Well...pretty much a knock off on the Biden team, isn't it? I mean...we've had years, really decades of politicians speaking in Blabber, and with each successive administration, it gets more stupid and obvious to everyone except the crew at WaPo, NYT, The View, and MSNBC. (CNN is a cartoon network at this point). From Bush 1, to Clinton, to Bush 2, then to Obama- where the bullshit level was raised to new heights, and from there it was only a slight run to Trump, which brings us to where we are now.
Surely what is shown on this video (which is funny, by the way) is an approximation of daily events with Joe, Kamala, Jen Psaki, Antony Blinken, Ned Price, and all of their panels of experts?
PS- love the slam on Michigan State. An astronomer from a state school, not Harvard or Stanford. The question is, can I be in the room for 2 hours with Meryl Streep? Probably not.
Funny script. Great actors. It was pitched as a female Trump mishandles the biggest crisis ever to hit the Earth via his trademark stupidity and anti-science attitude. But in the end, liberals save the planet. It is a metaphor for covid and global warming.
What is this Hollywood obsession with apocalypse movies? I'd say it's part of the climate change economic scam but this one has a comet(?) Are comets caused by climate change now?
Team Biden is on top of it. Joe is always convinced he is the smartest guy in the room, says his friend to Peggy Noonan. She replies, is it a small room?
Temujin is right. This rings true as Team Biden in action, right down to Streep's smirk and the dismissal of the less credentialed.
Does the next scene show other leaders encouraging everyone to visit Roswell so as to avoid blaming the inevitable catastrophe on aliens? Followed by a stay at home order? Because on one hand there is nothing to worry about, but on the other hand the adults have to do something.
I don't think the end of the earth by global warming can be predicted with the same mathematical certainty as a meteor impact, but that's the subtext here.
DiCaprio does manage to look like Jonah, though not sound much like him.
The most unrealistic thing about the fanciful plot, is that an anti-Trumper like Jonah Goldberg would ever work for Trump. A 100% chance of a civilization-ending comet strike is more believable than that.
Temujin said... The question is, can I be in the room for 2 hours with Meryl Streep? Probably not. -------- Just wondering >>> is that desire/wish or endurance test?
Is this going to end up like "Knives Out" and "Get Out," which were positioned as slams against the deplorables like me, but destroyed the smug liberals instead?
For example, "Knives Out" had its liberal characters hating on Trump, and yet they treated shabbily the foreign woman who helped the author (and inherited his money). They mouthed the right pieties, but their acts were pure bigotry.
Sorry, the scene is nonsense. That Michigan State astronomer would have notified other astronomers about his find, the other astronomers would have then verified that the comet was coming. All it would take would be a couple nights of seeing the comet coming closer without moving across the sky. Then a prominent astronomer would have gone to the White House with our Michigan hero-astronomer to confirm that. Also, a big press release.
More tendentious junk from Adam McKay, who gave us The Big Short and Cheney. No doubt it was aimed at Trump, but the satire seemed to be more of Washington politics in general than of Trump in particular.
DiCaprio's character also seemed to be typical of scientists who can't communicate their ideas to people and blame them for their fault. What you don't see his how even the specialists get things wrong, and how there was no authoritative "Science" when it came to COVID and no clear prescription from "Science" for climate change.
Jonah Hill's character did seem like one of Trump's sons -- or like a character from Veep, or like any young staffer in any other administrations -- but Trump did have the sense not to make one of his kids chief of staff.
Lurker21: Exactly. Nerds are responsible for dumbing down technical contents so ignorant morons can not only understand but be able to take right action based on it. Is there anything else you don't feel it's your responsibility to handle? Please let us know so we can adjust our behavior accordingly.
This is a perfect example of the idiot right demanding compelled speech.
By the way, Michigan State had the top osteopath (Dr. Larry Nassar) for the USA women's gymnastics team. He was so good that he cost the university $500 million to settle the claims against him.
I thought that the goal was to make Trump a non-person, ala the Soviet Union. That is tough to do when you are continually creating false narratives to smear the man and his supporters.
The Left is pretty ridiculous these days. Normally I would not worry about such childish stupidity. However, we have a several generations of brainwashed children out there and a lot of intimidated liberals who are afraid of the SJWs.
We are heading towards totalitarianism at a rate greater than I previously imagined.
Howard: Did you not watch the clip? It was clear that DiCaprio's character couldn't communicate the urgency of the situation. That's why the other scientist had to take over.
I suspect though that the real life COVID situation wasn't that so much that the scientists couldn't "dumb down" their language so much as that they had no clue how to handle the situation.
But thanks for the insults and turning everything into a left-right pissing match.

What do you want to bet that at this very moment Jonah Goldberg is trying to convince his wife that she's married to Leonardo DiCaprio lookalike?

Sorry, What part of ANY of that; had ANYTHING to do with Trump?

DiCaprio is wondering what to do with the English spaniel that met him in his kitchen this morning. Keep the dog, Leo.
More panic porn?
Not sure I get the Steep-Trump comparison.

I read that wrong. I thought it said Tedium Tease.
I don't think the end of the earth by global warming can be predicted with the same mathematical certainty as a meteor impact, but that's the subtext here.
I see what they're doing here the comment is a metaphor for covid and Meryl Streep is playing Donald Trump in drag.

Once again - I had to turn it off mid way thru.
Hillarywoodland sucks.
Meryl Streep looks like the love child of Geddy Lee and Sean Penn. eeeek!
Thirteen times Trump said the coronavirus would go away.
Why do "smart people" like stupid things like this?

VEEP has already been done.
I haven't seen the show, but just knowing it's Streep and reading through the comments, I'm already bored out of my skull, by proxy. Yech.
How did they let those 2 guys without a single Oscar nomination have lines the oval office?
The Chi Com lab virus will be with us forever. It will morph and continue to kill people.
Thanks chi com lab virus.
They meant it as a metaphor for Trump and the Corona Virus, but everyone will see it as a metaphor for Biden and Afghanistan.

Like it can’t represent Trump and Biden both.

Meanwhile, Joe Biden is well on his way to becoming America's most-hated vegetable.
