People my age vividly remember Marlon Brando play “The Godfather.” It made a powerful impression on most people who saw it, including, no doubt, 26-year-old Donald Trump. It made such an impression on him that he, himself, decided to make himself into a Godfather, just like Marlon Brando in the movie. And he did.
So when you see the Don at Mar-a-Lago, think back to his inspiration, Don Vito Corleone.
In one of the iconic scenes in the movie, the Don receives those who wish to ask him a favor. It’s his daughter’s wedding day, and he is willing to make a gift of a favor granted. The supplicants are escorted in to see him and make their request.
I see Apple, and Amazon, and Google, and Facebook and Trudeau and all the other visitors to Mar-a-Lago, and I think back to the Don, on his daughter’s wedding day. Only Trump’s about to be inaugurated President.
As the Don said, “I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn’t work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.”
And how would Trump’s inspiration, the Godfather, deal with Putin? Make him an offer he can’t refuse. As will Trump.
