Why did "The Apprentice" movie fail, Variety asks? One of the possible explanations they don't offer, maybe it's a bad movie. (archive.ph)

That article feels like it was written by two different people. The entire thing is surprisingly reasonable and logical about how "accusing the president of a crime might not go over well after he already threatened to credibly sue you once" and "people act like we are already living under a dictator and quiver in fear." Even acknowledging how its a completely worthless movie that only has appeal to anti-Trump people to begin with, who won't care about something that doesn't paint him as Mega Hitler.

And then the final paragraph completely contradicts that and says he is Ultra Hitler already in power of his authoritarian regime scaring good people into cowardice. You can see the shift almost happen like a light switch where it goes from "reasonable anti-Trump perspective" to full blown TDS.

It's like the editor stepped in and said "hey you humanized Drumpf a little too much for our readers so I had to spice up the ending for you."
