It is a GREAT piece of internet-only content that has at least thirty strong jokes and that remains fun, engaging, and enjoyable experimental throughout. Think Cheech and Chong or Sealab 2021. It rolls along happily from bit to bit to bit at the expense of no particular policy or American ideals, just the personality of Donald Drumpf
It should not be considered a classic piece of political satire like many overeager people have claimed. It's a bit shallow and it's jokes are hit or miss. Rather, it is a great movie when you consider its context. This movie was written very quickly with that false notion that it would eventually become irrelevant. Therefore the script never got the chance to be worked on and improved over the course of say 6 months through the hands of 5-10 writers.
If you made it down here, I want to direct you to the review made by Peefyn who gives a spot on analysis of genre. This doesn't deserve to be compared to Anchorman or Blazing Saddles or Life of Brian. It is more at the level of a TV movie, just an extremely well-written and often funny one.
