This is a fascinating video of Donald Trump critiquing Citizen Kane – the iconic film on wealth and moral corruption. It’s a little surreal watching a much younger Trump wrestle with the meaning of the movie. Even his body language seems to pull the curtain back a little. “Perhaps I can understand that…” when talking about the distance growing between a husband and wife. Sad — and I mean that in the most sincere way.
The President is a lightning rod for all sorts of commentary. Friends have been lost and families upended over his administration. But lost in the media maelstrom is the simple fact that Donald Trump is a man like any other. He does terrific things — he does reckless things. He talks about being isolated and the need to “have your guard up, more so than if your didn’t have wealth.” He’s a man that understands walls.
Like us all.
