We speak with the director of _The Apprentice_, "the movie Trump doesn't want you to see," which opens today in theaters despite legal threats from the former president. The film looks at how Trump was mentored by Roy Cohn, former chief counsel to Senator Joseph McCarthy during the Red Scare. He went on to represent Trump as he built his New York real estate empire, and "was the person who sort of built Trump, as a person, as a brand, as an identity," says Abbasi.

During Donald Trump's presidency, he spent 298 days playing golf, marking the highest number of golf days by any U.S. president within a single term. The U.S. economy contracted at the fastest rate since 1946 and the unemployment rate reached 14.7%, the highest since the Great Depression. The U.S. national debt expanded by 40.43%.
Can you please provide the sources for your claims?
Yep Donald Trump is a unique degenerate

I saw this movie on the opening night. It's excellent, and it is not "pro" or "anti" Trump -- it's quite based on real events that can be easily verified. They went to great effort to accurately replicate historical scenes. Ali Abbasi did a great job with this movie.
Closeted gay man attacking other gay men, yeah, still around.
polestar of human evil
The very fact that Trump is trying to block this movie shows he is both not really a free speech advocate and ashamed of his past
He has the right for trying to block a movie, it is about him. He has no right to use the judge system for it, like democrats use to silent dissidents.
Free speech is not about trying to shut up somebody , it is about abusing or change the law for it.
And in the end, it is wrong, of course, but it is quite hypocritcal after covid, 6th jan, 2020 elections etc…to make a big deal of it after all the power did.
Won't vote for Trump but I would watch this movie 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃.
Shouldn't Julius & Ethel Rosenberg be the example for Donald & Melania Trump?
Who did more govt theft and espionage?
I recently saw the movie “Border “. Excellent film by this director.
It would be hilarious if he got more and more orange as the film goes on.
After Halloween PLEASE!!! THE CHILDREN 🤭🤣
Check out the doc "Where's My Roy Cohn?".
Someone too weak to handle art with total power is a danger to all, imo.
That’s why he has big-tech-scensor-comlex on his site. Google spend a lot of money on his campaign.
Just a mirror, just a mirror Ashley.
Trump wouldn't be opposed to a movie about Biden or Harris. Just saying. 😏
I knew about Trump’s relationship with Cohn. It’s why the former is so good at lawfare.
When has Trump engaged in lawfare? I need an example to take to my uncle.
@@mrmines2000 >> There are actually quite a few examples going back to the 1970s. I don’t doubt he would have triumphed over his court cases if the juries hadn’t been politically possessed.
@@mrmines2000 What do you think suing CNN, suing late night comedians, suing anyone basicalyl who had any negative commentary against Trump is? Hell he is even suing the film-makers of this movie, He is the most draconian anti-free speech authoritarian politician ever, he didnt succeed in silencing a lot of critics, but he tried and tried hard.
@@jaybee9269 "politically possessed" what? This is a case of the chicken and egg, you cannot be a politician and accuse everyone of having a political bias against you, you decided to incurr in politics, you created the problem yourself.
@vanessamaldonado5877 but he either withdrew the suits or the judge dismissed. Those examples are not exactly something I can use at the Thanksgiving table.
I highly recommend Angels In America. Al Pacino as Roy Cohn is amazing!!
Agree! Pacino was over the top good!!!
from the clips I have seen great insight as to how Trump is today. Excellent interview .
the actor playing Cohn looks eerily like the evil Steven Miller. Good casting.
A movie about Fred Trump would resonate with every human being across the board. Fred drank for various reasons, it's also a personal choice. I'm not attacking him. He is understood. A man dying at age 42 of complications from alcoholism is a human being numbing himself from his past and present experiences. I know Fred's experiences are far more interesting and tragic by far a misplaced soul. Can you imagine a brother the complete opposite of you. A narcissist that one can not wrap your understanding around, this would also apply to Trump Sr. Most have commonalities to this in particular. I believe the illness America suffers "one of them," is the feeding of the narcissistic element alive in anyone, choose goodness/soul for all or it's only about me. Fred, the underdog and unwilling to sacrifice what is left of his soul for alcoholism is a sword slicing many times over. That is the movie which could capture the World. Worth mentioning is the complete participation of Donald's mother. Her payoff, the materialistic realm, the cost her soul. Love and affection has a cost. Americans know this without a doubt. Watch narcissist's as they lose to justice. It's beautiful. Look at Bill Clinton, a brilliant survivor of the alcoholic family using the tools of "the high achiever," he's admitted this. He simply played the card of JFK and a saxophone and the psyche of America loved it. Sly in every way. Bringing you war and NAFTA against every citizen in America. Still, Bravo for the movie.
THANK YOU
Fascinating will look forwards to watching your film and following you
Bless you AMY GOODMAN
Never forget Roy Cohn was a self-hating closet case
Happy to hear the mention of “ Angels in America “

