What's even more pathetic to me is the notion that him seeing communist tanks in another country 50 years ago (allowing your worst case scenario that fiction becomes reality in the minds of 99% of the audience that night) would somehow be relevant or impugn a man running for presidency today (who also happens to have a history of fighting communists).
