If you haven't already seen Ava DuVernay's 13th, you should do so immediately. It's essential viewing many reasons, but it also happens to feature a pretty terrifying Trump comparison that shows exactly why the Oscar-nominated director is so critical of the president.

Not long after David Lynch wrote an open letter to Donald Trump claiming the president is causing “suffering and division” in America, Ava DuVernay weighed in on Trump on her own social media page. The “A Wrinkle in Time” filmmaker made a statement declaring Trump will “go down in history as a mistake.”

“You have no sense of self outside of the disparagement of others,” DuVernay said about Trump. “You project your weakness onto others. You are of no substance. You will go down in history as a mistake. A mistake that unified many, reminding us of the best in ourselves by being a violent example of the worst.”

DuVernay’s statement was a reaction to a tweet Trump posted criticizing Maxine Waters, the U.S. House of Representatives member from California. Waters is also known for being the most senior of the 12 black women currently serving in the United States Congress. Trump said Waters’ “crazy rants” have made her the “unhinged face” of Democrats and accused the congresswoman of “making America weak again.”
