Peter Burgess COMMENTARY
I cannot stand Trump. For me, he is the personification of evil.

When I was young ... and Trump was young ... I was impressed by the building projects the Trump Organization with Donald Trump carried out in Manhattan. For me this started with the rehab of the ice rink in Central Park, and then the Commadore Hotel next to Grand Central Station, and then the iconic Trump Tower on 5th Avenue. Later I learned that very little of the important 'management' of these projects was handled by Donald Trump but by some very competent minions!

I saw how Trump handled his staff when I was visiting the Trump casinos in Atlantic City in the mid-1990s. Trump came through the main gambling section of the casino together with some 20+ members of his staff close by where I was standing! Trump exuded authority barking out instructions to the staff around him ... but I was struck by essential superficiality of what I was observing. This was, after all, a few months ... or maybe it was just weeks ... before the whole Trump edifice in Atlantic City collapsed.

My dislike for Trump was aggravated substantially by his 'management' of the Trump casino failure and the multiple bankruptcies. In the end, Trump seemed to lose very little, but the many small contractors, employees and the like who essentially lost everything courtesy of brilliant Trump style lawyering!

Trump should have been in jail a long time ago. The idea that he is running for President again and hand any support at all is beyond me. If Trump gets elected to the Presidency in the United States this November, it will be a disaster with huge consequences!

  • Trump doesn't want us to see his medical
  • records even though he said we could
  • Trump doesn't want us to know anything
  • about anything to do with him that's why
  • he constructs such crazy narratives
  • about himself and his career because
  • it's nicer for him to live in a false
  • reality than to acknowledge the fact
  • that well for one he lost the 2020
  • presidential election or that he is
  • losing the 2024 presidential election or
  • that he's not the smartest man in any
  • room or that he is not the Pinnacle of
  • Health neither mental nor physical that
  • he would like for us all to believe he
  • is despite what we can see with our own
  • eyes and not everyone is a shining
  • Paragon of Health but to be fair not
  • everyone claims to be Trump does though
  • he has a strongman image that he likes
  • to portray even if that means publicly
  • sharing AI generated or photoshopped
  • images of himself looking ways he has
  • never looked and engaging in Behavior he
  • has never engaged in here he is out in

  • 1:02
  • the mountains as some kind of rugged
  • state trooper enforcing the law the way
  • they did in the old days what is he here
  • a border patrol agent does Trump know
  • how to use that gun the man does love a
  • cowboy hat though here he is with six
  • fingers on one hand praying in a church
  • Trump shared this one on social media
  • himself and we all remember this one
  • here he is hanging out with black people
  • we know he doesn't hang out with black
  • people who is he trying to fool so after
  • Trump's first assassination attempt
  • where he was nicked on the ear he turned
  • up at his next big public event the
  • Republican National Convention with a
  • giant bandage on his ear for a bandage
  • so big it would imply a pretty
  • significant wound and significant wounds
  • typically take a while to heal
  • especially for a guy who's pushing 80
  • but the ears seemed to heal very very
  • quickly so quickly that it had people
  • wondering how bad the Graze really was
  • on top of that being shot at would be a
  • traumatic experience for anyone but
  • Trump likes to pretend he's above

  • 2:00
  • anything that people like himself would
  • perceive as weakness after the shooting
  • sources close to Trump reported he's
  • been watching that 7-second clip of how
  • close he was to getting shot right in
  • the head over and over and over again he
  • may actually legit have
  • PTSD but PTSD which would be a totally
  • normal mental and physiological response
  • for someone who's been shot at is for
  • weak people it's not for Trump after the
  • shooting Trump was examined by doctors
  • and as he's done so many times in the
  • past he bragged about how well he
  • performed on the physical and cognitive
  • exams he said he got a perfect score for
  • his physical health and he said he aced
  • the cognitive test just like he aced
  • very difficult cognitive tests in the
  • past that turned out just to be dementia
  • screenings here's what he said most
  • recently I got everything right one of
  • the doctor said I've never seen that
  • before where you get everything right no
  • I have no problem I'd go step further I

