Trump is like Harvey Dent


He’s the hero we need right now, but not the one we deserve.

I always found that line confusing.

What type of hero does Jim think Gotham deserves?

reply

If memory serves, at the very end, Gordon switches the line to something like “[batman] is the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now.” Because Batman took the blame for Harvey Dent’s murder so he went into hiding.

Referring to it needing a Harvey type to lead it I suppose Filmtenk, thanks for that - it's the only part of the film which felt a little cringey to me.

I don't know why but something in me needs to see a Gothamite being something worthy of saving to have it make sense and sound less Golden Age comicbooky.
