Parasite. No, Not The President. The Film.

Headlines:

"Trump isn't pleased a South Korean film won best-picture Oscar"

"Donald Trump rips 'Parasite' over historic Oscar wins"

Is it really any surprise that he doesn't like it?  Of course not.  We've known for some time now that not only is Donald Trump totally illiterate, very likely has attention-deficit disorder and does NOT like to read, and given that Parasite is a foreign language film WITH subtitles, yeah, of course he hates it.
Pretty sure some of his favorite works of literature include such best sellers as "Where The Wild Things Are", and "Good Night, Moon", books that keep his attention for upwards to 5 minutes with lots of bright, colorful pictures!

(Think large format picture books)

Oscars for Parasite, 2019:

  1. Best Picture

  2. Best Director, Bong Joon Ho

  3. International Feature Film, South Korea

  4. Best Original Screenplay

And, of course, the much bigger question, how, as President of the United States in 2020, how does he have time to critique and offer ANY opinion about ANYTHING pertaining to Hollywood?  How does that work?  And, why, is that important to Him?  Not sure how that, any of that pertains to "upholding the Constitution."

Again, just because you CAN have an opinion, doesn't mean you SHOULD have an opinion. It's just exhausting!