  • 3:00
  • think anybody that runs for president
  • whether they're 75 or 65 or 45 should
  • take a cognitive test I don't think very
  • many people would argue with that last
  • part but if we're testing the cognition
  • of our political candidates shouldn't
  • those results be made somewhat public
  • there is currently no requirement of
  • political candidates to disclose medical
  • records but this is only a story because
  • Trump promised to release his and he
  • still hasn't he didn't in 2015 either
  • back then he was years younger but he
  • just released a statement from his
  • personal doctor where he said Trump
  • would be the healthiest person ever
  • elected to the presidency then he got Co
  • Reports say his condition was far worse
  • than Trump wanted anyone to know they
  • said that in the moment where he stood
  • outside the White House and triumphantly
  • pumped his fist in the air after having
  • defeated this thing that had killed
  • thousands of Americans on his watch he
  • was struggling to stand upright then he
  • survived the first of two assassination
  • attempts in which a grazed his ear apart

  • 4:01
  • from the potential psychological effects
  • of this there could have been less
  • obvious physical effects as well
  • according to Dr David ringhouse from
  • Butler Memorial Hospital which is where
  • Trump was treated after the shooting he
  • said anytime there is a high velocity
  • injury particularly from a weapon and a
  • gunshot there is potential for
  • significant damage you have to be very
  • meticulous and very diligent in the
  • evaluation of even something that may
  • appear to be minor The Daily Beast also
  • reports reports that trauma surgeon Dr
  • Kenji Iana offered a more optimistic
  • take on Trump's injury saying that given
  • Trump is walking talking campaigning and
  • doing things normally it can be inferred
  • that he didn't suffer from any major
  • effects that could be caused by a gun
  • wound to the ear like bleeding between
  • the skull and brain or ear bone damage
  • so the overall story here isn't
  • necessarily that Trump won't release his
  • medical records Biden and Harris haven't
  • either and as I said none of them are
  • required to the story is that he
  • continues to insist that he is something

  • 5:01
  • that he likely is not and whenever he
  • offers to deliver proof he just never
  • does people should either stop taking
  • his word for things or demand that he
  • follows up with his own promises all
  • right that's it for me if you got
  • anything out of this please like the
  • video and subscribe to the channel for
  • more thanks I have to say as soon as I
  • heard that this was being threatened
  • that I might not be able to see it if I
  • wanted to made me want to see it all the
  • more do you think there's an element of
  • that that it could help with the
  • publicity and you know if Hollywood
  • pitches it the right way it could
  • actually bring in the
  • eyeballs look I think Alex you're
  • totally right if you see a poster on a
  • on a a building hoarding that says The
  • Apprentice the movie Donald Trump
  • doesn't want you to see how many people
  • do you think are going to go and want to
  • go see that movie for obvious reasons
  • actor Sebastian Stan is playing Donald
  • Trump in a new movie called The
  • Apprentice but Trump is trying to stop
  • the film from being seen by the public
  • some people have seen it though it's

  • 6:00
  • already received positive critical
  • feedback from media journalists who saw
  • the film at festivals like can tell
  • youde and Toronto and the film is set to
  • be released in theaters on October 11th
  • just a few weeks before election day
  • let's talk about the new movie The
  • Apprentice uh it's a drama depiction of
  • Donald Trump's early years as a New York
  • Real Estate Mogul it's getting some
  • pretty good reviews but it does not
  • always portray Donald Trump in a
  • flattering light and the Trump campaign
  • as you know threatened to sue its
  • filmmakers any other updates Dom on
  • where The Apprentice stands today and
  • potential legal
  • action well as is so often with Donald
  • Trump and the Trump campaign huff and
  • puff but they don't blow the house down
  • this was a threat the threat was given a
  • May 27th deadline that deadline is come
  • and gone it's not quite an October
  • surprise because the movie isn't coming
  • from either American political party
  • also I doubt any Trump supporters will
  • go see this movie so it's unlikely to
  • sway their stance on him as a
  • presidential candidate the filmmaker is
  • even American Ali Abasi is an Iranian

  • 7:02
  • Danish filmmaker and he currently lives
  • in Copenhagen he's made some Danish
  • movies he's made some Iranian movies he
  • made a Swedish movie called border a few
  • years ago I actually saw that movie it
  • was crazy I think it was good it was
  • certainly different maybe go see it I
  • don't know what you're into but I don't
  • know it was it was an interesting movie
  • however most people might recognize him
  • from The Last of Us he directed the last
  • two episodes of the Show's first season
  • when I first heard about this movie I
  • just assumed it would be an Adam McCay
  • film but admittedly that might just have
  • been because Jeremy Strong is involved
  • Jeremy Strong plays opposite stands
  • Donald Trump as Roy con the American
  • lawyer who is perhaps best known for
  • serving as senator Joseph McCarthy's
  • Chief counsil during McCarthy's Infamous
  • Red Scare of the 1950s he was also
  • incredibly active during the lavender
  • scare which targeted and persecuted gay
  • people in government despite con himself

