Exactly. Trumpsters are too stupid to understand irony and sarcasm.. and to busy ranting about CRT
I've noticed you have a bad OCD. You interject Trump into everything and nowhere did the producers or cast say Trump figured into anything. In fact, Streep could have been many presidents we've had who promise everything and deliver little. Did you not see the movie?? They went after just about everyone from liberal Hollywood, the media, politicians, Big Tech... and yes the general public. I bet you didn't see it, or read the crappy reviews!
LOL. So it seems that YOU didn’t even watch the movie.
Streep was Trump with dash of Palin. The “don’t look up” hats, the dumb a$$ supporters chanting at a rally, the idiot son, etc.
No it wasn't, LOL! Ok provide a link then!
Here’s the link.
https://www.netflix.com/us/title/81252357
Watch it.
Or if you don’t have the brain power for that:
https://www.newsweek.com/meryl-streep-president-dont-look-donald-trump-1657364?amp=1
LOL That is a Newsweek opinion! You can pull up all kinds of reviews, but the actual source (writers, producers, actors) never stated that in anyway.
Other reviews said it could be a mix of Clinton, Trump, etc. It's all projection.
Tell me you didn’t watch it without telling me you didn’t watch it.
DP. Did *you* watch it? Miss the shot of the president hugging Bill Clinton in a photo?

DP. I’m not getting all these “MAGA” insults. Are you really this blind to the skewering of Democrats that was going on, too? The whole, “let’s get past midterms first!” It definitely wasn’t all satire of the right.
The politicians in the movie were MAGA.
It smacked Republicans around a bit more, but it didn't spare the democrats.

Not at all.

I guess if you call the media "Democrats"?
The only politicians (and supporters) shown were clearly Rs.

We voted for Trump, and watched the movie last night. It was hilarious, if a little preachy. I loved Jonah Hill's smarmy character and his interactions with his mom/boss/CinC. I mean, it's funny in part because some of it rings true. (Now, I never thought of covid as being a world destroying, apocalyptic situation so I thought that was over the time, but the basic premise of internal politics overshadowing our actual, pressing concerns-- dead on.)

Interview with creator:
https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2021/12/dont-look-up-adam-mckay-netflix-movie/621104/
Wrote it before the pandemic and then - after seeing the crazy response to the pandemic - had to go back to make it even MORE absurd to match reality.
“ McKay intended the film as a climate-change parable, about how society chooses to ignore impending danger. But after he wrote the script and had begun pre-production, he watched with astonishment as a different apocalyptic scenario played out toward similar ends. “We basically went home … and sat on our hands for six months with the rest of the world,” McKay recalled of early 2020. “The entire time I’m getting emails and texts from our crew, from our cast, saying, ‘Oh my God, did you see there’s a tax break for millionaires in the COVID package?’ That’s a beat in the [Don’t Look Up] script. ‘Oh my God, did you see there’s people denying COVID exists?’ At one point I’m like, we don’t make the movie. It happened! We’re too late!” When he returned to the script, he had to make it “20 percent crazier, because reality had played out crazier than the script.”
One “stranger than fiction” moment that particularly struck McKay was when then-President Donald Trump floated the idea of injecting bleach to kill the coronavirus. “Nothing I had in the script was that crazy,” McKay said. “So I added more comet denial … ’cause we were seeing that kind of stuff happening … In the edit room, we had to do this weird straddling of reality versus bonkers.” “

Great he was a good sport about it.
The MAGAs in our family would have gotten all grumpy and complained that it was a terrible movie.
The MAGAs in my family wouldn’t get it but they would hate it anyway
While you’re so busy gaffing about Trumpers the rest of us caught the bumbling Biden aka Peter Isherwell of Bash. Brilliantly played.
That wasn’t Biden doofus. It was an amalgamation of Elon Musk/Bezos/Bill Gates. You know… billionaire tech dudes.
With a bit of Steve Jobs
I thought it was Mark Zuckerberg.

Yes, we love to laugh at how absurd you are.
DP. It’s interesting that you seem oblivious to the fact that much of the satire was directed at the left. Were you aware? The whole social media idiocy, the obsession over some pop star’s relationship with a rapper, the wacko social media mogul… plenty of absurdity to laugh at there.

Loved the casting in this movie. And Jennifer Lawrence’s l obsession with the general who charged them for snacks was genius.

Those were the parts I truly laughed out loud. Too funny.
