I got the idea for this thread from the following article.


One of the problems with writing about Donald Trump is that you can never be quite sure what you are dealing with. Some days, he comes across as a dangerous authoritarian intent on installing himself as America’s Vladimir Putin or Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Other days, he comes across like Frank Costanza—George’s father on “Seinfeld”—a crotchety old guy from Queens railing at the world.

WHY DOES DONALD TRUMP LASH OUT AT EVERYBODY, EVEN JUDGES?


I can see Trump's similarities to Frank Costanza. I think Trump comes across as being more like Frank Costanza in his tweets than in his speeches. When I imagine Trump tweeting, I sometimes visualize a raving, angry man just like Frank.

Then I thought that Trump may be closer to Archie Bunker of All In The Family. The clips below are actually quite like the way Trump's simplistic thinking is sometimes. I find the complete unwarranted confidence, the boneheaded stupidity, and the orange skin to be a little too much here.

I started a thread about that.

Has the 'Back to the Future Part 2' Donald Trump prophecy already come to pass?

‘Back to the Future’ Writer: Biff Tannen Is Based on Donald Trump

Quoting from the article linked above:


“We thought about it when we made the movie! Are you kidding?” he says. “You watch Part II again and there’s a scene where Marty confronts Biff in his office and there’s a huge portrait of Biff on the wall behind Biff, and there’s one moment where Biff kind of stands up and he takes exactly the same pose as the portrait? Yeah.”

Of course, in the movie, Biff uses the profits from his 27-story casino (the Trump Plaza Hotel, completed in 1984, is 37 floors, by the way) to help shake up the Republican Party, before eventually assuming political power himself, helping transform Hill Valley, California, into a lawless, dystopian wasteland, where hooliganism reigns, dissent is quashed, and wherein Biff encourages every citizen to call him “America’s greatest living folk hero.”

“Yeah,” says Gale. “That’s what we were thinking about.”


Now that Trump has been elected president, we've immediately got chaos and lawlessness in some places. It sometimes looks exactly like the alternate timeline involving "Biff World" such as the scene below.

In my opinion, the Back to the Future Part 2 Donald Trump prophecy (for lack of a better term) has already come to pass in a slight way. Let's hope the madness stops here. I believe it will, but I think this is a noteworthy development.
