Trump Card
Dinesh D'Souza, when will you learn to not obsessively defend Donald Trump or make movies bashing Democrats needlessly?

Trump Card is a 2020 "documentary" film directed by and starring Dinesh D'Souza, and a loose follow-up to his 2018 film Death of a Nation. It was released on October 9, 2020.

Plot

Trump Card presents itself as an "exposé" on the Democratic party, mainly Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders.

Why It Ain't Important

1. Once again, it still doesn't improve anything from its two predecessors, and it still retains the same problems from D'Souza's previous films, such as:
   • In the first animated scene about Trump's "Commodore Hotel" deal, which began in 1974, a sign saying "E. Trump & Son" is shown. However, Trump's company renamed itself "The Trump Organization" in 1973, a year earlier.
   • When Lincoln is seen traveling from Springfield, Illinois to Washington D.C., set in 1861, his "House Divided" speech is heard. While the speech was indeed said in Springfield, Illinois, it happened in 1858.
2. D'Souza still sucks at directing documentary films about Donald Trump and is still overly defensive of him.
3. False advertising: The tagline on poster said it is D'Souza's important film. But in reality, it is not D'Souza's important film.
4. D'Souza complained about the "democratic agenda" of transgender people. However, he ignored that Trump put it on his agenda too (for example, he wanted to ban trans people from the Army, which he signed off on in 2019).
5. The film attempts to say that the Democratic Party is full of socialism, corruption, and grangerization, but fails.
6. D'Souza claims that Biden and the Democrats are evil and that the Republicans are "better" than Biden or the Democrats, even though Biden was the Democratic nominee for only a few months.
7. Once again, D'Souza tries so hard to make the film look true, but fails miserably.
8. The movie promotes the unproven story of Biden's son Hunter and the idea he was involved in illegal activity while his father was Vice President. One example is when D'Souza describes the idea of impropriety in regard to a supposed payment of $3.5 million to Hunter Biden from the wife of the mayor of Moscow. Exactly how any of this makes Joe Biden unqualified to be president goes completely unexplained.
9. This movie tries to act like PBS’s Choice 2020 but failed as Choice 2020 was to focus on controversies, while this is propaganda.

Reception

Much like previous D'Souza films, the film was panned by critics, Vadim Rizov gave the film an F, saying: "By this point, D'Souza is unconvincingly frothing on the soundtrack about how 'the socialist left and the Democrats want to make us grovel' and 'make us worms,' but the whole premise is, predictably, a radical, cynical misunderstanding of Orwell." On Rotten Tomatoes, it doesn't have a critic score, but it has a 74% audience score rating.
