I'm here to ruin your reference by giving my two sense. I think Carousel of Progress doesn't need to be removed, but a serious update wouldn't hurt, and would fit with Walt's vision.
I honestly wish I didn't have to revisit this, but as you said Tony, "ARE YOU F***ING KIDDING ME, AMERICA?" Sadly, no. This is still the dumbest timeline.
I'm a 15 year old kid from some dusty old town in Pennsylvania and I haven't the slightest clue about politics and have no room to talk but that Trump animatronic is the worst goddamn thing i've ever seen in my entire fucking life Disney is usually on point with making realistic accurate animatronics, but Donald Trump's animatronic doesn't even resemble him to a point where it wouldn't be hard to believe they spray painted a hillary animatronic with orange paint and gave it a blonde toupee
O Mighty Jerk, keeper of comedy, defender of Disneyland, and bringer of non-stop subversive topical wonderousness, you have saved my sense of humor!!! For that, I most humbly thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Kind of like what's happening now with that whole "fake news" thing going on. Listen, I know Americans are easily manipulated, but as Count Jackula himself said, "The tools you use to silence people today become the tools that are used to silence you tomorrow." Or something to that effect. Point being, favoritism is never an okay thing to do.
KRSeriphem Do you still disagree now that both his son, son in-law, and various members of his inner circle have caught meeting Russian agents? As well as the President himself giving classified information to the Russians?
MrGoblin1000 If that were as concrete as you make it out to be, then you wouldn't be opening with that. You'd be opening with, "Trump's about to be indicted for selling secrets to the Russians." Here's the thing, man: with Trump-Russia, people made the accusation before the evidence. The most we had to go on was that time he jokingly asked Russia to find Hilary's deleted emails, and the times he said we should try to get along with Putin. That's it. That, coupled with the fact he upset the odds, is the reason people are banging on about Trump-Russia. They don't have any evidence that a crime was committed, they're just trying to cover up the fact that the DNC cheated their best choice out of a nomination, that Hilary lost over a billion dollars on a failed campaign, and now they don't want to admit the massive cock-up they committed. THAT is what Trump-Russia is about. THAT is why nobody is buying it: because if there was actual, concrete evidence to indict and/or impeach Trump, then he'd have been indicted already. But his adversaries can't get at him legally, so they instead turn to concocting wild, paranoid stories in order to undermine him. Recall that the DNC also spun a huge yarn about Trump literally ending the world if he were elected. That hasn't happened, and they want to bury all the nonsense they spouted about him beneath whatever mass hysteria they conjure up. Notice, if you will, there's been far less talk of Trump-Russia after the Charlottesville rioting. Know why? So they can covertly stop talking about Trump-Russia, under the guise of discussing more relevant news, and then never bring it up again. They're using the "memory hole" idea from Orwell's _1984_ to bury their mistakes, ignorant of the fact that the internet has effectivelt blown any potential "memory hole" to smithereens.
We could have a Captain America animatronic that punches Trump out and gives the speech instead, which would be perfect because... A. Disney owns Cap B. Chris Evans hates Trump's guts C. There's a couple of alternate Marvel Universes where Captain America became President
I would love to see another video from Tony, but I’m not entirely certain if he’d want to come back with another video on Trump. I could see a riff on his Cabinet picks, though.
I think they should just bring out one of the more raunchy pirates from the Caribbean ride and have him take Donald's place in the Hall. I'd save the Imagineer's time and money and nobody would know the difference.
I do agree that they should just do away with the Attraction all together because regardless of your political party, someone will always be upset with the new addition
Watching this now as a reminder of all the shit we went through these past four years. God I hope the rumors about replacing the attraction with a new Trump-less “ain’t America great” show are true.
Now in the Hall of Presidents when they name every president, people actually cheer or boo with every one named after the 1940s or so, so the attraction is already dividing people before he's in. Plus it's a boring waste of 30 minutes.
Jerk, I know it's most likely that this comment section is gonna be filled with piles of bullshit and anger filled rants with little to no evidence to back up their claims so I just want to say this is a great video and I genuinely look forward to everything you upload here. I truly hope you have an amazing day and keep on being you. :)
Australia's Wonderland had a section of the park dedicated to Gold Rush historical attractions, including a photo-op booth where you could take a selfie with Ned Kelly, our nation's most notorious bushranger/OG Boba Fett cosplayer. To my knowledge there has never been an Australian theme park attraction dedicated to showcasing Canberra's revolving door of sociopaths, Gough Whitlam opening Old Sydney Town doesn't count. The fact we're willing to celebrate the legacy of an executed highway robber rather than admit any of our Prime Ministers living or dead deserve theme park representation, says it all on how much Australian citizens despise our worthless leaders who put refugees in prison.
WeirdoTZero So you want to go from a crazy president to another crazy president? Why can't we have a sane person be president? Like Tad Strange for instance. I say TAD STRANGE FOR PRESIDENT 2017!
Of course it's a futile effort to decide the 2017 president, since in the future we'll be ruled by Time Baby anyway. We might as well just prepare for that.
And given that the ice caps are melting and dear leader is going full steam ahead on anything that will make the melting go faster, it's probably going to happen soon. *puts on hat that says "welcome, Time Baby!"* Frankly, I welcome our new infant overlord.
