President Trump Accidentally Quotes Batman's Bane in Inauguration Speech
With many Democrats already portraying Trump as a villain, they are having a field day after Trump echoed the line from 'The Dark Knight Rises' where Bane address the citizens of Gotham, saying he's giving them the city back from the rich and corrupt. A message that certainly wasn't much different from Trump's during his speech. "Today, we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another or from one party to another, but we are transferring power from Washington, DC and giving it back to you, the people," said Trump. Bane's line in the movie was: "We take Gotham from the corrupt. The rich, the oppressors of generations who have kept you down with myths of opportunity, and we give it back to you, the people." President Donald Trump appeared to accidentally quote Batman villain Bane in his inauguration speech.
