President Trump has given us the controversy for the day, like a teacher handing out the

homework assignment.

The controversy is should the movie parasite have one best picture and is gone with the

window better movie.

So Trump at a campaign rally last night decided to go on an extended riff on this subject,

which is great because a lot of people don't realize this, but actually constitutionally,

the president is considered the nation's chief film critic.

That's one of the enumerated roles of the president of the United States.

So it says so right in the document.

So that's good.

And it happens that he did get this one right.

I have to say, he said that parasite should not have one best picture.

Now his problem is apparently that parasite is South Korean, it's a foreign film.

That's means not the issue.

The issue is that it's just is not a very good movie.

I watched it myself this past weekend.

In fact, now in fairness, I was in a delirious half dead state with the flu.

So maybe that affected my judgment of the movie.

I don't know, but it really seemed to me to be a sort of okay movie that is also a metaphor

about class struggle.

But the filmmaker beats you over the head with the metaphor that there's just no subtlety.

It has all the subtlety of one of the speeches that the dad and full house gives at the end