I will never understand why he was not hammered about that. He is and always has been a terrible businessman. www.nytimes.com/2016/06/12/nyregion/donald-trump-atlantic-city.html?_r=0
Both Trump Steaks and Trump Vodka are failed brands. This is a guy who couldn't sell two of the most popular things in the world: meat and booze. And he ran on how great of a businessman he was.
It did plummet after Trump was elected though. It plummeted even more thanks to the coronavirus of course, but the U.S. became the largest hotspot for it largely due to Trump's incompetence.
Ok here's my idea: Animatronic Trump is about to give his speech, when suddenly, an animatronic Berine Sanders appears, knocks Trump out cold, looks to the crowd and says "Forget about 'feeling the Bern', my party burned themselves!" And then Morgan Freeman chimes in with "Ya done goofed Dems"!
I'm so sorry this has you down, Tony. If it's any consultation, Trump was not my candidate of choice and come next election I'll vote for anyone but him.
Anthony Clay You sure about that, mate? I can think of a few people who would screw this country over far more quickly and far more thoroughly than Trump. One of them was his opponent and her unenforceable no-fly zone over Syria.
How would something unenforceable have screwed up the entire country? Much less FASTER than all the shit Trump is doing now? I'm noticing that ALL these responses of yours to random comments are from five days ago, Ikky. What happened? Were you so bitter about getting your ass kicked in our main argument, you decided to start harassing my commenters too, just to prove to yourself that you were still alive? Anyway, I'm copy-pasting my response to the "No-Fly Zone" thing from another response I already left months ago on another stupid comment, because it's 3AM and I'm not wasting any more precious cognition on you: I have to believe that a former Secretary Of State would've known better than to get us mired in an unwinnable war, especially after she's expressed such extreme regret over supporting the Iraq war. The No-Fly Zone was likely just a negotiable bargaining chip, a way of "being tough" on Russia (which the republicans kept accusing Obama of being bad at, and in hindsight, they were right on that one).
I've had this thought for a while now, but I sort of feel creeped out by people who go purely by "What Walt would've wanted". I mean it feels like he's haunting us rather than blessing us sometimes when fans backlash like that.
I’m hoping that once Biden is president they’ll turn Trump’s lines off and move him far off into the back so we don’t have to see or hear his anamatronic ever again
Your choice of songs at the end actually brings up an important fact: Trump is not a king, and thus his power is not absolute. I'm just going to let that statement speak to whoever reads it.
I have to agree ten-fold and 100% here. I mean Trumpty in the white-house is a bad enough image on its own but an animatronic of him in the hall of presidents? Oh that's just flipping wonderful...it will scare the ever-loving heck out of the park-goers and tourists. And he'd probably claim that he is the original angry Donald and that Donald Duck is stealing his gimmick.
Having first seen this in August of 2017, THANK YOU FOR THIS! Also, considering the damn thing STILL isn't open, that basically sums up how enthusiastic the world has been about all of this! I kinda wonder what you would've said if you knew then just HOW BAD THINGS ACTUALLY ARE NOW!
Honestly, I might've been slightly less angry had I known how absolutely, thoroughly incompetent he would be at every evil fucking thing he tried to do. And...yeah, it has NEVER taken Disney World longer than the fourth of July weekend after a new President's inauguration to install their animatronic. The fact that it's taking this long is a testament to how difficult Trump is to work with - from what I've heard, Trump's people refuse to let Imagineering write his speech, as has been the custom. Here's what I hope happens: the speech Trump's people write for him proves to be so Disney-inappropriate that they refuse to let Trumpbot say anything, Trump starts attacking Disney on Twitter, and his idiot cult boycotts the place. The fewer MAGA-holes I have to wait behind on lines, the better.
I'm a conservative (definitely not a Trump supporter) & though I can tell we'd disagree on a lot of things, that doesn't change how I feel about ya Tony. I don't think anyone else puts as much passion into their content as you do. Been a fan for a little over a year now & it's always a boost in my spirits when I see your new uploads. Looking forward to more, keep up the superb work!
Me too, actually. During the Watergate scandal, as a prank some cast member put handcuffs on Robot Nixon. During the Lewinski scandal, a cast member put a condom in Robot Clinton's pocket. With Robot Trump, you could do both and oh, so much more.
I think the biggest thing that we should take from this whole thing is to make a big effort to better ourselves. We need to look at people more than just face value. We need to learn more about how our politics work other than just ''I'm voting for this party because my parents did". We need to learn about plans and ask question. We need to consider the long distance future instead of the short term ego fulfilling. To me the true enemy has won if we continue to be angry and hate because it's a short term solution. As to who that enemy is, I'll leave it up to you to decide. Seek out acts of kindness and be everything that the target in question isn't, on a moral scale. This will include offering the best of yourself to those you don't want to be the best around. Is it an immediate solution, no, but that's kind of what got us all in this mess in the first place; many years of only thinking about instant gratification for one's self instead of many people in the long run.
