I recently re-watched the whole series and couldn't help but notice the striking similarities between Brent and Trump :

• Insulting and sexist towards women
• Clearly racist but attempts to show he isn't
• Believes he's a best friend and loved by everyone
• Says everything on his mind instead of holding back inappropriate thoughts
• Constantly seeking attention and approval of others
• Huge ego with no basis in reality
• Their universe completely revolves around themselves
• No real sympathy or empathy towards others
• Very thin skinned, becomes unhinged at the slightest criticism
• Never does any ACTUAL work - wants to farm it out to the 'best' people
  Anyone else agree or notice this??
  This is such a great show, and I guess if David Brent started with a millionaire father, he'd be Prime Minister of Britain!
