#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter has an ego big enough like Trump that he named the public library after himself.

#ItsAWonderfulLife George finds out that Bedford Falls would be Pottersville without him. Potter put his name on the whole town, just as Trump puts his name on his own buildings and even the Kennedy Center.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter's comment that George is worth more dead than alive has pushed George to wish he'd never been born at all. Trump has made many Americans feel like they don't belong here as he pits people against each other.

#ItsAWonderfulLife At that point, Potter issues a warrant for his arrest, wanting to look tough on crime just like Trump.

#ItsAWonderfulLife George is begging Potter for the money Uncle Billy misplaced and tells him he's worth more dead than alive. Sort of like how Trump doesn't care about immigrants crossing the border in search of a better life, often risking their lives on the way.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Back in his office, Potter finds the money sandwiched between the paper and keeps the money, sort of like how Trump had Pete Hegseth and the US military seize Venezuelan oil tankers and is going to have America illegally keep the oil it seized.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter will take things he is not entitled to, like Uncle Billy's misplaced $8,000 sandwiched between the paper with Harry's Congressional Gold medal headline that he takes from Uncle Billy's hands.

#ItsAWonderfulLife George rejects the job offer telling Potter sees the world as revolving around himself and his money. Similarly, President Trump thinks the country is all about himself, his money, and power. Which is why Trump added his name to the Kennedy Center. Big egos for both.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter offers George a job and then an authoritarian style handshake with a very tight squeeze. At that point, George shows us how to handle a job offer from the Trump Administration. He tells Potter the answer is no.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter asks George if he is afraid of success (edited out on the tv version.) when George asks about the future of the Building and Loan. Potter and Trump both see themselves and symbols of success as they extort people.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter brings in George Bailey for a job interview. Potter has tried for a long time to get control of the Building and Loan. When George accuses him of stealing everything else in the town, Potter delivers another Trump style insult, calling them envious suckers.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter never misses a trick just like Trump. Offering 50 cents on the dollar in that proposed deal for the Building and Loan shows he just wants power and control over the people of Bedford Falls and the ability to deny them a quality affordable home.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Potter acts like Trump in a few ways here. He calls George Bailey to spread a false rumor that the Bank would close. He was willing to gamble that he'd lose money taking over the Building and Loan, just like Trump lost on his casinos.

#ItsAWonderfulLife This whole Board Meeting showcases every way in which Potter is like Trump. Potter accuses the "discontented lazy rabble" of getting special treatment in getting loans. He looked down on ordinary hard-working people.

#ItsAWonderfulLife George Bailey and his father Peter talking about Potter. Peter says Potter hates everyone who has what he doesn't. Specifically, morals, class, and character. He would say the same about Donald Trump.

#ItsAWonderfulLife Henry F. Potter first appears in a horse drawn carriage. Sort of like his version of "The Beast," the black limousine that transports US Presidents. "The meanest and richest man in the County," just like the current White House occupant.

Gross incompetence. Nothing new from this Administration.
absolutely incredible -- CNN host introduces a segment about Trump's "new healthcare proposal," but less than two minutes later breaks into her script to announce "breaking news" that Trump's healthcare proposal is being postponed

Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.
