I feel like, no matter how he’s portrayed, his supporters will just reconfigure their understanding of reality to navigate the cognitive dissonance (like they always do). like, if the movie portrays him as an emotionally stunted, sociopathic monster, they’ll just go “this is good and cool and normal, actually.” they’ve got psychic walls up around their mental image of the guy, and I genuinely don’t know how you break through that.
He has the right for trying to block a movie, it is about him. He has no right to use the judge system for it, like democrats use to silent dissidents. Free speech is not about trying to shut up somebody , it is about abusing or change the law for it.

@emmaaye2620 It seems that many Americans like bullies. There is a sculpture of a bull at Wall Street. It's not a coincidence. They also like bulls**t. The expression "oil snake salesman" was coined in the US. The Barnum brother's success was due to the public's love for bulls**t. You can make a fortune selling literal bulls**t in the US as long it comes in a shiny box and has an expensive marketing campaign promoting it. Trump is a pure product of that culture. It's funny because it is not the bull but the placid cows that actually produce something useful.
During Donald Trump's presidency, he spent 298 days playing golf, marking the highest number of golf days by any U.S. president within a single term. The U.S. economy contracted at the fastest rate since 1946 and the unemployment rate reached 14.7%, the highest since the Great Depression. The U.S. national debt expanded by 40.43%.
I love how Trump's billionaire buddy Dan Snyder invested in the film under the impression it was going to be a flattering portrayal of Trump and was reportedly furious when he discovered the film instead depicts the truth.
This might be one of those films where "the bad guys" (Cohn and Trump) are considered flattering or relatable, and frankly, if they don't capture Trump's charisma, it won't be a good film. I mean there's so many politically neutral video essays on sympathetic villains because a lot of Americans feel like they also have to do bad things to survive, even though they're just bad people.
I saw this movie last Friday evening the day of it's release, I was surprised that I was the only one in the theatre, and I was also surprised to see that no big name UA-cam Movie reviewers were reviewing it. I think it's one of the best movies of the year. Great Performances all around. It's a haunting film where you get to witness the birth of the madness we've had to live in for over a decade.
That interesting that no one else was there. You must be in living in a city that is mostly pro trump and that alone is freaky. I know many pro trump places exist but not one other viewer on opening day. It’s hard to believe. It makes one wonder.

Why not? It is NOT an "Iranian Perspective". It's a view of an intelligent man raised in a very intellectual culture.

You need to learn the US isnt perfect and that patriots will criticize their own country. Read or watch "Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi to find how intelligent Iranians view the religious regime
Amazing interview with an amazing filmmaker. Wonderful and engaging dialog. His English is perfect, especially for a man raised in Iran with Swedish and current Danish residences. Can't wait to see the film! Cheers!
His English might be a little more perfect, and tolerable, if he didn't pepper every sentence with several "ya know"s. Maybe somebody should tell him, because otherwise, his command of the language is not too shabby.
which is what Trump wants...there's always the mugney Sol!!,,it's all about the Mugney and trump smells it collects it...bathese in it like Scrooge McDuck and he is about to rip off the Treasury via Musk and Mar a Lago.
My husband and I just got back from seeing this movie and it was excellent! I don't know why he tried so hard to prevent it being shown. The first bit actually shows him as human, showing the progression of how he ended up with the dangerously monstrous, delusional ego that has long since completely possessed him and that we see on display every single day.
don is a complete caricature of a strong man. He is shaped by the nurturing, or total lack of, that impacted his views of father figures. Add a heavy dose of indoctrination, ie coaching, by Cohn. The animal he accuses immigrants of being, is in the house. Hopefully not the White House
Don meets notorious Mob lawyer Roy Cohn (Jeremy Strong), who takes Trump under his wing (out of pity, he tells a friend) and teaches Trump that the world is a zero-sum game, one in which the winners must kill the losers to prosper. You’re familiar with that worldview because it’s now just called Trumpism. DENY DENY DENY and NEVER admit defeat no matter what. That’s DJT playbook . This movie is great. Very well made, Oscar worthy, 9/10.
To be fair, most of Trump's denials were as legitimate as the media narratives about him were garbage. His cabinet appointments were indefensible, however, given his campaign to "drain the swamp". Anybody who didn't see that coming and then call it out were f.o.s.
You are right bc we ALL know that even if he loses, he will continue his rallies claiming that he won. Make his supporters think that the election was fixed or stollen. He is EVIL!!! We all know that he will continue to sell CRAP to the American people. He will grift until he dies. I pray that he does not beckon his crazy followers to do anything stupid or put lives in jeopardy, like he did on Jan 6th. He is an AWFUL man and I hope he has a lonely life, a loveless marriage (Check) and loses all of his money (1/2 of a check)…😂😂😂😂

