Anyone who knows the public story of Roy Cohn and his protégé Donald Trump is likely to enter director Ali Abbasi's The Apprentice anticipating one particular turning point in the pair's complicated relationship.
Donald turning his back on Roy, when the notorious fixer was dying of an AIDS-related illness, wasn't like the offhanded betrayal of a business interest, wife, or moral principle. Although, Abbasi (Holy Spider) and screenwriter Gabriel Sherman (Independence Day: Resurgence) supply ample scenes of their Donald, embodied spectacularly by Sebastian Stan, betraying trusts.
Former President Donald Trump posted a video of a web ad attacking the Biden-Harris administration for allegedly seeking to create a "woke" military more concerned about LGBTQ representation than being "tough."
Trump -- who like other Republicans, has seized upon LGBTQ issues as one way to appeal to the party's socially conservative base voters -- has previously made the same attack at some of his campaign rallies.
The ad compares two conflicting "visions" of the military in Trump's view. For Trump's military vision, it includes clips from Stanley Kubrick's 1987 war epic Full Metal Jacket. For Kamala Harris, meanwhile, it depicts a military that cherishes and respects the LGBTQ community, which the former president considers ruinous.
Two sitting Democratic congressmen came out publicly against allowing transgender females to compete on women's sports teams.
This continues an alarming trend of people on the political Left blaming LGBTQ visibility as one of the reasons for Republican victories in this year's elections.
Following Donald Trump's win in the presidential race and the start of post-election analyses to determine why most voters shifted heavily away from the Democratic party, U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-N.Y.) told The New York Times that the party "have to stop pandering to the far left."
