This is a straight up bribe. I’m a filmmaker, with some real credits and connections. I couldn’t have set this up if I tried. Docs are almost impossible to set up and nobody GAF about Melania’s story. By and large, docs don’t make money. After marketing, this will be a $45MM loss, if they’re lucky.

Starting to think she's accumulating resources for a bust out. Wonder what her number is.

In other news, WaPo has a hard-hitting piece on whether men or women are more romantic

Business as usual in Trumpland! He makes money, the people including the cult pay! That’s the way it will be for the next 4 years unless the clown show is stopped somehow!

Who the hell is going to watch it?

birdloveranne.bsky.social•8 days ago

No one will watch it. If they even make it.

I won’t watch it… let him eat the loss. Lol

The worst is that Amazon obviously expects that there will be viewers for this kind of garbage. And they're probably right.

Working on it.

I haven't used Scamazon in decades — except twice, when I received gift certificates from places I volunteered with.

I thanked them, and strongly suggest they instead provide volunteers with gift certificates for local businesses.
