“Vindicating Trump,” a new film by Dinesh D’Souza, explores the hypotheticals of election manipulation and threats to democratic integrity.
Just The News reported that the documentary “Vindicating Trump,” created by conservative filmmaker and author Dinesh D’Souza, opened in approximately 850 theaters nationwide last Friday.
The film presents a series of scenarios depicting potential electoral fraud, including ballot duplication and voter impersonation, framing these as significant threats to democracy.
One of the initial scenes in the film showcases investigators demonstrating how to easily duplicate ballots.
This demonstration includes a staged phone call to a voting registration office, where the legality of duplicating mail-in ballots is confirmed.
Real-World Context Behind the Theatrics
The film’s narrative suggests potential methods through which elections could be undermined, featuring a purchase of one million registered voters’ names for $35 to forge signatures on ballots. This dramatic depiction raises questions about the ease of committing electoral fraud.
Previously, D’Souza released “2,000 Mules,” a documentary that made unfounded allegations of ballot stuffing by Democratic operatives during the 2020 election.
Mainstream media and government officials widely dismissed these claims, and the film’s distribution was eventually halted by the Salem Media Group, Inc. in May.
In “Vindicating Trump,” D’Souza evolves his narrative to suggest that Democrats could attempt future election fraud but would need to change tactics to avoid detection. He emphasizes the need to anticipate and prevent such strategies.
The film also controversially includes a hypothetical assassination plot against former President Donald Trump, depicted by an actor portraying an intelligence agent. This was filmed before an actual assassination attempt on Trump, which occurred on July 13, where he was shot in the ear at a rally.
Throughout the documentary, various agencies and media outlets are portrayed as colluding to prevent Trump’s presidency, contributing to a narrative of conspiracy and manipulation.
Trump himself appears in an interview in the film, conducted about 10 days after the assassination attempt.
This interview is used to delve into his perceptions of political and personal threats.
Historical and Political Context in Filmmaking
The film begins with historical footage of Trump mingling with celebrities, which transitions into a discussion of his political transformation post-announcing his presidential run as a Republican in 2015. D’Souza narrates allegations made by Democrats who labeled Trump a Russian spy and traitor, intensifying the political drama.
Additionally, the film features notable public figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Mark Zuckerberg. Kennedy criticizes President Biden on CNN, while Zuckerberg comments on Trump’s resilience following the assassination attempt.
D’Souza’s approach to the documentary, as he explains, is not just to relay facts through interviews and footage but to weave an emotional storyline that engages the viewer on a deeper level.
One of the more striking quotes in the film comes from D’Souza during the ballot duplication demonstration: “We told our investigators, ‘Don’t just tell us you can make ballots, go make ballots. Prove to us these are ballots that can be cast without being detected.’ And they did. It’s mind-blowing, to be honest.”
D’Souza also discusses the anticipated tactics of electoral cheating: “The premise is that Democrats are expected to cheat, but they can’t do so in the same way as before because people will be looking for it. We have to think like the criminals. We’re not saying it happened, we’re saying it could. My purpose for exposing it is to make it more difficult.”
His description of the interview with Trump highlights an intent to reveal a more personal side of the former president: “I ask Trump somewhat unexpected questions because I want to see the tumblers of his mind work, and give the audience a window into his soul.”
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s critique of Biden as a threat to democracy and Zuckerberg’s admiration of Trump’s post-assassination attempt defiance add layers to the political discourse presented in the film.
The film “Vindicating Trump” thus serves as a provocative exploration of potential threats to electoral integrity, merging hypothetical scenarios with real-life events and commentary to engage audiences in a discussion about the future of American democracy.
