After Trump ended his speech....the music started up.
If you aren't into opera....you were sitting there and shaking your head. The choice of music? Nessun Dorma. It's a opera-piece.
Where you heard it before? At the end of the movie....'Sum of All Fears'.
2002 movie....where the world is in chaos, and the President has been targeted....along with the head of Russia.
In the 2nd half of the movie, you figure out that various Russians and Americans have conspired to take down both governments. Our American-made James Bond (Jack Ryan, played by Ben Affleck) has figured out all the bad guys, and saved the day.
But in the final two minutes.....Nessum Dorma comes on, and every bad guy has been hunted down and terminated....quietly.
So Trump stood on the stage and allowed the 'bad guys' to have a warning about what is to happen later. He didn't say nothing....he didn't blame any group....he didn't say what suffering they might get.
Sum of All Fears? I've probably watched it ten times. It's one of those movies that sticks to you....making you skeptical of good and bad intentions.
If I were among the people who crapped upon a number of folks for the past eight years....I might start to get motivated....to quietly disappear (into Costa Rica or Belize).
Just odd....the way that this message was sent...via Nessum Dorma.
