Donald Trump Reacts to Being Removed from 'Home Alone 2' in Canada
Long before he was the President of the United States, Donald Trump was just a rich guy in New York City who made a cameo appearance in the movie Home Alone 2.
Now, that cameo scene has been cut out of the movie’s broadcast on a Canadian television channel.
The president’s son Donald Trump Jr. shared the story on Twitter and called the move “pathetic” and then the president himself reacted to the news later in the day.
“I guess Justin [Trudeau] doesn’t much like my making him pay up on NATO or Trade!” he first tweeted. He then wrote, “The movie will never be the same! (just kidding).”
An exec for CBC has said that the movie was “edited for time” and has been airing this way since 2014.

As many are asking…
CBC’s airing of Home Alone 2 was edited for time. This happens regularly with films adapted for television. 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.— Chuck Thompson (@ChuckTCBC) December 26, 2019