@@ninsemor I don't even know why Trump would have bothered to block it. It truly shows him starting from the bottom which only proves his resilience. Wish our Canadian leaders were half as tough.
@@throwingsun-m7w He didn't start from the bottom. He was born into an upper middle class family. His father gave him $1 million loan in the 70s. That was a considerable amount of money back then.
@@e-cuauhtemoci’d suggest you learn more about the man and his intentions. The people close to him know him well and too many have spoken against him. I’m conservative leaning and I don’t believe trump has the country’s best interest at heart.
I am totally opposed to a narcissistic sociopath getting in the oval office, but it was a very illustrative movie, even when I already read 4 books on him.
Saw this yesterday in our local theatre. Was pleasantly surprised to see it showing in my area. I was the only one in the theatre. I didn't detect a strong bias, just some ugly truths along with moments where I felt empathy for the characters, Trump and Cohn. It simply put in into a screenplay most everything we've already read or learned about Donald Trump and his rise to celebrity in the 70s and 80s. I recommend it.
To be politically-correct: DonOLD Trump is the talent portion of the "Lobotomized Moron" pageant - be kind to his old ass because he's hopelessly senile, a malignant narcissist, and a BIG bag of horse shit all rolled into one oversized dumbass with the IQ of a rotten apple and the charisma of road kill.
Ah but it is, a pathetic kind of genius. You and I couldn't do it, it takes a special self-adoration to always consider what the appearances will be, even above your own happiness and pride. And best interests.
Oh but he is a real PR and overall genius... That is why he won big time even by popular vote. He's always had a winner perspective even when he has lost. And it has nothing to do with ego, its because he wins the experience, wins the knowledge and learns from his mistakes . That is a gain not a loss, The psychological thought and perspective of calling a defeat a win, is a psyche trick programming to view it with positive perspective for it to be a reinforcement that encouragement a person to continue every merit until reaching its goal. Failure is a win because its part of success. Ask any billionaire that. That is why NEVER ACCEPT DEFEIT was engraved in his mind by Cohn. That is the mentality of a genius and a true warrior. that is why he is your 47th president. Learn from it.
imagine if his head slowly turns into a pumpkin and then he jumps on horseback and chases people and throws his pumpkin head at them a la headless horseman.
That was your takeaway??? He was a white man who secretly belonged to a marginalized gay community, yet still found the energy & entitlement in his white identity to discriminate against another marginalized community (Black people)! I’m so tired of people skipping over racism to only analyze or speak on discrimination against the gay community. This clip distinctly mentions the housing discrimination against Black people, yet it’s always downplayed. But yes, Gay white men, especially those with money, often do not concern themselves with the plight of others in a similar boat & instead, align solely with racial identity, even the politics are against their own social interest.
@VeronicaRainone-h7ewhat would they say? Obama and Michelle had no scandals. How many presidents with 2 terms who can say that? They are a real American family, not a white trash reality tv family,
@@MorganMingo70 Well it’s a pretty big takeaway…. Roy Cohn was Jewish like the Rosenbergs, didn’t stop him…. You can be whatever color, sexuality, political persuasion, social standing,or religion you want. He’d do whatever he saw as his interest.