  • 8:00
  • having been known to be gay con died in
  • 1986 of AIDS and up until his death he
  • insisted that he was actually dying of
  • liver cancer because of the implications
  • of AIDS at the time however in the 1970s
  • which is when the film takes place Roy
  • con was the mentor and Donald Trump was
  • his apprentice and fun fact just to give
  • you an idea of how truly skin crawling
  • this guy is he was the inspiration for
  • Mr Burns on The Simpsons so how did this
  • guy get wrapped up with Trump the answer
  • will not surprise you Trump and his
  • father were being sued by the US
  • government for discriminating against
  • black renters in their properties with
  • the help of con who was well known
  • amongst the New York Elite by that time
  • the trumps counter sued the justice
  • department and settled the case from
  • this Con began teaching Trump the ways
  • of power how to weaponize narcissism how
  • one should never apologize how to attack
  • when attacked how to manipulate the
  • media to to your advantage how to use

  • 9:00
  • fear to ensure loyalty and more con has
  • worked with members of the New York City
  • mob he has been a notable influence for
  • people like Roger Stone and speaking of
  • loyalty despite con's name not really
  • coming up very often anymore when
  • attorney general Jeff sessions recused
  • himself from the investigation into
  • Russian interference during the 2016
  • presidential election Trump according to
  • reporting from The New York Times quote
  • erupted in anger in front of of numerous
  • White House officials saying he needed
  • his attorney general to protect him at
  • that point Trump reportedly asked
  • where's my Roy con a short teaser clip
  • has just been released from the film we
  • can't show it to you here but you can
  • look it up and watch it for yourself the
  • scene shows Strong's cone in the back of
  • a car withstands Trump with cone
  • coaching Trump through a call advising
  • him to be more grandiose more hyperbolic
  • but still humble sort of in the clip you
  • see a young Trump struggling to grab
  • the Cadence of exaggerated speaking that

  • 10:02
  • he has since become known for but you
  • can see how he morphed from what may
  • have been a somewhat normal guy who
  • happened to inherit millions of dollars
  • from his family to whatever Trump is
  • today between mentors like con and his
  • father Donald never stood a chance and
  • perhaps he didn't want to perhaps Trump
  • today is exactly who he always wanted to
  • be but if that is the case he and his
  • people don't seem to want you to know
  • that for one billionaire and Trump
  • supporter Dan Snyder who indirectly
  • helped to finance the film tried to
  • block it from coming out Snyder you
  • might know was once the owner of the
  • Washington commanders formerly the
  • Washington Redskins and he was accused
  • of everything from sexual harassment to
  • workplace discrimination so much so that
  • the NFL ran their own special
  • investigation into the allegations and
  • that's saying something he was
  • ultimately ousted from the NFL but he
  • was still able to sell the team for over
  • $6 billion anyway Snyder's stake in the

  • 11:00
  • film was bought out so his efforts to
  • block the film didn't get him very far
  • and according to reporting from The
  • Daily Beast Trump has said that he plans
  • to sue the filmmakers he's particularly
  • upset about a scene in the film
  • depicting Trump raping his first wife
  • Ivana Trump the film also shows Trump
  • who is famously sober and doesn't know
  • what cocaine is like allegedly indulging
  • in amphetamines and Trump spokesperson
  • Steven Chong told The Daily Beast we
  • will be filing a lawsuit to address the
  • blatantly false assertions from these
  • pretend filmmakers this garbage is pure
  • fiction which sensationalizes lies that
  • have long been debunked well the movie
  • is out there now and it's getting Oscar
  • buzz Jeremy Strong is said to have given
  • an Oscar worthy performance as Roy con
  • and honestly I wouldn't expect any less
  • from him will any of this have any
  • impact on the November election though
  • it's hard to say and it would be hard to
  • track something like that this isn't the
  • first time a groundbreaking move movie
  • has come out prior to an election either

