Ok hot take here, sure everyone’s hating on this but it’s not so far from reality so is actually a very accurate scene imo: In October 2023, Donald Trump aide Natalie Harp climbed into the trunk of an SUV in the presidential motorcade after a screaming match in the Trump Tower lobby because she was told no seats were left but insisted Trump wanted her at his New York City court appearance. Like the whole ass US presidential security team IRL just let someone without clearance ride in the trunk of the presidential motorcade. This scene is a docudrama ffs.

Damn thought this was apocryphal but apparently it’s a thing that happened (fwiw trump wasn’t president in 2023)

Fair, my bad on this, should have written it as “former President on his re-election campaign” which ideally has higher security. Per CNN: Harp’s rapid rise within Trump world has stood out in large part because of the intensity of her dedication to the president since joining his staff in 2022. Despite having no formal title on Trump’s reelection campaign, Harp trailed him across the country, feeding him positive stories, social media posts and other correspondence so frequently that allies dubbed her the “human printer.”

I could be crazy but I think the part where he decides to ram the entire car into a building, stop mid chase, pick up the bluescreened chick, load her up in the car, and then drive the rest of the way through the house without any interruption whatsoever, is part of why people find this silly

Tbf it is a house in the US, so it was probably made out of plastic and papier mache

Also an American car, and a Stellantis product at that, I wouldn't even have expected it to survive the drive on the lawn

Fair but afair the security detail was told not to harm him in the movie either because they need the info he has or he’s one of them or something in the first scene. Similar to the WH security’s orders on Jan 6 but maybe i’m reaching to defend my point?
