|
|
<p>On the eve of 2016 election, a filmmaker decides to make a point about the
|
||
|
|
republican candidate for the USA presidency, Donald Trump, focusing on the
|
||
|
|
struggles of an old lady in Scotland, whose water have been cut with the
|
||
|
|
constructor of Trump gold course.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For the plot, you can imagine how it would go: focusing on the "don't care
|
||
|
|
about others" from Donald, which failed to recognize he (and his business)
|
||
|
|
harmed some other folk. Also, you can imagine that his whole family --
|
||
|
|
specially Donald Trump Jr -- would <em>also</em> not give a shit about their actions
|
||
|
|
affecting someone else. And you can expect that there is a lot of speculation
|
||
|
|
that the Trump family is actually using politics to force people out of their
|
||
|
|
homes so they can built a bigger golf course.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Where the movie falls short, though, is the feeling that the filmmakers thought
|
||
|
|
they could actually make a dent on Trump's campaign for presidency using just
|
||
|
|
one story. Sure, a 92-year-old lady that gets cut from her water supply, have
|
||
|
|
to have her children bring bottled water so she can have water to drink and
|
||
|
|
only wishes to have a real shower, all that while Trump Corporation (and his
|
||
|
|
son) keep saying that they will fix the problem, do absolutely nothing and,
|
||
|
|
when a neighbor takes the matter in his own hand and gets sue for it, it is
|
||
|
|
infuriating, but you don't expect that voters in the USA -- voters that would
|
||
|
|
(and did) vote for Trump -- would care about some old lady in Scotland, do you?</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>In this line of "trying to make you furious", there are some selected quotes
|
||
|
|
from voters, like "Maybe she shouldn't have water anyway" from a man, and two
|
||
|
|
Trump supporters saying they they understand the neighbor going after a power
|
||
|
|
"bigger than him", 'cause they are also going after a power bigger than them,
|
||
|
|
which is Hillary Clinton. Oh, sure you understand, but <em>you're supporting the
|
||
|
|
power bigger than him, you dumb fucks</em>! </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>(See, it works, sometimes.)</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If they have picked up more stories, shown more people affected by the lack of
|
||
|
|
sympathy of the Trump Corporation and such, maybe it would feel more like a
|
||
|
|
real contender, as sad as it is a 92-year-old woman having no water to shower
|
||
|
|
or even drink.</p>
