  1. Now,use your imagination:imagine if Donald Trump had played the part of the POTUS in the movie "Independence Day".Imagine him jumping into an F-16 & fighting the aliens after countless other fighter jet pilots had been shot down.And then imagine him giving that amazing speech, "Today we declare our independence" after the war had been won.Honestly,what a heck of a movie that would be,and possibly an extended commercial.Admit it,doesn't that give you chills just thinking about it?
