Meet aspiring actor Donald J. Trump. He has been treated very unfairly.
While the name is likely unfamiliar to even the most avid cinephile—Trump has never been one to thrust himself into the spotlight—the roles he’s played in film and television are nothing short of iconic. His breakout role in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York as a nameless Good Samaritan who points a lost Kevin McCallister toward the lobby of a garish hotel earned him the admiration of moviegoers as he found it in his heart to help the boy when no one else would. Today, Mr. Trump is the one in need of help from those as kind as himself as he faces unfortunate legal troubles.
While the details are hazy, Donald Trump reportedly faces lawsuits in the state of New York as well as in Washington D.C. and he is in need of financial support to help hire a competent lawyer. It’s unfortunate to see an actor with such promise (he was once even interviewed by Billy Bush of Access Hollywood!) sucked into a legal battle that he can’t afford to fight. Although the perception is that most in show business are wealthy, Trump is a testament to the notion of the working actor, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck. Despite a string of bit parts in the 90s such as spots on The Nanny and All My Children, the aspiring star has not done much in recent years, leading to his financial struggles. Until recently he was a very active presence on social media, particularly Twitter, often demonstrating to fans how convincingly he can slip into a fictional situation with utter conviction.
This talent is why it is so important that we help fund a legal defense for Donald Trump. For his part, he’s maintained that he has done nothing wrong in these matters. Other actors, such as Dean Caine and even Dr. Frasier Crane himself, Kelsey Grammer, have spoken very highly of Trump’s character publicly and repeatedly. Support from such peers as these and even the legendary Tim Allen speaks volumes of Trump’s innocence and further highlights the need to help this man beat these charges so he can return to work.
