And then he gathers his family—Eric, Don Jr, Melania, a reluctant but finally committal Ivanka and especially Jared—and they all dive headfirst into an industrial, Trump-branded juicer. Praise be to the lord Our God.

TAXI DRIVER. As a young, sensitive, but clueless white kid, I saw this film at 16 & empathized with poor, sick Travis & recognized myself in him & I realized “if you’re not careful, you’ll become just like him.” I’m very grateful to the artists who made that film who showed me the dangers in myself.
