    I wonder how many Trump supporters watch without realizing that Mr. Potter in all his greed and lack of empathy is Trump (though in fairness, arguably a better businessman than Donnie). I’m going to wager all.

      There was a post a few days past about someone watching the movie with his dad and his dad just says he’d shoot Mr. Potter.

      OP then asked his dad, “so you’re okay with shooting the CEO now?”

      Dad shut up about it after that.

      Conservatives like to believe that they are the heroes of the story. Where they are the paragons of virtue but in reality, they want to control and oppress people. That’s it.

        I remember years ago someone ran down what Potter’s horrible, evil, awful, inhuman, immoral, interest rate was on his loans…

        2%.
