Sacha Baron Cohen’s targeted comedy sequel joins a host of urgent documentaries and TV shows released weeks before the US heads to the polls

Even with the United States on red alert for pandemic containment, a pernicious phrase has been creeping into the public lexicon at an unprecedented rate of spread. We’ve been beset by a plague known as “the film we need right now”, a noxious concept used to justify and amplify the profiles of nearly a dozen releases over the past year.

If lies on buses can, then why not entertainment?

ICYMI:

Yes. And in this case it should.

regelegorila J’ai pensé à toi pour Borat 😂

I think he got that mask thing from Chelsea Handler... she wore it better. 😏

'can entertainment really affect an election?' That depends on the intelligence of the voters... ...So, yes!

'You're fired!'

Course it can. See: Boris on HIGNFY, Boris hanging off a wire, Boris playing rugby. Trump on Apprentice. These guys are only there because entertainment.

Will be the best Borat movie ever. I ask myself, will he do a Charlie Chaplin ending? Would be a little over the top, but it would fit...

The short answer is yes and the long answer is hell to the yeah

Is Sacha Baron Cohen Trump supporter?

This ' election ' is a total ' balls up ' . The Borat promo is the only bright spot. And considering he is a Jew the bare clothing line should be a great seller on the ' racks '.

I mean we have a reality tv star as a president - kind of poetic justice that reality tv gets back :p

Neither the lying scum media, Hollyweird or big tech is going to get JoeBiden elected & that should be a relief to everyone. Unfortunately some people are to dim to see what's going on.

Manipulation

It's not really just entertainment if one of its purposes is to sway the election.

It can certainly make an entertainer President. We've done it, twice.

Ummmmmm...we have a 🤡 in Office so.

Sure, Don is (was) literally a TV star.
