It might be one of those times when Donald Trump really is a little bit tired of winning.
Trump earned a handful of nominations for the 2019 Razzie Awards, which recognize the worst in film each year and managed to pull out a win in the category of Worse Actor, HuffPost reports.
The Golden Raspberry Awards, or Razzies, annually honor the worst performances and films for the year. The award was created by UCLA film graduates and film industry veterans John Wilson and Mo Murphy and has been running yearly since its debut in 1981.
Trump found himself on the list thanks to a couple of documentary appearances, namely Death of a Nation and Fahrenheit 11/9 , two films which are very different politically.
Death of a Nation was created by conservative political commentator Dinesh D’Souza and Fahrenheit 11/9 by the much more left-leaning Michael Moore. Both films feature footage of the president, which qualified Trump for Razzie recognition, even as he simply represented himself.
In addition to a win for Worst Actor, Trump was also won for Worst Screen Combo with a tongue-in-cheek recognition for Trump and “his self-perpetuating pettiness,” according to the award announcement.
Others in Trump’s circle that were recognized include Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway, who won Worst Supporting Actress for her appearance in Fahrenheit 11/9 and Melania Trump, who was also nominated for the same category for her appearance in that film.