TRUMP MOVIE SHOULD BE STREAMED ON ALL PLATFORMS, WORLDWIDE, FOR FREE! Educate the GULLIBLE FOOLS OF THE WORLD! Trump, the EMPTY VESSEL! Soulless, EVIL, NONHUMAN!!!
I saw this movie last night. It really just confirms things that most of us already know about him. I was concern because not many people were in the movie. I count about 8 including myself and my wife. It is a really good movie and I only wish more people wil start filling up the theater and see how this narcissist became who he is.
I like this guy. He seems to be looking at this from up above, a topological view. Interesting to hear HIS view. I want to watch this movie!! VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙
I wish this were on all the streaming platforms. I hope it helps to convince too many Americans that this man is totally inept to be President. I am glad this film was made, and I want to see it, although I don’t know if my stomach can take it, the man revolts me so. Ali Abassi sounds like a very interesting man, thank you for the interview.
Saw this movie it was terrific and it was so on point! I lived in New York in the 70s. I worked on Wall Street in the summer and yeah the time period too.
Jeremy Strong who plays Roy Cohn is such a great actor. He's subtle and genuine in his portraying of his characters, and such a joy to watch. He lives in Copenhagen, Denmark. Maybe Ali Abbasi and Jeremy Strong have met or are hanging out in Copenhagen?
Can't stand Trump but note that a Roy-like figure called Mileikowsky has taken Biden to the Dark Side and actually harming far more people as we speak.
Before Roy Cohen, there was the influence of Trump’s pastor, a man named Norman Vincent Peale, who preached a prosperity gospel in which you can change reality by insistence. His book was “The Power of Positive Thinking”. That book,together with this movie, explain the why behind the Big Lie and what to expect after Trump loses the upcoming election.
I watched this movie a month before the election. It ran in my tiny local cinema for 2 weeks and barely anyone came to view it. I wouldn’t even have known what it was about if I hadn’t seen all the talk about it on UA-cam. Thank you for that! The film was really informative and gave me new insights into that horrible narcissist. I wish more people had watched the film. Realizing how much influence Roy Cohn had was eye-opening!
They eventually will but not until after the election. Everybody who owns all of the media in the world, all right winged because they want control and keep all of their money in their pockets.
No, that would be the decision by Emperor Constantine to turn Jesus from a carpenter into the Son of God. This was done in 325AD to save his office, EXACTLY like Trump and Bibi are doing today.
This show needs to come out BEFORE the election & on REGULAR NETWORK TV so EVERYONE can see it. And QUIT calling him 'President', he got FIRED in the 2020 election.
Abbasi makes a film showing how money can buy high-class lawyers and pervert justice. Immediately receives a cease-and-desist letter from Trump’s high class lawyers…
One problem, Trump has to "settle" for shit lawyers, because he kept ruining the High-class lawyer's careers, OR, they leave him, because he won't pay them, because he thinks it's their honor to represent him.,..🤣

