Home Alone Trump

Obviously, Donald Trump has tweeted about his removal from the movie.

Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC) removed Donald Trump’s cameo from Home Alone 2, with Trump’s son referring to the move as “pathetic”.

CBC says it removed Trump’s brief cameo in 2014 to make room for advertisements, but neither the President nor his son are buying it…

Donald Junior tweeted to say that the cameo being removed was “pathetic”, while Trump himself is surprisingly seeing the brighter side of things:

We reckon Trump is raging really…

In Home Alone 2, Trump appears on screen for a few seconds, telling Kevin McAllister (who was lost in New York at the time) that the hotel lobby is “down the hall and to the left”.

We’re sure you’ve seen the clip, but here it is just in case you’re not familiar:

A spokesperson for CBC said: “The scene with Donald Trump was one of several that were cut from the movie as none of them were integral to the plot. These edits were done in 2014, when we first acquired the film and before Mr Trump was elected president.”

As Trump says, it will never be the same…