Last time I went to the Hall of Presidents was late last year. It was half full, and the couple behind me made fart noises during Obama's speech. Yeah, the robot Obama's speech. Afterward they got up, and said, "It was a DISGRACE letting him speak." Now, Obama is about as polarizing as most presidents have been, but he's got NOTHING on Tiny Hands. It's easy to find people who are neutral on him, but with Shitface McGee you either love him or hate him. And that's being generous, it's more like you either idolize him and view him as a literal god or despise him with every depth of your being. So WDI and Disney are in a really shitty situation here. You have to add him, you just have to or else it'll look extremely biased. PR nightmare. But the Not-So-Jolly Orange Giant in the Hall of Presidents is a smaller PR nightmare with a side of having the most controversial theme park attraction in the United States. A way to mitigate it would be to eliminate the speaking portion for the current POTUS and paint broadly, but I have a feeling Disney doesn't even want to appear to back down. The Tang Crybaby would definitely choose Disney as a perfect target to fire some ugly Twitter words against not letting him speak. Obama spoke! It's not fair! And there you go, manufactured distraction PR nightmare which Fox News will gladly host roundtables talking about a fucking theme park attraction. Not to mention the fact that Bob Iger is on the panel. So Disney is stuck at least until the hopeful impeachment in which they can immediately shutter it and refocus the show with a Pence AA. However, the real issue isn't the show itself... it's the crowds. Going back to the beginning of this post, how does Disney handle such an extremely polarizing figure and both its fans and dissenters in the same room? I've heard that Obama's AA has incurred fights that had to be broken up by security. But what happens when somebody boos "God Emperor" loudly in front of a Drumpf-idolizing MAGA-hat wearing person? How do you handle people who are so emotionally empowered by this Heavily-Tanned Hate Machine, driving distrust and fear into everyone's brains on either side? How does Disney prevent the Hall of Presidents from being a political rally with all of the passion, and keep it safe as it should be? To be honest, I'm not sure. This is Disney's private property, so the least they can do is enforce a zero-tolerance policy. Staff the show with security and as fucked up as it is, deliver two spiels both outside and inside the theater that drives home the point that the show contains controversial political figures but is ultimately about respecting the presidency and to please honor that with dignity... and if you don't, you will be escorted out of the theater promptly. It's kind of messed up that they would actually have to say that this is not the place to "show em how it is" and force your rage through your fist at a THEME PARK ATTRACTION, but this fuckstick is supported by Nazis. Literal Nazis. And keep in mind that Disney just added a Muppets show that's legitimately adorable and funny, but it's also right outside the attraction, caters to the family audience (read: KIDS) and actually uses the end of the show to promote going into see the Hall of Presidents. Yes it's cheesy to say "think of the children!" but seriously, think of the children. So those who got enraged by this post calling Trump a "tang crybaby", yeah, you have the right to be mad and trash me in the replies and whatever but we're putting him in the Hall of Presidents, the best you can do is not turn Disney World into a violent political rally. Let it stay safe. C'mon.
I agree with all your points, especially about extra security. The upside of all this is that for guests, the Hall Of Presidents is a REALLY easy attraction to just ignore. Everyone knows who the President is, you know what you're getting into before you enter the building.
True, I would hope Trump dissenters are at least smarter than those Obama-haters at the top there who walked into the Hall of Presidents are were aghast to see Obama there speaking like he was the President of the United States or something.
well Trump will not be the only controversial figure on the hall, just look at Andrew Jackson and what he done to the native Americans, and a good portion of them owned slaves. Just to give perspective
Unpopular opinion here, but I'd just remove Hall of Presidents. heck just retheme the whole area to Mysteryland. We have all the other genres represented in their own lands, why not a mystery/horror hybrid. The Haunted Mansion remains in tact while everything else is rethemed. Maybe add a new Gravity Falls ride. of course this will never happen seeing as A. Hall of Presidents has to much of a connection with Disney's legacy and B. Gravity Falls was a TV show and the most TV Shows ever get is a scavenger hunt type game and not a real attraction
Thank god it was only four years. I thought it was just gonna be 8 because I had a theory that Americans were afraid of change so trying to shake the norm four years too soon was out of the question… 2020 May be known for a lot of wrong But thank god That went RIGHT.
I mean, what frustrates me is that if you put any stock into Prof. Allan Lichtman's "Keys to the White House" (and I see no reason not to, the only time it was ever wrong was when SCOTUS picked the President instead of the voters), there was basically no way Trump was ever gonna win a second term. He had so many huge strikes against him - massive social unrest, scandal after scandal, no midterm gains, no strong long-term or short term economy, etc. - that basically, whoever the Dems had nominated definitely would've won. And they nominated fucking Biden, who sucks, because suburban boomers thought he was "the safe bet" when there effectively was no unsafe bet.
Isn't it weird how apocalypses always seem to have either no water or too much water? Maybe if we're lucky Mad Max and Waterworld will both happen and they'll cancel each other out.
Here, you have highlighted every problem you (and half of America) have with the Sniffles presidency better than a million Tweets could. Bravo, good sir. May God help us.
Have you seen the Hall of Presidents? Each new variation is changed to reflect the new administration. It's pretty much a bipartisan blowjob to the values of what got the current POTUS to where they are today. So Disney is in a REALLY tough bind here and nothing about this is going to be funny. It's instead going to be extremely awkward and uncomfortable. God forbid if they have him speak.
