Reports circulating on Twitter both praised and condemned the network for apparently removing Trump’s scene from the 1992 movie. Trump’s cameo has become a well-known part of the movie, and shows former child actor Macaulay Culkin asking the now-American president for directions inside New York’s Plaza Hotel.
CBC denied that the omission had anything to do with politics in a statement to the Daily Caller. The broadcasting corporation added that it first edited the movie in 2014, before Trump was president.
Below, a so-so deepfake video inserting Sylvester Stallone (sort of) into Home Alone. Strangely, the video only does scenes from before Kevin McAllister's Rambo-like home defense. Seems like they really should have used scenes of the kid springing Rambo-type traps on bad guys.
