Despite trudging through a ninth year in which the media claim to deplore President Donald Trump, this ninth year continues to prove the press still cannot get enough of him. And it’s not just the politicos in Washington covering his third consecutive presidential campaign or the paparazzi in Manhattan documenting the Republican’s first criminal trial.

Over in France, the entertainment tabloids have boasted that The Apprentice, a biopic of Trump’s early entrepreneurial career and collaboration with the late Roy Cohn, scored an eight-minute long standing ovation after its Cannes Film Festival debut. The Hollywood Reporter lauded Sebastian Stan, who plays the billionaire as a rising star real estate mogul, as “excellent” even if Trump haters consider him “a touch too likable” and “more nuanced” than contemporary parodies.