You're totally right about America losing tourism. As a female, liberal, pagan, bi-curious who married a foreigner, I'm way too terrified to enter America at least for the next 30 years. Looks like Disneyland Paris and Moominworld will be getting my sweet tourism money instead!
me, queer/trans and my best friend, mexican have had this dream of moving to cali together (we're swedish) since we've been kids and now we where finally just 2 years away from making that happen but, yeah, THAT sure as hell aint gonna happen in the forseeable future anymore! geez even after trump leaves office imagine how long it will take to remove all the actively lifethreatening laws his administration from hell will impose!
Some Dude I would just stay in Sweden. I live in Finland and its way better than the UK. I'm imagining the horror right now if EuroDisney had been built in the UK instead of France...
FWIW, California OVERWHELMINGLY voted against Dumbfuck McGee and our state government has promised to vigorously oppose him when he acts against California's values.
why though? every single cabinet member "he's" apointed so far is against LGBT rights? and the republican platform for 2016 has actively anti gay goals like giving the right for everyone to deny service to queer people on religious grounds even in GODAMN HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONS? even the the conservative gay group is outraged. and you cant possibly have missed all the anti immigrant and (mexican specific) rethoric used in this election? im only responding cause im giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you arent a troll so please explain to me why i shouldnt be worried cause i'd love to .
It sucks that Trump is now president. America should've choose better candidates for both parties So stuff like this wouldn't happen. American politics have become so screwed up that the Galactic Empire looks better in comparison. Hopefully, Americans can represent equality and diversity better then the current presidency we elected. United We Stand, Divied We Fall.
Those Disney Park Purists... Would you call them the "Walt-Right?"
...
...
...I'll see myself out.
WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I HATE MYSELF FOR NOT THINKING OF THAT FIRST.
Rex Mundane Holy shit that's brilliant!
Rex Mundane
I'm just hear to remind you of the up coming one year anniversary of your genius.
Dear God This is the most some jerk comment not to come out of some Jerks mouth
Brad Jones has a character with that name to mock the alt-right.
What about the poor Haunted Mansion? Thanks to this debacle, it will no longer be the scariest attraction in Liberty Square.
googamp32 Brilliant.
Yeah, people will actually WANT to join the 9999 ghosts in the mansion now.
Wow, the attraction's so scary, 9,000 more happy haunts joined! Does that mean there's actually room for 10,000?
LOL! Nice one. 👏
*walks on screen* "I liked Carousel of Progress!"
What a senseless waste of glass.
Pocket Fluff Productions Actually that glass voted for Donald Trump.
I'm here to ruin your reference by giving my two sense. I think Carousel of Progress doesn't need to be removed, but a serious update wouldn't hurt, and would fit with Walt's vision.
FireBlast Studios
ITS WHAT WALT WOULD HAVE WANTED
@dis0rian did stone Cold Steve Austin show up?
We're going to build a Walt and make Roy pay it. I lost it at that point.
I've come up with a compromise. Have a Trump animatroic in the HOP but have Alec Baldwin voice him.
Wintermute01001 I'd be okay with that.
I second that.
Wintermute01001 If trump refuses to voice the animatronic then I'm pretty sure Alec will be first in line
I’m so pleased with the Hall of Presidents holiday overlay! Ebenezer Scrooge is such a lovely addition!
First, it was the emails.
Now, it's bread becoming pricey.
I honestly wish I didn't have to revisit this, but as you said Tony, "ARE YOU F***ING KIDDING ME, AMERICA?"
Sadly, no. This is still the dumbest timeline.
Took the worrds right out!
This video just became relevant again.
I’m STILL surprised. Probably will be for a while.
“Are you sure there aren’t any Disney parks in Canada? Well look harder!” Me:There’s Canada’s wonderland. That’s close enough.
"Pumpkin spice flavored oogielove abortion" is honestly the most accurate description I've ever heard for him
This video is going to be one of our sanity maintenance resources during the next four years.
Mark my words...given the evidence for collusion with Russia and crimes that definitely show treason, that son of a bitch won't last that long...
0:59
I hate how this is happening again......
I know…
like him or not it does make sense to include him
NOTHING about this election made the slightest lick of sense. That's my whole point.
Tony Goldmark sorry if I misunderstood
MrDOCTORDERPY you know what it's your apengen
I'm a 15 year old kid from some dusty old town in Pennsylvania and I haven't the slightest clue about politics and have no room to talk but that Trump animatronic is the worst goddamn thing i've ever seen in my entire fucking life
Disney is usually on point with making realistic accurate animatronics, but Donald Trump's animatronic doesn't even resemble him to a point where it wouldn't be hard to believe they spray painted a hillary animatronic with orange paint and gave it a blonde toupee
I love the opening intro of this video. I wish I could get a transcript of it.
All your various nicknames for the angry turnip gives me immense joy, thank you. I really did need this video.
How am I gonna stop myself from going to a hospital bed from this constant 4-year nightmare coma from the reign of Dorito Chip McOoompaLoompa??
Anybody coming here after Joe Biden was projected the winner?
Me!!
Yo!
Also the first time I’m actually watching this video.
