this is obvious satire because 100% would be WAY too low

He's also arranging to subsidize 3/5 of any movie showing slaves happily working the cotton fields.

…what an age we live in where I wasn’t even sure if this was satire or not before seeing “The Onion.”

@SebastianWeinberg

Satire in the era of Trump must be a gruelling job. The amount of work it takes to come up with concepts outlandish enough that there's a slight chance they might not immediately be taken for the truth, and maybe won't come true for at least a week or two…

There's a non-zero percent chance Trump takes this as a real news source and convinces himself that he did that.

He has turned his back on people like me who voted him into office. I’m a depressed 30 year old alcoholic and now you’re telling me I can’t even go watch a movie that has a sad ending without a 100% tax added on?
