When They Make the Movie – Who Will Play Trump?

You just know, somebody, somewhere, at some point – will make a movie about all of this. All of this living under Trump for 2 to 4 years in the mid to late second decade of the 21st century.

And when they do – who will play Trump? What actor could best portray a phony, narcissistic and lying dictator-wannabe?

Alec Baldwin, of course, first comes to mind, because of all his Saturday Night Live episodes, where he played a comedic Trump.

But the movie won’t be a comedy. More like “All the President’s Men”. Or “The Post”. Or the movie on Mark Felt who was “Deep Throat” during Watergate. Serious movies. Serious historical chronicles.

So who could play Trump?

Gary Oldman? He was just excellent as Winston Churchill. He won Best Actor for “Darkest Hour” at the Oscars this year.

Russel Crowe? He’s very talented. He’d have to add some weight – and heavy makeup.

Who would you like to see play Trump?

Okay – new question: Who will play Robert Mueller? The Special Counsel.

Liam Neeson was good as Mark Felt. He’d make a great Mueller, all serious, and never breaking into a smile. But he can’t be an action-figure this time around; that was taken.

Who would you like to see play Mueller?

And then, we have to ask : who would play Kelly Ann Conway? Sarah Huckabee Sanders? See, isn’t this fun?

Roger Stone – he’s a character already – he could play himself, when they let him out of prison.