I was buddies with 5 Iranian students for a few years before they were deported. They were all students at LSU studying petrochemical engineering. They were all members of royal Iranian family, they were very wealthy... very nice and very open and generous. We got along very well. Then one day they said we are being sent back to Iran.. the U.S. is deporting us... I never saw them again, they were gone within days.. My point is, they loved America were very interested in American life very open and liberal... I never heard or saw any of the discussing religion or any negative aspects of their lives,,, They were deeper hurt that they were being deported...
I lived in Iran two years (1966-1968). My youngest son was born there. I loved my time there and the people, like you said, loving and open. An Iranian here told me last week that life is much worse there now and that people actually sell their kidneys to survive. She told me a lot more. Said she had been gone 48 years and had not returned once because it was so bad there now. One young man we knew there told us he really liked us and that it was too bad America started WW II.😢
A friend in the very early '70's was a girl from Persia, at high school in the UK. She was amazing - strong, intelligent, independent. I often think about her and can only hope she got out when it turned into Iran. She's the last person I could imagine wearing a burka.
Fabulous interview ! It does shed light on what happens behind closed doors, and how the minds of those who are part of a private ecosystem can sometimes quickly go wrong.
I saw it last night. And as a movie buff, I'd tell you if it's worth seeing or not, it is an AWESOME movie, and you should see it. Jeremy Strong gives an amazing performance.
Too Late! I saw The Apprentice at a movie theater yesterday afternoon. Although not what I expected because I thought it was going to be a behind the scenes movie about Donald Trump and the development and production of the NBC reality TV show The Apprentice, it does a pretty good job of showing the relationship between Donald Trump and New York City attorney Roy Cohn, who makes Saul Goodman look like an ethical and honest attorney in comparison. Instead, Donald Trump was Roy Cohn’s apprentice in the 1970s and 1980s, and just like anyone else, Trump threw Cohn under the bus when he learned everything he needed to learn from him and Cohn became an embarrassment to Trump because he was a gay man dying from AIDS.
Roy Cohn taught him that always pay the MOB who pour the concrete but rip of the small contractors. I saw with my own eyes in 1985 a quarrel with T and a few workman in the garage 7:20 who wanted to get paid. I was catering a party for his business at that time
I enjoyed this interview, and look forward to seeing the film. That said, from a clinical perspective and with all due respect, what the film-maker was describing as 'real human emotions', in reference to Trump, should more aptly be described as 'personality disorders' that have been in evidence since he was a young child. (It was precisely because of his severe personality disorders that Trump was attracted to, even mesmerized by, such an effectively malevolent and unapologetic person, who could both provide him with the tools necessary to get whatever he wanted, and to get away with whatever he wanted). Malignant Narcissists and those with Anti-Social Personality Disorder or Psychopaths, do not, in fact, experience emotions the way others do (although Narcissists, especially covert Narcissists, and Psychopaths can learn to mimic a range of emotions in order to manipulate and exploit others; however, the genuine 'reactions' they are most apt to experience are rage, frustration, disinhibition, paranoia and boredom). Brain scans have shown that the sections of their brains which govern impulse control, empathy, remorse, guilt and such are severely impaired / inactive, which explains why they are essentially shamelessly and cruelly transactional with essentially everyone. Of course, once Roy Cohen was no longer useful to Trump, or his 'image', he was discarded, as all sources of narcissistic supply eventually will be.
With all due respect to Roy Cohn’s ability to corrupt, social media, and the Internet age made Donald Trump possible. He would’ve been a joke, and was a joke to just about everyone 25 years ago
Talk Radio planted the seeds, Reality TV made him a contender and Social Media / Cambridge Analytica with some help from Putin pushed him over the finish line.
No, actually he was much more generally liked a while ago. Certainly, he was brash and people had various opinions about him, but he was a media darling. You don't remember when he was on Oprah and she basically urged him to run for president?
@@j3ffn4v4rr0 In the UK he looked like a bewildered imbecile who had no idea about business, it was comedy. We had Alan Sugar wh started with nothing and made mistakes but was smart enough to recover. He became a real billionaire, unlike Trump who lost daddy's business empire so badly he had to beg the Russians for cash.
My wife and I watched the new movie, 'The Apprentice' today and we think everyone should watch it to see exactly how and where Trump got his bag of tricks from.
Just saw the movie 2 hrs ago. Great job and great acting! Doesn’t talk about election at all. Only shows what a horrible person Cohn is and how Trump turned into Cohn but ended up even worse! A must see!
But a dumber less intelligent version. Cohn told him he was gonna over leverage himself and the casinos were a bad idea but trump thought he was now the master. Roy was like no you’ll always be a student.
God bless you producer Ali Abbasi, may the creator of the heavens keep you and yours in his arms. Excellent endeavor, incredible and timely. Congratulations. Can't wait to see your film.
Lawyers run this country- usually said Narcissists people are one of best to get power! Thank you Mr. Abbasi, a very needed film to document our moment in history!
I saw it last night. Honestly expected it to be harder on him than it was. Admittedly not flattering, but given the horrible things he's done, he only looks like a very horrible person... Excellent acting, and given that's it a foreign production with apparently much of it filmed in Canada, they did a great job matching the US era presented.

