  • A documentary filmmaker gave special access to the Trump family.

  • Trump's and his adult children are similar to a real life succession drama.

  • "It's kind of got this, like, 'Succession'-type vibe,'" he said.

A British documentary filmmaker who was granted exclusive access to the Trump family ahead of the Capitol riot weighed in on the relationships between Trump and his children.

Alex said that the family agreed to be filmed because they were very confident that they would win the election.

The pitch was that he wanted to understand who the family was. They had complained about the coverage in the US.

They were complaining about the media. He said that they should try and understand who they are.

The relationship between Trump and his children is similar to the one between the Roy family and the show "Succession."

The interactions they have with each other, and the interaction they have with their father, are what I'm talking about.

The project has a 'Succession'-type vibe. It is a real life succession drama.

According to his interactions with the former president, he thought Trump was delusional. He said that he thought Trump was dangerous because he never accepts blame and is always right.

Donald Trump is not smart. He just isn't. It's not possible to have a conversation with him in the same way that you can have a conversation with most other people. He is a different kind of person.

The representatives at the post-presidential press office didn't reply to the request.

The footage was subpoenaed by the committee investigating the Capitol riot.

Interviews with Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and former Vice President Mike Pence are included in the trailer.
