Trump trolls Trudeau because CBC clipped the president's scene in Home Alone 2 screening

And yes, he found a way to make it about NATO

Eagle-eyed viewers are taking the CBC to task after it emerged that the broadcaster’s recent screening of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York was missing one significant cameo: that of Donald J. Trump.

Hours after Twitter blew up, the president of the United States threw in his two cents, retweeting a Fox News story and commenting, “I guess Justin T doesn’t much like my making him pay up on NATO or Trade!”

Three minutes later, he retweeted another article reporting the movie edit and said, “The movie will never be the same! (just kidding).”

In the 1992 hit film Trump can be seen, briefly, passing Kevin McCallister, the character played by Macaulay Culkin. The scene, in which Kevin asks Trump how to get to the lobby, was filmed at New York’s Plaza Hotel.

Trump has always liked the cameo in one of Christmas’s most-loved films, and told a media conference call just this week, according to Deadline:

“Well I’m in Home Alone 2. A lot of people mention it every year, especially around Christmas. They say — especially young kids — they say, ‘I just saw you on the movie.’ They don’t see me on television as they do in the movie. But it’s been a good movie and I was a little younger, to put it mildly. And it was an honour to do it.”

“And it turned out to be a very big hit, obviously. It’s a big Christmas hit — one of the biggest. So it’s an honour to be involved in something like that, you always like to see success.”

However, if you tuned into CBC’s latest broadcast in search of Trump’s proud moment, you were out of luck. That’s because the broadcaster cut several scenes out, for time purposes, back in 2014 — long before Trump became President Trump.

“As is often the case with feature films adapted for television, Home Alone 2 was edited for time,” CBC said in a statement, responding to viewer concerns.

“The scene with Donald Trump was one of several that were cut from the movie as none of them were integral to the plot. These edits were done in 2014, when we first acquired the film and before Mr. Trump was elected president.”

In total, the CBC has said that eight minutes were cut from the movie.

That explanation hasn’t stopped Twitter from having a meltdown, though. Various characters of all political persuasions have weighed in on the crisis — some loving Trump’s removal, some seeing sinister forces at play.

One user tweeted, with a reference to Trump’s recent labelling of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as two-faced:

“Canadian government funded TV channel is so triggered that they cut (Trump’s) Cameo from Home Alone 2 while airing it over Christmas. I bet ‘two faced’ Trudeau made the call directly (to CBC) and demanded they cut the scene.. Or maybe just black it out #DefundCBC.”

Ryan Fournier of the group Students for Trump let fly:

“CBC TV in Canada has cut Donald Trump’s Home Alone 2 cameo out of their broadcast. They’re so triggered by him that they had to edit him out of the film. Absolutely pathetic.”

Another user, George Conway, husband of Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, was a big fan of the edit. The lawyer has been a vociferous critic of Trump, despite his wife’s role.

“You see, Senators? It’s not that hard,” he tweeted, linking Trump’s “removal” from the film to the ongoing impeachment proceedings that could see Trump removed from office, in the unlikely event that the U.S. Senate votes to do so.

So far Trump himself hasn’t taken to Twitter on the matter, but his son Donald Trump Jr. has, tweeting a link to the story that led with the word “pathetic.”

CBC edit of Trump scene from Home Alone 2 was done in 2014
Broadcaster responds Thursday to complaints that edit was politically motivated

CBC confirmed Thursday it deleted a scene featuring Donald Trump from the movie Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, but the broadcaster says the cut occurred before he became president and was not politically motivated.

Several media outlets reported Trump's cameo in the 1992 movie was edited out of the CBC TV broadcast of the movie earlier this month.

In the uncut version, Trump appears for some seven seconds in a scene set at the Plaza Hotel in New York, when Macauley Culkin's character Kevin McCallister asks him for directions to the lobby.

The current criticism appears to have originated from a report on Comicbook.com after complaints began circulating on social media following the recent broadcast.

Supporters of Trump, including his son Donald Trump Jr., reacted angrily, believing the move by the public broadcaster was politically motivated.

CBC spokesperson Chuck Thompson confirmed Thursday that Trump's scene and others were cut from the film five years ago to make way for commercials.

"As is often the case with feature films adapted for television, Home Alone 2 was edited for time," Thompson said. "The scene with Donald Trump was one of several that were cut from the movie as none of them were integral to the plot. These edits were done in 2014, when we first acquired the film and before Mr. Trump was elected president."

Thompson said a total of eight minutes was trimmed from the film. He said it was too early to decide whether CBC would air the movie again next holiday season, and whether or not Trump's scene would be added back in if it does.

Trump announced in June 2015 that he would run for the presidency, and was elected in November 2016.
 
新闻里看到这个,以为是小的不能再小的事,新闻说就是为了插个广告,闲总统多余了。没想到这还惊动了总统。

他老人家大概是360行都想做个遍,加拿大还不配合,删去精华,可气。
 
CBC这是要替主子出口气吗?:evil:
CBC很有远见啊:小土豆当选总理前一年就预料到他会是自己未来的主子,床普当选总统前两年就预料到他们将来会怼起来。
 
是不是2014剪的,无关紧要了。川普又上头条。
铺垫。
 
那里面的滑冰场也是人家的怎么办?
 
病虎也比猫强。

小土豆还是老外,不能太表面化。越是知道老美勾结保守党整他,越要做出尊重恭敬美国的样子。

近则远之,远则近之。《孙子兵法》
 
床铺上台以来一直就在演戏,真的那个做作得不行!