O Mighty Jerk, keeper of comedy, defender of Disneyland, and bringer of non-stop subversive topical wonderousness, you have saved my sense of humor!!! For that, I most humbly thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Except the sad part is that Alternate Timeline Tycoon Biff was killed in the 90's according to lore.
We're stuck in the Alternate Alternate timeline.

I had to replay the opening remark. That was glorious.
Long time fan and a conservative I simply wish to say this. I may not agree with what you say, but I shall defend to the death your right to say it
Same here. I'm a hardcore conservative but I would never push for restrictions on free speech.
Kind of like what's happening now with that whole "fake news" thing going on.
Listen, I know Americans are easily manipulated, but as Count Jackula himself said, "The tools you use to silence people today become the tools that are used to silence you tomorrow."
Or something to that effect. Point being, favoritism is never an okay thing to do.

KRSeriphem
We appreciate your integrity.
6:02 Your Mickey impression was spot on. Wayne, Bret, Jimmy, Carl and Walt would give you awards.
"Lighting McQueen is dead or something?!" I lost it.
Also, we can't blame America. Hillary won the popular vote, it's just the stupid Electoral College.
"Foreign tourism is going to plummet" oh, shit, understatement of the fucking year, at this point.
Hehehehe. I’m here 4 years in the future.
You guys have NO idea how much Trump fucked up foreign tourism
We could have a Captain America animatronic that punches Trump out and gives the speech instead, which would be perfect because...
A. Disney owns Cap
B. Chris Evans hates Trump's guts
C. There's a couple of alternate Marvel Universes where Captain America became President
Unfortunately, Universal has exclusivity on the theme park rights to Cap in Florida. But HOLY SHIT that would be perfect.
They added Trump, you can tell they had started making Hillary and had to change it after they heard the news.
My idea for the HoP: Have George Washington give the speech at the end and have new Presidents sit quietly in the background with the others.
I cannot wait for part 2 of this rant since, you know, Trump won a second term as President of the United States.
I would love to see another video from Tony, but I’m not entirely certain if he’d want to come back with another video on Trump. I could see a riff on his Cabinet picks, though.
I feel your pain brother. I'm still hoping I'm allowed to poke fun of the bastard, since as a comedian, it's my sworn duty to mock idiots.
I think they should just bring out one of the more raunchy pirates from the Caribbean ride and have him take Donald's place in the Hall. I'd save the Imagineer's time and money and nobody would know the difference.
Lesbomarx the original pooped pirate would fit pretty well.
I do agree that they should just do away with the Attraction all together because regardless of your political party, someone will always be upset with the new addition
I'm sorry to inform you that there are no disney parks in Canada all we have are parks that are like six flags
Go to Disneyland Paris in the winter and pretend you're in Quebec.
No One In Particular but France doesn't exist
Canada's Wonderland was decent, even though they lost the licensing with Paramount.
Philip Babb yeah but universal studios Japan has the peanuts and do a much better job with them
It's times like these when I like to live in Canada.
Do you ever think we all died before November 2016 and we’re all in a version of Hell where we live in our worst nightmares?
every goddamn fucking day
Watching this now as a reminder of all the shit we went through these past four years. God I hope the rumors about replacing the attraction with a new Trump-less “ain’t America great” show are true.
I hope Hall of Presidents is gone, since I am trying to go to Disney World with Sprout since earlier this year.
4 years later we are living through the fucking aftermath of the plege
Now in the Hall of Presidents when they name every president, people actually cheer or boo with every one named after the 1940s or so, so the attraction is already dividing people before he's in. Plus it's a boring waste of 30 minutes.
Personally I’ve always used it for Air conditioning in disney
No picture of Dr. Strangelove? You are a better man than me, Tony.
Jerk, I know it's most likely that this comment section is gonna be filled with piles of bullshit and anger filled rants with little to no evidence to back up their claims so I just want to say this is a great video and I genuinely look forward to everything you upload here. I truly hope you have an amazing day and keep on being you. :)
Thanks man. I shall use the "Remove" option to shovel my way through the bullshit as best as I can.
Tony Goldmark God speed good sir. God speed.
Australia's Wonderland had a section of the park dedicated to Gold Rush historical attractions, including a photo-op booth where you could take a selfie with Ned Kelly, our nation's most notorious bushranger/OG Boba Fett cosplayer. To my knowledge there has never been an Australian theme park attraction dedicated to showcasing Canberra's revolving door of sociopaths, Gough Whitlam opening Old Sydney Town doesn't count. The fact we're willing to celebrate the legacy of an executed highway robber rather than admit any of our Prime Ministers living or dead deserve theme park representation, says it all on how much Australian citizens despise our worthless leaders who put refugees in prison.
After this disaster of a presidency, can we retcon Quentin Trembley the Third as 45th President?
He never signed an official act of resignation.
You're right! TO OREGON!!!

It did plummet after Trump was elected though. It plummeted even more thanks to the coronavirus of course, but the U.S. became the largest hotspot for it largely due to Trump's incompetence.
Ok here's my idea: Animatronic Trump is about to give his speech, when suddenly, an animatronic Berine Sanders appears, knocks Trump out cold, looks to the crowd and says "Forget about 'feeling the Bern', my party burned themselves!" And then Morgan Freeman chimes in with "Ya done goofed Dems"!

