"Lonesome" Rhodes was nicer, kinder, more empathetic and had more personality than the little circle of jerks in the WH today.
FWIW, I've had a crush on Patricia Neal since watching "The Day the Earth Stood Still". "Gort, klaatu barada nikto."

Originally Klaatu's post-death resurrection at the end of the movie was meant to be permanent, reinforcing his God-like powers, but at the time the Breen Office, the film industry's censors, didn't like the ending, suggesting it was too left-wing, and insisted that director Robert Wise and writer Edmund H. North put in the line, "That power is reserved for the Almighty Spirit." Both Wise and North hated the line and thought it completely inappropriate, negating the concept of Klaatu's race being all-knowing and all-powerful, but the studio wouldn't back them up, and they were forced to put it in.
Meanwhile, back on "Lonesome" Rhodes, even though it won't change the minds of MAGAts, Trump needs a good open mike moment to reveal his true character.
