Donald Trump blames ‘two-faced’ Justin Trudeau for being cut from Home Alone 2 in Canada

DONALD Trump has blamed Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for editing out his cameo in the Christmas classic “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York”.

The president’s brief appearance in the 1992 film sees the then-real estate mogul offer directions to Macaulay Culkin’s character as he runs through the lobby of the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan.

But when Canadian broadcaster CBC aired the film this week, Trump’s star turn was nowhere to be found.

Now Trump has blamed Trudeau for cutting him from the version that aired in Canada.

He tweeted: “I guess Justin T doesn’t much like my making him pay up on NATO or Trade!”

“The movie will never be the same! (just kidding).”

While the president appeared to add he was just joking, some of his supporters were furious.

One said: “I bet ‘two faced’ Trudeau made the call directly to the @CBC and demanded they cut the scene… or maybe just black it out #DefundCBC.”

Trump called Trudeau “two-faced” after the prime minister was caught on video making fun of him to other world leaders earlier this month at the NATO summit in London.

However, the reason for his absence does not seem to be anything sinister, with time constraints the culprit for the cutting.

“As is often the case with features adapted for television, Home Alone 2 was edited to allow for commercial time within the format,” CBC told ComicBook.com.

The New York Post reports Trump’s cameo being cut from the film could have taken place as far back as December 2015.

Despite that, the news may not go over well with Trump, who celebrated his cameo during a call with troops on Christmas Eve.

“Well I’m in Home Alone 2,” Trump said.

“A lot of people mention it every year, especially around Christmas. They say – especially young kids – they say, ‘I just saw you on the movie.’ They don’t see me on television as they do in the movie.

“But it’s been a good movie and I was a little younger, to put it mildly. And it was an honor to do it.”

The president continued: “And it turned out to be a very big hit, obviously. It’s a big Christmas hit – one of the biggest.

“So it’s an honor to be involved in something like that, you always like to see success.”