You know, I'd be okay with that. If nothing else, it would draw people to the park, just to see if it was actually real.
I'm so sorry this has you down, Tony. If it's any consultation, Trump was not my candidate of choice and come next election I'll vote for anyone but him.

You sure about that, mate? I can think of a few people who would screw this country over far more quickly and far more thoroughly than Trump. One of them was his opponent and her unenforceable no-fly zone over Syria.
How would something unenforceable have screwed up the entire country? Much less FASTER than all the shit Trump is doing now?
I'm noticing that ALL these responses of yours to random comments are from five days ago, Ikky. What happened? Were you so bitter about getting your ass kicked in our main argument, you decided to start harassing my commenters too, just to prove to yourself that you were still alive?
Anyway, I'm copy-pasting my response to the "No-Fly Zone" thing from another response I already left months ago on another stupid comment, because it's 3AM and I'm not wasting any more precious cognition on you:
I have to believe that a former Secretary Of State would've known better than to get us mired in an unwinnable war, especially after she's expressed such extreme regret over supporting the Iraq war. The No-Fly Zone was likely just a negotiable bargaining chip, a way of "being tough" on Russia (which the republicans kept accusing Obama of being bad at, and in hindsight, they were right on that one).
I've had this thought for a while now, but I sort of feel creeped out by people who go purely by "What Walt would've wanted". I mean it feels like he's haunting us rather than blessing us sometimes when fans backlash like that.
I’m hoping that once Biden is president they’ll turn Trump’s lines off and move him far off into the back so we don’t have to see or hear his anamatronic ever again
Animatrump sounds like the stuff of nightmares... perhaps they'll give him an obscured back row seat after his hopefully short term is over.
Can we have a sequel? This is one of the funniest things you've done.
6 years later and this video is still true.
This video is a masterpiece.
I'm waiting for the new part of the show where Washington, Lincoln, and Roosevelt tackle Trump to the ground and beat the crap out of him
No Trump will order Obama to be placed in chains and shot by an animatronic of John Welks Booth
John "Welks" Booth?
Tony Goldmark You know, the guy who shot Afroham Linkin
I'm not American so I don't know the proper spelling of his name
CAGE MATCH OF THE PRESIDENTS 8D
Incidentally, "Oogielove Abortion" is the name of my Wiggles/Lordi crossover band.
And then we cut to a cover of "Hot Potato" set to the beat of "Royals."
Some Jerk with a Camera,
What do you think would happen if animatronic Chump takes a ride to 'It's a small world?'
Mutual assured destruction?
Your choice of songs at the end actually brings up an important fact: Trump is not a king, and thus his power is not absolute.
I'm just going to let that statement speak to whoever reads it.
I have to agree ten-fold and 100% here. I mean Trumpty in the white-house is a bad enough image on its own but an animatronic of him in the hall of presidents? Oh that's just flipping wonderful...it will scare the ever-loving heck out of the park-goers and tourists. And he'd probably claim that he is the original angry Donald and that Donald Duck is stealing his gimmick.
8:54 Tony what the hell? You predicted the future but only the spray paint part
Just once I'd like to predict something that ISN'T dumb.
My cat decided to die of natural causes the day after the election. Even he didn't want to live in "Trumperica"
MrXemnas1992 I'm almost as sorry for your loss as I am for Americas
Tony Goldmark, you're my youtube HERO!
Please, no UA-cam heroes! Anything but that!
Having first seen this in August of 2017, THANK YOU FOR THIS! Also, considering the damn thing STILL isn't open, that basically sums up how enthusiastic the world has been about all of this! I kinda wonder what you would've said if you knew then just HOW BAD THINGS ACTUALLY ARE NOW!
Honestly, I might've been slightly less angry had I known how absolutely, thoroughly incompetent he would be at every evil fucking thing he tried to do. And...yeah, it has NEVER taken Disney World longer than the fourth of July weekend after a new President's inauguration to install their animatronic. The fact that it's taking this long is a testament to how difficult Trump is to work with - from what I've heard, Trump's people refuse to let Imagineering write his speech, as has been the custom. Here's what I hope happens: the speech Trump's people write for him proves to be so Disney-inappropriate that they refuse to let Trumpbot say anything, Trump starts attacking Disney on Twitter, and his idiot cult boycotts the place. The fewer MAGA-holes I have to wait behind on lines, the better.
I'm a conservative (definitely not a Trump supporter) & though I can tell we'd disagree on a lot of things, that doesn't change how I feel about ya Tony. I don't think anyone else puts as much passion into their content as you do. Been a fan for a little over a year now & it's always a boost in my spirits when I see your new uploads. Looking forward to more, keep up the superb work!
Fun fact, the writers based Bif on Trump.

Hey, so, that's a pretty reasonable reaction, huh?
I was actually confused about the Jimmy Fallon connection.
I'm honestly surprised no one has tried to sneak in after hours and spraypaint a mustache and beard on the finished animatronic.
Me too, actually. During the Watergate scandal, as a prank some cast member put handcuffs on Robot Nixon. During the Lewinski scandal, a cast member put a condom in Robot Clinton's pocket. With Robot Trump, you could do both and oh, so much more.