Amazing interview with an amazing filmmaker. Wonderful and engaging dialog. His English is perfect, especially for a man raised in Iran with Swedish and current Danish residences. Can't wait to see the film! Cheers!
Yes , he is a genies , I love his movie " The Border " Fantastic movie ,that won " Un certain Regard award at the Cannes Film Festival ......
You didn't say amazing enough
His English might be a little more perfect, and tolerable, if he didn't pepper every sentence with several "ya know"s. Maybe somebody should tell him, because otherwise, his command of the language is not too shabby.
@ruthhenderson5413 "You know" is annoying. It's like .. "er," or "oh" or something to give the speaker time to gather his thoughts into speech
@@ruthhenderson5413
Was waiting for sommeone to point out that minor but annoying flaw in this otherwise perfect man!
Instead of it being blocked it will be a blockbuster
which is what Trump wants...there's always the mugney Sol!!,,it's all about the Mugney and trump smells it
collects it...bathese in it like Scrooge McDuck and he is about to rip off the Treasury via Musk and Mar a Lago.
My husband and I just got back from seeing this movie and it was excellent! I don't know why he tried so hard to prevent it being shown. The first bit actually shows him as human, showing the progression of how he ended up with the dangerously monstrous, delusional ego that has long since completely possessed him and that we see on display every single day.
don is a complete caricature of a strong man. He is shaped by the nurturing, or total lack of, that impacted his views of father figures. Add a heavy dose of indoctrination, ie coaching, by Cohn. The animal he accuses immigrants of being, is in the house. Hopefully not the White House
You can’t understand a group of people trying to block a film they haven’t seen? Get used to it. Ignorance is peak right now
When he wins again it will be mayhem and as repressive as other theocratic countries. @@MarsCapone
Don meets notorious Mob lawyer Roy Cohn (Jeremy Strong), who takes Trump under his wing (out of pity, he tells a friend) and teaches Trump that the world is a zero-sum game, one in which the winners must kill the losers to prosper. You’re familiar with that worldview because it’s now just called Trumpism. DENY DENY DENY and NEVER admit defeat no matter what. That’s DJT playbook . This movie is great. Very well made, Oscar worthy, 9/10.
To be fair, most of Trump's denials were as legitimate as the media narratives about him were garbage. His cabinet appointments were indefensible, however, given his campaign to "drain the swamp". Anybody who didn't see that coming and then call it out were f.o.s.
Maybe dumpy can watch Oscars 25 from a jail cell.
@@blutexas Presented by Jimmy Kimmel!
I agree
this is mob rule around the world, whether its mob or government. Thanks for clarifying
Mr Abbasi thank you for your masterpiece work which is one of the most important movie of our recent history
Are we ever going to get this weirdo out of our lives???
YES, and he is OLD thank God.
Cheeseburgers and coke catch up to everyone sooner or later.
Two people have tried and failed. Third time could be the charm.
VOTE HIM OUT!
You are right bc we ALL know that even if he loses, he will continue his rallies claiming that he won. Make his supporters think that the election was fixed or stollen. He is EVIL!!! We all know that he will continue to sell CRAP to the American people. He will grift until he dies. I pray that he does not beckon his crazy followers to do anything stupid or put lives in jeopardy, like he did on Jan 6th. He is an AWFUL man and I hope he has a lonely life, a loveless marriage (Check) and loses all of his money (1/2 of a check)…😂😂😂😂

