"The Green, Green Grift of Home"

There's definitely space for some Musical Theatre on the subject and I think Roy is just the person to write it.

I think an orange jump suit would complement Trump's orange skin just perfectly!

So what you're telling us is that basically you're writing screenplays for Ben Shapiro Enterprises?

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

One of the comments from that video -

“ I cry every time I watch this movie, it's such an amazing portrayal of the men behind the freedom of Texas.”

I’m exhausted. Yet again.

Kudos to Roy for highlighting the similarity of the Alamo myth and the Last Days of Mar-a-Lago. Of course, Trump probably thinks he’s in “The Alamo” and “White Heat,” while the rest of us see him and his buddies as the first squad in “Deadpool 2.”

Great to see the band back together. Now I gotta watch Repo Man this weekend.

Brilliant, as always, although I think the correct musical accompaniment to Trump and his henchmen attempting escape by golf cart really should be Yakkety Sax.

I think a Trump/Giulani scene like the end of Carpenter's "The Thing" would work well. I refuse to write it myself.

PIERRE: I’m afraid, sir, the Proud Boys are not coming.

MILLER: Gott in Himmel!

Cue Hitler/Downfall parody.

And while we're on the subject: That line in The Green Leaves of Summer--"A place for to die"--is hilarious. "Gee, Paw. Ever since that fancy New York interior decorator came and gussied up the farm house, we been livin' in a place for to die!"

Related book about slaves, Mexico, Texas. There's YT videos of the author talking about it too.

Just hilarious. I always hear this line from Strangelove whenever I imagine Miller speaking to Trump:

"It would not be difficult, mein Fuhrer. Nuclear reactors could... I'm sorry. Mr. President."

I bet he makes that "mistake" all the time.