Actually there’s only 44 presidents there as Grover Cleveland is the 22 and 24th president. So they didn’t need to make another animatronic of him
Yeah, I didn't catch that til I'd already shot this. Ah well.
Tony Goldmark it’s all good.
"Even though they are already electronic"
I think the biggest thing that we should take from this whole thing is to make a big effort to better ourselves. We need to look at people more than just face value. We need to learn more about how our politics work other than just ''I'm voting for this party because my parents did". We need to learn about plans and ask question. We need to consider the long distance future instead of the short term ego fulfilling. To me the true enemy has won if we continue to be angry and hate because it's a short term solution. As to who that enemy is, I'll leave it up to you to decide. Seek out acts of kindness and be everything that the target in question isn't, on a moral scale. This will include offering the best of yourself to those you don't want to be the best around. Is it an immediate solution, no, but that's kind of what got us all in this mess in the first place; many years of only thinking about instant gratification for one's self instead of many people in the long run.
I say put the new robot in. If you don't want to see Trump in the Hall Of Presidents, DON'T GO TO THE FUCKING HALL OF PRESIDENTS.
Last time I went to the Hall of Presidents was late last year. It was half full, and the couple behind me made fart noises during Obama's speech. Yeah, the robot Obama's speech. Afterward they got up, and said, "It was a DISGRACE letting him speak."
Now, Obama is about as polarizing as most presidents have been, but he's got NOTHING on Tiny Hands. It's easy to find people who are neutral on him, but with Shitface McGee you either love him or hate him. And that's being generous, it's more like you either idolize him and view him as a literal god or despise him with every depth of your being. So WDI and Disney are in a really shitty situation here. You have to add him, you just have to or else it'll look extremely biased. PR nightmare.
But the Not-So-Jolly Orange Giant in the Hall of Presidents is a smaller PR nightmare with a side of having the most controversial theme park attraction in the United States. A way to mitigate it would be to eliminate the speaking portion for the current POTUS and paint broadly, but I have a feeling Disney doesn't even want to appear to back down. The Tang Crybaby would definitely choose Disney as a perfect target to fire some ugly Twitter words against not letting him speak. Obama spoke! It's not fair! And there you go, manufactured distraction PR nightmare which Fox News will gladly host roundtables talking about a fucking theme park attraction. Not to mention the fact that Bob Iger is on the panel.
So Disney is stuck at least until the hopeful impeachment in which they can immediately shutter it and refocus the show with a Pence AA. However, the real issue isn't the show itself... it's the crowds. Going back to the beginning of this post, how does Disney handle such an extremely polarizing figure and both its fans and dissenters in the same room? I've heard that Obama's AA has incurred fights that had to be broken up by security. But what happens when somebody boos "God Emperor" loudly in front of a Drumpf-idolizing MAGA-hat wearing person? How do you handle people who are so emotionally empowered by this Heavily-Tanned Hate Machine, driving distrust and fear into everyone's brains on either side? How does Disney prevent the Hall of Presidents from being a political rally with all of the passion, and keep it safe as it should be?
To be honest, I'm not sure. This is Disney's private property, so the least they can do is enforce a zero-tolerance policy. Staff the show with security and as fucked up as it is, deliver two spiels both outside and inside the theater that drives home the point that the show contains controversial political figures but is ultimately about respecting the presidency and to please honor that with dignity... and if you don't, you will be escorted out of the theater promptly. It's kind of messed up that they would actually have to say that this is not the place to "show em how it is" and force your rage through your fist at a THEME PARK ATTRACTION, but this fuckstick is supported by Nazis. Literal Nazis.
And keep in mind that Disney just added a Muppets show that's legitimately adorable and funny, but it's also right outside the attraction, caters to the family audience (read: KIDS) and actually uses the end of the show to promote going into see the Hall of Presidents. Yes it's cheesy to say "think of the children!" but seriously, think of the children. So those who got enraged by this post calling Trump a "tang crybaby", yeah, you have the right to be mad and trash me in the replies and whatever but we're putting him in the Hall of Presidents, the best you can do is not turn Disney World into a violent political rally. Let it stay safe. C'mon.
I agree with all your points, especially about extra security. The upside of all this is that for guests, the Hall Of Presidents is a REALLY easy attraction to just ignore. Everyone knows who the President is, you know what you're getting into before you enter the building.
True, I would hope Trump dissenters are at least smarter than those Obama-haters at the top there who walked into the Hall of Presidents are were aghast to see Obama there speaking like he was the President of the United States or something.

It's cases like this where I wish run-off/ranked-choice voting was the national standard.
I really, *really* hate politics. You did make it kinda enjoyable, though.
Well, we could have an other "President Sir Lord Quentin Trembley III, Esq. case" and he'll only be the 44½th president of the United States.
well Trump will not be the only controversial figure on the hall, just look at Andrew Jackson and what he done to the native Americans, and a good portion of them owned slaves. Just to give perspective
Very very true. I guess I'd gotten used to seeing truly repulsive Presidents as a relic of a bygone era.
Trump is Outa here! Hello, Joe Biden!
