To make a long satire short; The Mouse That Roared is about a small country, the Duchy of Grand Fenwick, which decides to go to war against the US with the aim to lose, and prompt the US to provide vast financial aid to rebuild the country.
Except, to their surprise, the Fenwicks sort of won the war after a series of coincidences, defeating the whole purpose of waging it in the first place.
Not so different from Trump, who launched his campaign last summer in a press conference without any means, plans, vision or the will to win the Republican nomination, let alone the presidency.