  • 12:02
  • there was the film where's my Roy con
  • that came out in January of 2019 not
  • immediately before an election but it
  • was out there there was also Sasha Baron
  • Cohen's Borat subsequent movie film that
  • released in 20120 just before the
  • election just a reminder that was the
  • movie that gave us Rudy Giuliani talking
  • to an underage girl with his hands down
  • his pants but did people not vote for
  • Trump because of that movie did Biden
  • win in 20 because of that movie who
  • knows and of course this is a movie it's
  • not a documentary and even with
  • documentaries you have to be careful of
  • bias what was included and why what was
  • left out and why what are the motives
  • driving the people involved in the
  • project etc etc movies can be inspired
  • by true events but the framing of those
  • events is critical as far as how those
  • events are received and understood but I
  • want to see the movie I like both of
  • those actors they both tend to take on
  • challenging and interesting and

  • 13:01
  • transformative roles which is fun for me
  • as an audience member Ali Abasi as I
  • said I've only ever seen one of his
  • other movies and it was wild so I'm
  • curious to see what he does with a less
  • Fantastical premise this video further
  • proves that Republicans don't care about
  • the rights of anyone that does not agree
  • with them Donald Trump had White House
  • staff call the Disney Corporation to try
  • and censor Jim jmy Kimmel because the
  • former president didn't like his jokes
  • Trump himself used the power of the
  • presidency not to push for more freedom
  • of speech which all of these anti-woke
  • Republicans swear they care about but
  • instead he used that power to restrict
  • or try to restrict a business from
  • saying what they wanted to a republican
  • trying to control a business speech in
  • this case you have Donald Trump using
  • the presidency to call Disney who owns
  • ABC to tell Jimmy Kimmel on his show

  • 14:01
  • Jimmy Kimmel Live to stop making fun of
  • him imagine what this would have been
  • like if a Democrat Administration would
  • have called Fox news to tell them to
  • tell Shan Hannity to stop lying on their
  • Administration which probably would have
  • been true knowing how Fox lies all the
  • time not by mistake by Design to keep
  • viewers and also relevancy with
  • Republican base this is ridiculous y'all
  • Jimmy Kimmel has responded to this
  • saying that president Karen demanded to
  • speak to my manager in order to censor
  • My Free Speech through corporate
  • ownership this is ridiculous but the sad
  • part about it is its roots are not just
  • in Donald Trump or the current
  • Republican party its roots is about a
  • Republican party realizing that its
  • racist ideas no longer appease to anyone
  • other than white men for the most part I
  • I applaud you guys for going back 5
  • Years cuz we're going to find out that
  • that President snowflake uh through
  • calling Twitter and calling uh Disney
  • was trying to hurt people's Free Speech

  • 15:08
  • because you know it it upset him he
  • didn't like being called names just look
  • at this incident just like this incident
  • think about this we scream about China
  • and its use of business to Monitor and
  • control what information Chinese
  • citizens receive I.E Tik Tok I mean Our
  • Own federal government has banned the
  • use of Tik Tok from any federal employee
  • on any federal device but we pretend
  • that Trump's behavior in in this and so
  • many other scenarios is any different
  • than that of China I guess America is
  • always going to America when it comes to
  • its flexibility around white men's need
  • to be victimized as this country
  • continues to Grapple with the fact that
  • we will never be a country designed only
  • to benefit white men at the expense of
  • everyone else the Republican part isn't
  • just harming itself it's also harming
  • our democracy because we can't function
  • as a healthy Dem democracy if we don't
  • have at least two parties at least two

  • 16:02
  • parties that are sane and productive the
  • Republican party in this country isn't
  • being sane it isn't being rational it's
  • just being racist it's just being sexist
  • it's just being anti-immigrant all the
  • things that America isn't or isn't
  • supposed to be if one reads Constitution
  • if one reads the words on the Statute of
  • Liberty if one believe the principle
  • behind the founding of this country the
  • president of the United States called
  • Mickey Mouse about Jimmy Kimmel's joke
  • with hopes with hopes that he would be
  • able to censor sir Jimmy Kimmel's
  • cracking jokes on him I can't make this
  • up and if I did you wouldn't believe it
  • the sad part about it is as funny as it
  • is it's true and scary and it's scary
  • because a large swath of this country
  • has accepted Donald Trump's behavior and
  • Republicans who perform in this manner
  • regardless of whose rights they're
  • trampling on and that is the most
  • anti-American thing I can think of