2016 could be written down and easily considered the plot for a new Simpsons movie.
Unpopular opinion here, but I'd just remove Hall of Presidents. heck just retheme the whole area to Mysteryland. We have all the other genres represented in their own lands, why not a mystery/horror hybrid. The Haunted Mansion remains in tact while everything else is rethemed. Maybe add a new Gravity Falls ride. of course this will never happen seeing as A. Hall of Presidents has to much of a connection with Disney's legacy and B. Gravity Falls was a TV show and the most TV Shows ever get is a scavenger hunt type game and not a real attraction
You're a hero to us all. I beg of you to make weekly videos
Aww thanks! I wish I had the time, resources and energy to do videos that often.
Ooh, don't forget him building a wall in front of the Mexico pavilion! (And never actually building it!)
I mean, Mexico is World Showcase's only indoor pavilion, so technically there already IS a wall around it.
Tony Goldmark then he'll just have to build a permanent work wall in front of the 3 caballeros ride (sorry if I spelt that wrong)
Maybe they'll just take your advice and place one of the Five Nights at Freddys Animatronics in The Orange Guys place. I'm betting it'll be Ennard.
THAT ONE AGENT FROM SUPERSTAR LIMO FOR PRESIDENT!!
Who else think it's time for a ''mysterious fire'' to wipe the Hall Of Presidents clean?
Hey, it worked for the Tiki Room...
These rants give me life
Thank god it was only four years.
I thought it was just gonna be 8 because I had a theory that Americans were afraid of change so trying to shake the norm four years too soon was out of the question…
2020 May be known for a lot of wrong
But thank god
That went RIGHT.
I mean, what frustrates me is that if you put any stock into Prof. Allan Lichtman's "Keys to the White House" (and I see no reason not to, the only time it was ever wrong was when SCOTUS picked the President instead of the voters), there was basically no way Trump was ever gonna win a second term. He had so many huge strikes against him - massive social unrest, scandal after scandal, no midterm gains, no strong long-term or short term economy, etc. - that basically, whoever the Dems had nominated definitely would've won. And they nominated fucking Biden, who sucks, because suburban boomers thought he was "the safe bet" when there effectively was no unsafe bet.
You are amazing, sir.
I'm honestly just waiting for the nuclear exchange and seeing what apocalypse movie we're going to mirror? Mad Max? Fallout? Waterworld?
Isn't it weird how apocalypses always seem to have either no water or too much water? Maybe if we're lucky Mad Max and Waterworld will both happen and they'll cancel each other out.
Glad Kamala will be a better President than Trump. 😂
At 6:26, why did you play a notable British march-The British Grenadiers-over the segment describing an American patriotic theme park attraction?
To see if you'd notice. ;)
Here, you have highlighted every problem you (and half of America) have with the Sniffles presidency better than a million Tweets could. Bravo, good sir. May God help us.
BlackHatGuy64 More than half if we're going by the popular vote.
That Opening IS BEAUTIFUL
why are you so upset Jerk? This is gonna be hilarious!
It'd be hilarious if it were fictional.
Have you seen the Hall of Presidents? Each new variation is changed to reflect the new administration. It's pretty much a bipartisan blowjob to the values of what got the current POTUS to where they are today. So Disney is in a REALLY tough bind here and nothing about this is going to be funny. It's instead going to be extremely awkward and uncomfortable. God forbid if they have him speak.
This was cathartic.
I feel your rage, and think the attraction should be closed until he's out of office...
When are they ever going to get around to adding the President Spazzmaster AA?
You're totally right about America losing tourism. As a female, liberal, pagan, bi-curious who married a foreigner, I'm way too terrified to enter America at least for the next 30 years. Looks like Disneyland Paris and Moominworld will be getting my sweet tourism money instead!
me, queer/trans and my best friend, mexican have had this dream of moving to cali together (we're swedish) since we've been kids and now we where finally just 2 years away from making that happen but, yeah, THAT sure as hell aint gonna happen in the forseeable future anymore! geez even after trump leaves office imagine how long it will take to remove all the actively lifethreatening laws his administration from hell will impose!
Some Dude I would just stay in Sweden. I live in Finland and its way better than the UK. I'm imagining the horror right now if EuroDisney had been built in the UK instead of France...
FWIW, California OVERWHELMINGLY voted against Dumbfuck McGee and our state government has promised to vigorously oppose him when he acts against California's values.
Tony Goldmark Sounds kind of like what Scotland is doing against England right now. California is the new Scotland!!
why though? every single cabinet member "he's" apointed so far is against LGBT rights? and the republican platform for 2016 has actively anti gay goals like giving the right for everyone to deny service to queer people on religious grounds even in GODAMN HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONS? even the the conservative gay group is outraged. and you cant possibly have missed all the anti immigrant and (mexican specific) rethoric used in this election? im only responding cause im giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you arent a troll so please explain to me why i shouldnt be worried cause i'd love to
.
It sucks that Trump is now president. America should've choose better candidates for both parties So stuff like this wouldn't happen. American politics have become so screwed up that the Galactic Empire looks better in comparison. Hopefully, Americans can represent equality and diversity better then the current presidency we elected. United We Stand, Divied We Fall.
