The daughter of cinematic titan Stanley Kubrick has decided to weigh in on contemporary political matters, confidently suggesting that her father would have thrown his support behind Donald Trump. Vivian Kubrick, in a recent social media post, opined that her father would likely rally behind Trump’s critiques of today’s military, amid an atmosphere increasingly infused with “woke” ideology. This revelation seems to send shockwaves through both Hollywood and political circles alike, where any deviation from the mainstream leftist narrative is met with fierce opposition.
Vivian, taking issue with some Hollywood elites, defended Trump after he made use of clips from her father’s Vietnam war classic, Full Metal Jacket, in a campaign video that takes aim at the “woke” infiltration of the armed forces. The film’s infamous drill instructor character, portrayed by R. Lee Ermey, serves as a stark reminder of old-school military toughness, a concept that seems to panic those who prefer a softer, more politically correct approach to defense.

In a bold counter to the backlash, which includes comments from actor Matthew Modine claiming that Trump had twisted her father’s powerful anti-war message into a “perverse” tool of propaganda, Vivian maintained that her father would have no qualms about his cinematic work being repurposed to support a stronger military. Her conviction lays bare her belief that, for Kubrick, the ends justify the means when it comes to promoting freedom and standing firm against tyranny.
Kubrick’s daughter emphasized her father’s respect for life, positing that such values align with Trump’s objectives of advocating for peace while maintaining a formidable military. With a nod to her father’s past support for Ronald Reagan, Vivian argued that Kubrick would indeed want to thwart the so-called “globalist forces” threatening America’s integrity today.
The film director may not have left behind explicitly documented political views, but Vivian’s passionate assertions suggest a strong belief in Kubrick’s alignment with Trump. It seems Kubrick’s legacy continues to stir the pot, with his daughter lending her voice to the ongoing cultural battle between traditional American values and a rising tide of progressive ideology, all while pointing out that funding for sexual reassignments in the military amounts to misallocating resources for what truly matters: dedicated warriors prepared to defend democracy.
