re: What do you think were the politics of the President in “Civil War”?

quote:

In the movie, the president has hands. You know who else has hands? Trump. Checkmate libs.

Perfect analogy because that prez had black hands, just like Obama, oh wait

His hands were old withered and had shakes like Biden, oh wait

I think his hands had deep southern roots like Bush and Clinton, nah doesnt 'sound' right either

So in the end, even his 'hands' could only be Trumps

You can pretend all you want, but they even went after Fla for some odd reason. Making them be the odd man out, and wanting to kill the journalist because Fla isnt really part of America. Which former prez represents Fla? Oh thats right, Trump again

He invented red ties

How many pictures did you have to go thru to get Obama in a red tie. It took me 32

I googled Obama red tie so it came up instantly. That's from his first inauguration so it's not exactly a hidden occasion.

Also wearing a red tie at a famous moment

Maybe you should have read the wrtiers comments before getting out on that limb by yourself

Garland was also asked about the vagueness of the war’s politics in his film. Civil War. One of the president’s first actions was to disband the FBI, which seems like a nod to Trump, who has called to “defund” the Bureau. And it can't be a coincidence that one scene is set at a Western Forces military base in Charlottesville, Virginia, site of a notorious 2017 white supremacist rally. The city's name itself now bristles with political division.

“I personally think questions are answered,” Garland said. “There is a fascist president who smashed the Constitution and attacked [American] citizens. And that is a very clear, answered statement. So I think answers are there but you have to step to it and not expect to be spoon fed these things. It makes assumptions about the audience.

“The warnings [about the country falling apart] all out there, but for some reason they don’t get any traction,” he added.

Plus this

"It's an intensely political film," he explained, but one that doesn't spell things out, with him providing "dots that can be brought together" and connected according to individual political opinions. "This [fictional] president is a fascist," he noted, adding that he didn't know how many more dots anyone needed to go on.

He called you leftists idiots, and perhaps he didnt spoon feed you enough

The president was the leader of the other faction, basically. Plemons was in that faction.

I think I fell asleep before my brain could think about it.

Man was I excited for that movie. I am a huge Garland fan.

So basically people really wanted a confirmation bias movie.

If you see Trump, and yourself, in these characters, I guess you would know better than I. But but for people that think fascist ruler and murdering psychopath look like fascist ruler and murdering psychopath, those characters looked an awful lot like a fascist ruler and a murdering psycopath.

you even had a 'but but' in there.
