What Jenkins said:
“[Donald Trump is] one of [the inspirations],” Jenkins explains, although she stressed that it is not meant to be a political statement. “The funny thing is like, he is [an influence], but I’m not trying to make [a point]. Even we have the president in this movie, and I’ve gone out of my way not to make it look like Ronald Reagan. I don’t want to get political. It’s not about political. Actually, a huge influence of this movie was also Madoff. And so what I was looking at was, those young Madoff story [sic] fascinates me, because I’m like, ‘How do you end up being Bernie Madoff?’”
I’ll take huge influence over “one of” , and as we saw on screen, it certainly fit her statement.
Whatever the primary influence, the movie—in my view—sucked big time. Especially compared to the first film, which was excellent in action and story telling.
Comparing Lord to Trump is interesting for Trump’s political critics…but at the time this is portrayed in the movie, Trump was a card carrying Democrat. He was being given the Eillis Island aware by NYC alongside Rosa Parks and Muhammad Ali for his championing of Minority Causes. If Lord is suppose to be Trump, then he’s the Democratic-supporting Trump of the 1980’s….the Trump that Democrats at the time loved and awarded.