@@e-cuauhtemoci’d suggest you learn more about the man and his intentions. The people close to him know him well and too many have spoken against him. I’m conservative leaning and I don’t believe trump has the country’s best interest at heart.
I am totally opposed to a narcissistic sociopath getting in the oval office, but it was a very illustrative movie, even when I already read 4 books on him.
I love that you guys got under his skin!
Saw this yesterday in our local theatre. Was pleasantly surprised to see it showing in my area. I was the only one in the theatre. I didn't detect a strong bias, just some ugly truths along with moments where I felt empathy for the characters, Trump and Cohn. It simply put in into a screenplay most everything we've already read or learned about Donald Trump and his rise to celebrity in the 70s and 80s. I recommend it.
Really? "Empathy for Trump!". How the fffffffffff!"
@@paulnewsome6289. Empathy for Trump? NEVER!!
Empty theater? Great! Trump lovers won't go and haters too scared to.
I don’t think he’s a PR genius, he’s just shameless. Putting your name on everything and tooting your own horn is not genius.
To be politically-correct: DonOLD Trump is the talent portion of the "Lobotomized Moron" pageant - be kind to his old ass because he's hopelessly senile, a malignant narcissist, and a BIG bag of horse shit all rolled into one oversized dumbass with the IQ of a rotten apple and the charisma of road kill.
Ah but it is, a pathetic kind of genius. You and I couldn't do it, it takes a special self-adoration to always consider what the appearances will be, even above your own happiness and pride. And best interests.
I agree Trump is ignorant narcissistic dolt.
Oh but he is a real PR and overall genius... That is why he won big time even by popular vote. He's always had a winner perspective even when he has lost. And it has nothing to do with ego, its because he wins the experience, wins the knowledge and learns from his mistakes . That is a gain not a loss, The psychological thought and perspective of calling a defeat a win, is a psyche trick programming to view it with positive perspective for it to be a reinforcement that encouragement a person to continue every merit until reaching its goal. Failure is a win because its part of success. Ask any billionaire that. That is why NEVER ACCEPT DEFEIT was engraved in his mind by Cohn. That is the mentality of a genius and a true warrior. that is why he is your 47th president. Learn from it.
Terrific interview. & good insight into Mr. Abbasi...
It would be hilarious if he got more and more orange as the film goes on.
After Halloween PLEASE!!! THE CHILDREN 🤭🤣
In a broad sense that would make it historically accurate. Haha

@@meknotewe8155 yup. Someone scooped the guts out of that pumpkin long ago. Not a seed of sanity left
I’m not an outsider and I see the relationship very clearly. Narcissistic
Went to see it, what an eye opener !!
Closeted gay man attacking other gay men, yeah, still around.
polestar of human evil
That was your takeaway??? He was a white man who secretly belonged to a marginalized gay community, yet still found the energy & entitlement in his white identity to discriminate against another marginalized community (Black people)!
I’m so tired of people skipping over racism to only analyze or speak on discrimination against the gay community. This clip distinctly mentions the housing discrimination against Black people, yet it’s always downplayed.
But yes, Gay white men, especially those with money, often do not concern themselves with the plight of others in a similar boat & instead, align solely with racial identity, even the politics are against their own social interest.
The Dem party didn't and wouldn't do a hit on donald.
@VeronicaRainone-h7ewhat would they say?
Obama and Michelle had no scandals.
How many presidents with 2 terms who can say that?
They are a real American family, not a white trash reality tv family,
@@MorganMingo70 Well it’s a pretty big takeaway…. Roy Cohn was Jewish like the Rosenbergs, didn’t stop him…. You can be whatever color, sexuality, political persuasion, social standing,or religion you want. He’d do whatever he saw as his interest.

It was me & 1couple in the theater today.
I saw this yesterday and thought it was really well done.
I highly recommend Angels In America. Al Pacino as Roy Cohn is amazing!!
Agree! Pacino was over the top good!!!
I almost forgot that not gay Roy Cohen died of aids. again it doesn’t matter what the truth is
That came to mind too
"Next time around I don't wanna be a man. I wanna be an octopus."
That was one of the best, most memorable dramas I've ever seen. One must have tissues available when they watch it.

I think it helps that he's Iranian-Danish who lives in the best part of Copenhagen. There are many of the same type here. I'm proud of him.
I wish this were on all the streaming platforms. I hope it helps to convince too many Americans that this man is totally inept to be President. I am glad this film was made, and I want to see it, although I don’t know if my stomach can take it, the man revolts me so. Ali Abassi sounds like a very interesting man, thank you for the interview.
I wonder if Fox news will do this interview with objective Fact checks? Before election?
He Watches Way Too Much Television 📺 And He Believes Is True. This Guy Is 78 Years Old. Trying To Block The Movie 🎥 Is A "TELL"
How else is he gonna know what his supporters want to hear?
If someone made a movie about you, saying you raped someone when you didn't, I think you'd prob be pretty upset about it.
Saw this movie it was terrific and it was so on point! I lived in New York in the 70s. I worked on Wall Street in the summer and yeah the time period too.
from the clips I have seen great insight as to how Trump is today. Excellent interview .
It's probably an excellent film. I just can't take any more of the sound of the word trump.
See it for Roy Coen then, Jeremy Strong was phenomenal! But I totally understand not wanting to hear the voice any more than necessary 👍
Same here ugh. The sound of his voice and the way he looks 🤢🤢🤢