"Theyre eating the dogs". 😅
lmao the good old "please, I really don't like that" letter.
Need to watch it!
I can’t wait to see it
Can't wait to see the movie
Amazing
He said "Some people might call Donald Trump racist because he doesn't want those type of people in their property, but some might say they don't want the problem" 😮
Looks great!
Sebastian Stan could play Luke Skywalker and I wouldn't even bat an eye. The resemblance is uncanny.
thank you so much! very interesting, shrewd interview!
You know it’s bad if it’s “defaming” a rapist and insurrectionist.
Do you think that Donald and Roy ever got romantic?
It's probably an excellent film. I just can't take any more of the sound of the word trump.
As a business major and entrepreneur, i loved the apprentice! I watched it weekly!
Im watching thi movie fir Maria B❤
trump may not drink alcohol but he did do coke! and pills ik the families all did n he was with the 5 major families at parties that were guarded by NYPD my family is still nypd and they all talked back when i was a little girl it was very well know trump did drugs mostly pills
Good catch this is the period that shapes my perception of Trump most likely the rest of the nation does not know about Trump.
It will help Trump. The trailer shows American values. Cheat, rob, lie, destroy as long as you "win".
Does the movie address why Oprah was asking a real estate Hustler if he planned to run for president?
If it gets under it's skin suit, the orange one, I'm down for it 🎉
he should do a series of trump… his family history! how he came to be
What about the true ruling class families? Or does the truth matter as people in the USA are so complacent that the truth is just entertainment.
All reprehensible Evil AF
Damn! They are sending Bucky after Trump? The Dems are pulling out all the stops. Wheres Cap when we need him?
“Bombs are going to drop anyways”. Ditto.💯
I thought Trump was the champion of free speech!
I guess I was wrong.
Yeah 😢. Free to speak approved words only
HOW DESPERATE! Who owns the media? Liars
First here, release this movie 2 weeks before the election
That way people can get more pumped about trump being president again!!!!

Show it before the election
I do want to see this movie but, from seeing the clips, I can tell the soundtrack which sounds too loud and sounds like music from Succession, is going to bug the hell out of me. Also, the theme song from Queer as Folk in the promo! Really!
How or where do we see this movie?
Released everywhere today!
A theater near you!
So they're stupid brutes., what i hear later aint enough. As a political operative he was a dollar tree but no Roosevelt
I think i get it. Lol
I'm interested! It won't change my mind. Not voting for Harris!
That actor's hair is too thick to play Trump, and he's not orange enough!
This is based on his early years...
FYI, the Joe McCarthy hearings were in the 50's not the 1960's. Also Roy Cohn's last name is one syllable not two. It's pronounced CONE.
They did pronounce the name correctly. The trials were both in the 50s and 60s.
sometimes Amy likes to play little games like when she pronounces Cone like Cohen. she's from NYC silly goose
it tells you that the US political system/parties are only different on social issues and have the same foreign policy, no matter who you vote for.
Stein. If enough sheep will jump the fence.
Just remember America... dramatization equals fiction not non fiction...
Thanks oh enlightened one.
@@RealityChecking4u you're very welcome oh sarcastic one
And yet many Trump cultists still think Biden was somehow involved with his son Hunter in "corruption" because they saw it in the movie about the Bidens....oh the irony of wanting to shut down this movie when right wingers already created their fiction movie about Hunter Biden.
PD: Oh and dont forget the "mock trial" of Hunter Biden, right wingers have a serious delusion problem.

docudramas suck how about real history instead of a pageant
Pro-Democratic Party propaganda. What else can you expect from DN?
This could easily be a lawsuit why tf would they try this? It’s like defamation on steroids lmao. I don’t care how much someone likes or hates Trump, there is 0 way a movie can accurately portray a persons life, without a lot of things going into it that would involve Trump himself.
It’s kinda lame we don’t have more movies of other historical figures lives. I think there is one of JFK and MLK but that’s about the best we got.
What? There are documentaries about everyone famous. The first amendment allows creative interpretation.
@@MIForrestguy Oh, it can definitely get into defamation quickly.
Think of some of the most evil men in America from the last 70 years who are still alive and very much connected to large corporations and banks, Or just illegal activities in general. Why don’t we have movies about them?
I’m not trying to play the “well ___ did it too!” Game, I’m just sayin there is clearly something that stops producers from making “documentaries” about people who have much more control.
By the way, don’t like your own comments🤦♂️ it’s just weird. You had one like on your comment less than 2 minutes after sending it. You definitely like your comments bro.
@@User_yhvz calling out people who like their own comment is extra weird. Why does it matter lol
You aren't as intelligent as you think. Lmao@@User_yhvz
@@MelvinFan200 ….Calling me weird for calling someone weird, by your logic is also weird. Did you just hop out of a microwave ?
What an incredible "ya-knower" repeatedly, over and over again. Almost every other sentence and multiple times in sentences this guy says "you know." I had to turn this off. I couldn't stand hearing such a preponderance of this too common butchering of American dialect.
Filler words are part of speaking, just listen to what the guy is saying.
Next movie: Kamalas corner or how I slept my way to the top
Every job she had since 2004 was an elected office. You’re not even trying to make something that makes sense, are you?
