.

Didn't make it to the end.

This is the sixth movie (out of 930) that I've awarded a single star. It is truly awful.

I should point out that I'm not really a Trump fan and a lapsed Christian. I've always found the Christian support of Trump somewhat puzzling since he seems to me to be one of the least Christian people you could ever wish to meet.

Anyway the film tells the story of a firefighter Mark Taylor who suffering from PTSD has a prophecy that Trump will become president. This is played out through the first part of the movie and there is undoubtedly an interesting story in it. Anyway unfortunately that was ignored in favour of pushing christian and right wing rhetoric. The second half of the film was an uncomfortable watch and I have no doubt many people would struggle to make it to the end of the film. Anyway I did make it to the end of the film, so I'm comfortable with awarding it with 1 star.

Like a train wreck I had to watch. I feel for people who need some sign or message to carry on in life. Maybe therapy and not prophecy would be a better recommendation. This movie tried and failed.