To be clear I think they're both a joke. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling themselves.
@@chadillac2472 the alarm just went off loudly...time for reality LOL
Dont give him that level of psychic power over you man
Jeremy Strong who plays Roy Cohn is such a great actor. He's subtle and genuine in his portraying of his characters, and such a joy to watch.
He lives in Copenhagen, Denmark. Maybe Ali Abbasi and Jeremy Strong have met or are hanging out in Copenhagen?
Saw it today. Whoever plays Roy gave me viscerally sick vibes. He was the embodiment of corrupt.
Can't stand Trump but note that a Roy-like figure called Mileikowsky has taken Biden to the Dark Side and actually harming far more people as we speak.
Jeremy Strong.
He was awesome in The Big Short as well.
@@BradleyLaytonand excellent on Succession as well!
Before Roy Cohen, there was the influence of Trump’s pastor, a man named Norman Vincent Peale, who preached a prosperity gospel in which you can change reality by insistence. His book was “The Power of Positive Thinking”. That book,together with this movie, explain the why behind the Big Lie and what to expect after Trump loses the upcoming election.
And let's not forget Trump's obsession with Hitler.
He won’t lose unless it’s stolen from him!
Sane Americans are creating a different reality…one where fascists don’t win elections.
Fascinating
Yea but that's apples and oranges
I watched this movie a month before the election. It ran in my tiny local cinema for 2 weeks and barely anyone came to view it. I wouldn’t even have known what it was about if I hadn’t seen all the talk about it on UA-cam. Thank you for that! The film was really informative and gave me new insights into that horrible narcissist. I wish more people had watched the film. Realizing how much influence Roy Cohn had was eye-opening!
The movie is not anti Trump but tells what occurred. “ Never admit defeat”, says a lot in these times. He was not raised to care.
leftist "empathy" is a toxic character flaw that makes you people damaging to the future of this country.
Think his parents helped with that

They eventually will but not until after the election. Everybody who owns all of the media in the world, all right winged because they want control and keep all of their money in their pockets.
The biggest con ever concocted was nominating him for the presidency...
No, that would be the decision by Emperor Constantine to turn Jesus from a carpenter into the Son of God. This was done in 325AD to save his office, EXACTLY like Trump and Bibi are doing today.
This show needs to come out BEFORE the election & on REGULAR NETWORK TV so EVERYONE can see it. And QUIT calling him 'President', he got FIRED in the 2020 election.
Abbasi makes a film showing how money can buy high-class lawyers and pervert justice. Immediately receives a cease-and-desist letter from Trump’s high class lawyers…
One problem, Trump has to "settle" for shit lawyers, because he kept ruining the High-class lawyer's careers, OR, they leave him, because he won't pay them, because he thinks it's their honor to represent him.,..🤣
Trump understudying a McCarthy lawyer on how to bamboozle the world is the perfect movie for today.

I was buddies with 5 Iranian students for a few years before they were deported. They were all students at LSU studying petrochemical engineering. They were all members of royal Iranian family, they were very wealthy... very nice and very open and generous. We got along very well. Then one day they said we are being sent back to Iran.. the U.S. is deporting us... I never saw them again, they were gone within days.. My point is, they loved America were very interested in American life very open and liberal... I never heard or saw any of the discussing religion or any negative aspects of their lives,,, They were deeper hurt that they were being deported...
I lived in Iran two years (1966-1968). My youngest son was born there. I loved my time there and the people, like you said, loving and open. An Iranian here told me last week that life is much worse there now and that people actually sell their kidneys to survive. She told me a lot more. Said she had been gone 48 years and had not returned once because it was so bad there now.
One young man we knew there told us he really liked us and that it was too bad America started WW II.😢
💔
Ali lives in Copenhagen Denmark. Though we're far from perfect. He's not getting deported from Denmark.
A friend in the very early '70's was a girl from Persia, at high school in the UK. She was amazing - strong, intelligent, independent. I often think about her and can only hope she got out when it turned into Iran. She's the last person I could imagine wearing a burka.

