5. SOMETHING SIMILAR WAS TRIED BEFORE
Sat Jan 24, 2026, 08:35 PM
Jan 2026

When Sarah Palin was running for vice-president, someone made a documentary about her but the story it told ended before her controversial attempt at being VP in order to avoid the negative publicity for her stunts. The film wasn't expensive to make but still lost money and got something like 3% on Rotten Tomatoes. I look forward to the reviews for Melania. On a site which ran the trailer for the film I suggested it would have helped the film more had it included pictures of her wearing her Vampirella costume, but I expect that isn't in the film either.
