The Art of the Parody

Published February 11, 2016 4:20pm ET



It was only a matter of time before Hollywood went after Donald Trump, and just in time for his yuuge win in New Hampshire, Funny or Die brings us Donald Trump’s The Art of the Deal: The Movie.

The 50-minute parody is premised as a film written by, directed by, and starring Donald J. Trump, based on his best-selling book. The film, we’re told by director Ron Howard, never aired because of Monday Night Football. Howard says the Browns and Colts, erroneously, played a terrible game where scoring comprised only of safeties and preempted Trump’s film. Because of this, Trump supposedly refused to air the TV movie and it was wrestled by Howard from an old woman at a garage sale.
