30. I BET HE DOES -- Just like the BAD president does in this fictional Movie -- MY FELLOW AMERICANS

My Fellow Americans is a 1996 American comedy film directed by Peter Segal.
It stars Jack Lemmon and James Garner as feuding ex-presidents, with Dan Aykroyd, Lauren Bacall, Esther Rolle, John Heard,
Wilford Brimley, Bradley Whitford and Jeff Yagher in supporting roles.
The film is named after the sentence for the traditional opening of presidential addresses to the American people.


THIS IS MY FAVORITE PART, Near the ending of the movie ::: Douglas and Kramer interrupt Haney's speech and take him to the Oval Office to talk. There they play Haney a tape of Witnaur's confession, but Haney denies knowledge of Reynolds' murder or the helicopter explosion. Haney agrees to resign and proceeds to give a resignation speech, claiming to have heart problems. Douglas and Kramer muse that the idiotic Matthews will now be elevated from Vice President to President and realize that the only way it could have happened was under these circumstances. The pair confront Matthews, who admits that he, not Haney, had engineered the entire plot so that he could become President, knowing Haney would take the fall. Matthews explains that his stupidity was just an act, but Douglas secretly records his confession on tape.

~~~~~ > Matthews is sent to prison.
(I wish there was a video of the fictional BAD PRESIDENT (John Heard) being led out of the White House in handcuffs !!!!

That is what i was to see happen to Trump
