In the 2019 holiday season, conservative social media began buzzing about the omission of a scene in a Canadian Broadcast Company cut of the 1992 film Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. The scene features Trump in the Plaza Hotel to give directions to the lead character. After outcry, the CBC revealed that the film had had several scenes cut for time, and that the edit in question had been used in broadcasts since 2014.

Trump joked the controversy, tweeting, “I guess Justin T doesn’t much like my making him pay up on NATO or Trade!” and “The movie will never be the same! (just kidding)”.