Too Late! I saw The Apprentice at a movie theater yesterday afternoon. Although not what I expected because I thought it was going to be a behind the scenes movie about Donald Trump and the development and production of the NBC reality TV show The Apprentice, it does a pretty good job of showing the relationship between Donald Trump and New York City attorney Roy Cohn, who makes Saul Goodman look like an ethical and honest attorney in comparison. Instead, Donald Trump was Roy Cohn’s apprentice in the 1970s and 1980s, and just like anyone else, Trump threw Cohn under the bus when he learned everything he needed to learn from him and Cohn became an embarrassment to Trump because he was a gay man dying from AIDS.
Can't wait to see it.
“Concoction of lies”, yeah that sums up Trump’s whole life perfectly.
“Concoction of lies” Describes the movie, _Genius..._
Roy Cohn taught him that always pay the MOB who pour the concrete but rip of the small contractors. I saw with my own eyes in 1985 a quarrel with T and a few workman in the garage 7:20 who wanted to get paid. I was catering a party for his business at that time
Wow😳…do tell?🤔🤓
did he even pay you?
Wow!!! Enlightening viewpoints!!!!!!
I enjoyed this interview, and look forward to seeing the film. That said, from a clinical perspective and with all due respect, what the film-maker was describing as 'real human emotions', in reference to Trump, should more aptly be described as 'personality disorders' that have been in evidence since he was a young child. (It was precisely because of his severe personality disorders that Trump was attracted to, even mesmerized by, such an effectively malevolent and unapologetic person, who could both provide him with the tools necessary to get whatever he wanted, and to get away with whatever he wanted). Malignant Narcissists and those with Anti-Social Personality Disorder or Psychopaths, do not, in fact, experience emotions the way others do (although Narcissists, especially covert Narcissists, and Psychopaths can learn to mimic a range of emotions in order to manipulate and exploit others; however, the genuine 'reactions' they are most apt to experience are rage, frustration, disinhibition, paranoia and boredom). Brain scans have shown that the sections of their brains which govern impulse control, empathy, remorse, guilt and such are severely impaired / inactive, which explains why they are essentially shamelessly and cruelly transactional with essentially everyone. Of course, once Roy Cohen was no longer useful to Trump, or his 'image', he was discarded, as all sources of narcissistic supply eventually will be.
Thank you.
Could science actually prevail?
Director at least in the interview is fairly both-side-ing. Says you can see them as two heroes.
Hopefully the movie will reveal to Americans what the rest of the world knew ages ago..
I am a 47 year old 🇨🇦 female, even I have known TFG is an ignorant, selfish moron since forever... we get tabloids too!!
What happened
They know and don’t care. You underestimate how full of racism and hate this country is. It’s sickening.
With all due respect to Roy Cohn’s ability to corrupt, social media, and the Internet age made Donald Trump possible. He would’ve been a joke, and was a joke to just about everyone 25 years ago
That's when Russian had bailed him out. Trump is a failure as a businessman, he's just a bully
Talk Radio planted the seeds, Reality TV made him a contender and Social Media / Cambridge Analytica with some help from Putin pushed him over the finish line.
True
No, actually he was much more generally liked a while ago. Certainly, he was brash and people had various opinions about him, but he was a media darling. You don't remember when he was on Oprah and she basically urged him to run for president?
@@j3ffn4v4rr0 In the UK he looked like a bewildered imbecile who had no idea about business, it was comedy. We had Alan Sugar wh started with nothing and made mistakes but was smart enough to recover. He became a real billionaire, unlike Trump who lost daddy's business empire so badly he had to beg the Russians for cash.
My wife and I watched the new movie, 'The Apprentice' today and we think everyone should watch it to see exactly how and where Trump got his bag of tricks from.

But a dumber less intelligent version. Cohn told him he was gonna over leverage himself and the casinos were a bad idea but trump thought he was now the master. Roy was like no you’ll always be a student.

I saw it last night. Honestly expected it to be harder on him than it was. Admittedly not flattering, but given the horrible things he's done, he only looks like a very horrible person... Excellent acting, and given that's it a foreign production with apparently much of it filmed in Canada, they did a great job matching the US era presented.
