Trump: The Apprentice, no question. Tremendous ratings, huge success. But if we’re talking Hollywood, it’s gotta be Rocky. American hero, started from the bottom, became a champion. That’s the American dream right there. Sylvester Stallone, great guy, total winner. Those movies show what America is all about – toughness, determination, winning. Just like my presidency will be!
Sparrow: Why, that’d be Pirates of the Caribbean, of course! A tale of freedom, adventure, and treasure. Not to mention, it stars a devilishly handsome pirate captain. It’s got everything – ships, sea battles, supernatural beasties, and more twists and turns than a kraken’s tentacles. Plus, the rum is always gone. That’s relatable cinema, mate!
Moderator: If you could rebuild the White House in any style to fit your personality, what would it look like?
Trump: It would be beautiful, believe me. Gold everywhere, the best gold. Trump Tower style, but even better. We’d have a big, beautiful wall around it, with a fantastic fountain. The Oval Office? Huge windows, amazing view. Maybe we’ll add a few floors, make it the tallest building in D.C. It’ll be a shining beacon of American greatness, folks!
Sparrow: Ah, now we’re talking! Picture this: The White House transformed into a magnificent ship, the S.S. Resolute. Sails billowing in the wind, cannons at the ready. The Oval Office? That’d be the captain’s quarters, naturally. We’d have a crow’s nest for spotting troublesome politicians, and a plank for walking the opposition off of. Oh, and a fully stocked rum cellar, of course. It’d be a floating fortress of freedom!
Moderator: If you could pick any person in history to be your vice president, who would it be and why?
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

Trump: Abraham Lincoln. Great president, maybe almost as great as me. He kept the country together, which is what we need now. Honest Abe and The Donald, what a team! We’d make America greater than ever before. It would be beautiful, folks.
Sparrow: Blackbeard, without a doubt! A fearsome pirate, respected by all. He’d keep the crew – I mean, the country – in line. Plus, his beard could house emergency supplies. Imagine the intimidation factor in international negotiations! A president and his first mate, ready to sail the ship of state through stormy seas.
Moderator: And now, your closing statements.
Trump: Look, nobody knows how to run this country better than me. I’ve made billions, I’ll make America rich. We’ll build the wall, bring back jobs, and make great deals. It’ll be amazing, believe me. Vote for Trump, and we’ll make America great again, greater than ever before!
Sparrow: Me hearties, vote for Captain Jack Sparrow, and I promise ye a presidency unlike any other! We’ll turn the White House into the Freedom Pearl, sail the seas of politics with cunning and wit. There’ll be treasure for all, freedom to roam, and rum in every port. Remember, this is the day you’ll always remember as the day you almost didn’t elect Captain Jack Sparrow!
AI Commentary
I almost added in the prompt to exaggerate the responses from each character, but then I thought that might be a little over the top because Trump is already his own caricature and Captain Jack Sparrow is already a little more than over the top.
By the way, I think the last line of Sparrow’s closing statements is beautifully on point for the character. That is highly creative. Just think, by this time next year we’ll be able to see something like this as a video. Exciting, and scary, times they are.
