Toilet Paper

Imagine a movie pitch made in 1995.  

OK- so- Donald Trump becomes president... and then there's a pandemic that started in China (ok- so- the part about a pandemic starting in China has since been done) and then- it sweeps the world... and- there's no toilet paper. Anywhere.  None.  Nobody can find toilet paper. People are yelling at each other in grocery stores- fighting over the stuff.  

The hospitals tell doctors and staff that they are not permitted to wear masks to avoid spreading panic.  So- ok, there's no toilet paper, there's a pandemic, Trump is president, and hospital staff is not allowed to wear masks.  So THEN we all HAVE to wear masks except there aren't enough so we have to reuse the same single use mask over and over and over again- but- so- get this- the masks are kept completely sanitized because they are stored in paper bags.  So- each hospital staff member gets one mask and one paper bag- and- the hospital says that the masks are appropriately sanitized- as long as the the back of the mask is pointed towards the front of the paper bag and the front of the mask is pointed towards the back of the paper bags.  So the bags are magic- right?  So- then- people get sick because the magic paper bags aren't working.  

So- the hospitals are all full and there's no PPE, no toilet paper, everyone's dying, the magic bags aren't working, hospital staff is sick, hospitals are packed to the gills... but- a twist.  A whole bunch of people insist that this is not happening!  Get this- they say- there's no virus it is all caused by this guy Fauci.  Yeah yeah the AIDS guy - so- in the movie- he's still practicing.  

So then- somehow we get through this pandemic- lots of people die yada yada yada... then- there's a presidential election but- Donald Trump refuses to acknowledge the fact that he lost so- a bunch of people storm the capitol! But- he's not the president- it is a kindly old man with a vicious dog The kindly old guy is president for 4 years- despite the fact that Donald Trump has managed to convince people that nobody tried to overthrow the government and that he won the election. 

So- the old guy doesn't run for a second term but... get this... Donald Trump gets to be president again- and- he said that there is no resurrection and nobody stormed the capitol and that everyone who did this is being pardoned.  Yeah yeah- I know- that's confusing we'll work it out in the script.  So- then.... there's this guy who gets access to a whole bunch of Medicaid/ Medicare data.  Oh, who's the guy?  He was born in South Africa and says he invented electric cars!  

Wait- what do you mean not realistic?
