The Final Year, 2017 - ★★★

There are a few moments when it feels like this has been edited to contrast more with Trump and there really didn't seem to be any need to do that. The material and contrast is strong enough without having it forced. There's a sadness about looking back on a more sane time but also a surprising amount of hope. The thing I took away was how presidential Obama was and not just compared to Trump, but also the Bushes and Bill Clinton. For younger people (like the kids of Parkland) it is all they'll really know and therefore not surprising that they want change.
