Trading Places Movie Perfect Depiction Of Cheeto’s GOP/Nazi World
It’s difficult at times to understand the arrogant world of the billionaire and wanna be power brokers of the Nazi/GOP today But the party was in control of the government when Reagan occupied the White House and it was during this time that the 1983 Eddie Murphy’s first movie at age 22 Trading Places was released….an encapsulation of the Great Gatsby with a twist
It was less salient at the time because it takes time to understand a party’s leadership In retrospect Reagan was a Cheeto in disguise All the trappings were there Reagan’s scandalous Iran-Contra affair was one of many(rigged grants at HUD, corrupt defense contractor WedTech scandal) but Cheeto has won the scandal department hands down
Even though Reagan peddled the fictitious “welfare queen”, in the elapsed 40y since, the Nazi GOP has gone full tilt on attacking the social safety net that many Americans have come to rely on due to ravages on the purchasing power of the dollar brought on by another dirtbag Nazi GOP’er Nixon taking the country off the gold standard
What Nixon, Reagan, and now Cheeto have accomplished is the biggest wealth gap in American history and more billionaires who are an arrogant group of slimebags that is graphically depicted in Murphy’s Trading Places It’s a must see now 40y later because it dramatizes the moral depravity and maliciousness of people craven to money and power
Your comment is timely. It was announced on Friday that Eddie Murphy will receive the American Film Institute Life Achievement Award in April of 2026 for his body of work in film and comedy. Thank you for pointing out the salient meaning and resonance of Trading Places and the one-off artistry of Eddie Murphy across the decades. I've always loved that film and Eddie Murphy's gift for playing the principled underdog who takes down the despicable top dog by speaking truth to power with wit and unflappable courage. Senator Kelly and his congressional colleagues are no underdogs. Their courage will resonate across decades. And history will have the last laugh on Mr. Hegseth. As it did with the likes of Senator Joseph McCarthy, whose showboat anti-communist crusade was taken down by Army counsel Joseph N. Welch, who dared to rebuke McCarthy during the Army–McCarthy hearings on June 9, 1954, saying, "Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last?” Senator McCarthy died a sad and lonely man from acute hepatitis of unknown cause, which later analyses connect to chronic alcoholism. History rhymes. Senator Kelly is Hegseth's Welch. Mr. Hegseth may trade places with the fate of the dishonorable Joseph McCarthy.
We need to go after DJT and all of his Cabinet for not being loyal to their Oaths of Office? Where is the Separation of Powers? Where is the monitoring of gifts and bribery? Among so many other unlawful acts.
Boycott all of them, any subscription service, communications provider, any on line merchant, any broadcast/media company who has aided in sabotaging our democracy. You know their names and their companies names, but I’ll add a few: Amazon, CBS/Paramount/Skydance, Tesla, StarLink, T-Mobile (partnered with Starlink), X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook. Boycott the NFL on every channel.
By refusing to patronize these traitors you can remove some measure of the rewards they have extracted by selling out our nation.
Thank you a million times for saying what needed to be said so strongly. I live in CA my husband is a career Marine a Vietnam veteran. We are watching in utter horror as our country is being destroyed by these incompetent criminals. We stand with Mark Kelly and every single true American patriot should. Hegseth will soon be the one facing an indictment for his crimes against the nation we hold dear. We need a sign to put in our yard to show our support for Mark Kelly.
Only a deluded cultist or someone profiting from Trump's Make the Rich Richer administration would not understand that Trump has weaponized the DOJ after falsely accusing the Biden administration of having done so. How contemptible, how utterly disgraceful, how perverse and corrupt does this regime have to become before the Republicans in Congress fulfill their constitutional duty and impeach and remove the filthy destroyers of everything we hold dear?
Steve, this is beyond disgusting but this is today’s distraction. It’s every day some crazy announcement to distract from Epstein. He’s a Russian mobbed up criminal always was and always will be. It’s a firehose of criminality. Just think back of all his crazy announcements taking over Greenland that was good for aweek.
I would enjoy seeing a decorated Mark Kelly in uniform sitting across from Pete Hegseth wearing his pathetic flag-printed pocket square. Another day, another immoral corruption, today’s attempt to change the news cycle focus from the Putin peace plan fiasco.
😡😡😡😡😡Im going to need another yard sign : “I stand with American Hero Mark Kelly”
Mark is shaking in his boots. NOT! He is strong. You don't fly combat, become an astronaut, and fly into space several times. He is laughing at the 🍊 and 🍸.
Mark is was a hero and is still a hero.
Amen Brother!
ICE is now in Longview, Washington.
Spotify is advertising with a 50 K bonus, new ICE agents. Boycott Spotify Now!
Thank you, just cancelled my subscription and told them why.
I wonder where else in Western WA…I live north of Seattle and there have been some raids but nothing like the city invasions.
Trump looks like a melting Port-a-Potty.
Thank you 🙏🏽 Steve! No US citizen, civilian or military, deserves to be treated this way.
Your perspective is deeply appreciated and very important at this moment. I am sharing your message on all the platforms I use❣️
Kathy Aldrich, Captain, US Navy (Ret.)
Thank you Steve!!!

Wonderful comment Thanks McCarthy died an alcoholic death What's with this GOP Nazi group consumed with money, power, and alcoholism? Eh Mr Hegseth?
In the absence of character, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
AMEN

And where is the outrage about his Gestapo on steroids.
