"There will token deportations only. The border will not be secured. Trump's big business buddies rely on a steady flow of cheap and easy to exploit labor to keep their costs low and profits high."
This is what I'm thinking. I think there will be the token deportations that you mentioned and probably some small success with stopping people from coming in. It will be just enough that he can claim he was successful, but not too much that businesses get mad at him for taking away their cheap labor supply.
I doubt there will be any serious punishments for employers. That seems almost too sensible. If any administration in the past, including Trump's, had aggressively gone after businesses who hire illegals then the number of people coming illegally would have dropped. If there is no work here, then most wouldn't come.
I'm thinking that Kreese will find out that his girlfriend from pre-Vietnam is actually still alive and he will reunite with her. Daniel or Johnny will somehow be involved in helping him discover this. Kreese will then no longer want to be enemies with them and will wind up helping them in some way.
I completely agree. Dream sequences in any show can be annoying, but this is over the top. Daemon has done nothing this whole season, but he is getting a ton of screen time. The dreams are just pointless filler.
It's about 5% as good. HOTD has a much smaller cast with far fewer storylines, so it is just less intriguing. I feel like season 2 doesn't even need 8 episodes. This story could easily fit into 2 or 3 episodes.
Early in the season Daemon went to a rundown old castle and demanded the loyalty of its people. Since that time, he has literally done nothing. He has had a lot of screen time, but it's just pointless flashbacks and talking to some witch lady about nothing interesting. Get on with it already.
Last night's episode was by far the most interesting episode of the entire series so far. I had found the show to be very slow but last night it seemed to finally get somewhere.
I think it is mainly because Trump is the candidate now. Bush was despised by Democrats for most of his presidency. He keeps a low profile today though, so people aren't reminded of him often. Also, most people under 30 are too young to really remember the Bush years.
Fair point about the adoption. I posted this before watching the whole thing.
The family make up remained absurd throughout the series.
Correct. As long as Pennsylvania, Michigan, or Wisconsin don't do this then it is really irrelevant.
While I am not a fan of Trump, I do think the people should have the right to decide if they want to vote for him or not.
I would say it's a prequel to Gene Wilder's based on the look of the Oompa Loompas.
The final show was the same as every other show on the tour. You'd think that they would have added a few extra songs and brought back some of the old band members. They didn't really do anything to celebrate it being the final show.
I saw it in the theater. I thought it was okay. Definitely not as good as the first two. I wasn't really buying into Mike Barnes as a big threat. I felt like if Daniel could beat Chozen in a death match, then he could easily have beaten Mike Barnes.
It's a strategic move. It's pretty bold but it seems to be working. He remains way ahead in the polls and his voters don't seem to care if he does the debates or not, so why risk messing up in a debate?
Yes, Ship of Fools is great, as is Big Log.
This is correct. People who are 80 years old belong to the Silent Generation.
I understand what you're saying in regard to the time period, but I don't agree that it is an issue for this movie. I think the fact that the prison was in Maine changes things a bit. In the 1950s, probably less than 1 percent of Maine's population was black. They wouldn't have had separate facilities for black inmates.
The fact that the other inmates all respect him and don't use racial slurs around/about him may be a bit unrealistic for the time period. However, when we meet Red, he had already been in prison for a long time. Perhaps things were harder for him when he first arrived, but he was able to earn the other inmate's respect over time.
I didn't have an issue finding the character believable. I honestly can't imagine anyone else playing the part.
Hulk fought King Kong Bundy at Wrestlemania 2. Hulk had his own Saturday morning cartoon before then, so he was already a household name. I would say that Roddy Piper made Hulk a household name. The Hulk/Piper feud is what triggered Wrestlemania to become a thing in the first place.
Bundy was great though. His match with Hulk was legendary.
It was very disappointing. I've always loved his comedy, but this just was not good. The stuff about Meghan Markle was good, but not much else.
The weird thing is that in the show, Roderick didn't have a love scene. He didn't even have anyone in his life to have a love scene with. I wonder what the scene in question was and if it would have changed the plot in any way.
How was the diverse cast explained well? He has 3 children who are clearly not the same race as him. Not mixed race, but fully of a different race. It would have made far more sense to say that they were adopted. (Sure, people will say that so and so is mixed race and looks more one way that the other. But here we are talking about 3 different people with 3 different mothers who all look nothing whatsoever like they could be their father's child).
The monologue about the supreme court and viagra was definitely pure political indoctrination. It was so over the top that it was almost comical to listen to.
