(Hollywood, CA) As the fight for Warner Brothers Pictures continues, Netflix has increased its offer not with an increase in share price, but by stating the bid would include a $10 million settlement with Donald Trump, the current US President. When asked why a settlement would be appropriate, CEO Greg Peters said, “President Trump is too tough on filthy liberals, and this is meant as an insult. The settlement will be for that statement.”

The White House sounded pleased with the announcement, with Trump blessing the deal, saying $10 million sounded appropriate for the insult. “I can take that in a donation if you want a tax write off,” Trump said in remarks at a golf luncheon. “I approve the deal on behalf of Warner Brothers.” He appeared unaware he did not have the power to do so.

Employees at Warner Brothers say the confusion isn’t helpful. Leo Sturbgetter, an Animaniac detangler at the Hollywood lot, said: “I voted for the president, but he should leave this to the big shots. Sure, they respect his ability to stay in command when people hate him, his misuse of power, his arrogant attitude, his ability to exploit, abuse, and allegedly cause the disappearance of underage women… his ability to lose money on a sure thing, his insistence on being right, and a lot of his racism… but maybe he should let movie deals be handled by the pros.”
