YOU KNOW ITS COMING SO PITCH YOUR TRUMP MOVIE NOW! Why wait?

Too much already out there. It'll have to be a miniseries at the very least.

At first I imagined something like "Frost/Nixon". Covering a small and specific event.

But then I had to think of the drama "The Downfall", about the last days of Hitler and the Third Reich. Told from the perspective of his secretary. And then it hit me:




Plot:

The movie is told from the viewpoint of a low-level WH-aide. It covers approx. 1 week or 1 month. Trump himself is a minor character with little screen-time.

The movie starts out with Trump in a bad situation, because of some scandals. Over the course of the movie, we see him as an irrate, borderline-dement old man who thinks that everybody is out to get him.
In reality, what brings him down is his incompetence, his inability to stop believing his own lies, and the infighting of his aides.

The movie would be about these aides.
We get backstabbing,
we get leaks,
we get dysfunction,
we get shout-matches between Priebus and Bannon behind closed doors,
we get WH-aides slipping Breitbart conspiracy-theories onto his desk,
we get WH-aides exchanging tips how to babysit Trump,
we are living in a perpetual crisis,
we get non-stop drama about how to spin the latest scandal,
we get the permanent tension of working for a boss who lies on a whim and does not care about sabotaging the hard work YOU are putting in for HIM.

Plus a sub-plot how his marriage has grown cold and distant. He treats his wife like a political prop and in return she despises his touch. We see the deathly stares she's giving him... and he's so self-centered he doesn't even realize that she doesn't love him anymore. He's too occupied with his power-plays and vendettas to notice her revulsion.

The movie ends just like it began. Scandals, spin, scheming, drama, perpetual crisis. The only difference is that Trump has sunk a little bit lower into madness and self-inflicted isolation.

Trump is of course the orange.
