The ACTOR who should play MAGAt MOSES MIKEY in the inevitable Oliver Stone-ish Trump administration movie?

I'm guessing the movie won't get made until after Grampy heads off for his dirt nap, being as litigious as Trump is, but you KNOW there's some kind of Oliver Stone director out there straining at the bit to make this movie, and MAGAt actors like James Woods, Jon Voight, Dean Cain and Kevin Sorbo are all daydreaming about what role they'd land.

But what about MAGAt Moses Mike? WHAT ACTOR could play him accurately, with the smirk and creepy arrogance?

Maybe it's a Sean Spicer deal...Melissa McCarthy played him perfectly on SNL, which probably was a factor in his being shown the door. Maybe an ACTRESS needs to play Mikey.

Anyway...let's hear what YOU think.

I don't think we will EVER see an honest, accurate movie about Trump.

I cited Stone only in that he'd most likely do the sane-washing conspiracy theory thing.

The writer and director you want is Adam McKay, who did the films “The Big Short” and “Vice” (about Dick Cheney).

For Mike Johnson, I would suggest John Higgins of SNL/Please Don’t Destroy

...and he's doing it to perfection.

"Christoph Waltz is a new recurring cast member in the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building, where he plays a tech mogul named Bash Steed. His character is a "longevity enthusiast" whose sudden interest in the Arconia raises suspicion among the main characters, and his portrayal is partly inspired by real-life billionaires, says the show's creator. "

(that was from a Google search result so I don't have a link for you, but we watch the show, and yeah...he's "doing Musk." )
