Armando Iannucci, the Scottish writer and producer behind the hit HBO series "Veep," is working on a project that takes on President Donald Trump — but there's a snag, Deadline reported on Tuesday: potential backers of the project fear becoming targets of MAGA hate. Iannucci confessed as much at a Creative U.K. event in Liverpool, the article stated, as he "revealed that he was developing a screen project based on Trump’s speeches, but was warned that he would not be able to pull together finance in America." “I got a lot of, ‘Yeah, you wouldn’t get the money for that at the moment, I’m afraid.’ So I said, ‘Why not?’ [They replied] ‘Well, you know, if you want what comes with it…'” said Iannucci. Beyond that, Trump supporters have pushed for boycotts of any company that is not just perceived as anti-Trump, but also too culturally liberal, famously spooking Bud Light's parent company with a huge loss of sales over their partnership with a transgender influencer. Far-right legal strategist Leonard Leo reportedly had a hand in driving the action, although in recent months Trump has fallen out with Leo.
