President Donald Trump made headlines earlier this year (when does he not?) after he announced a new slogan for his 2020 reelection campaign: Keep America Great. This was significant besides Trump getting way ahead of himself because that was the tagline of the 2016 American dystopian horror movie, The Purge: Election Year.

Now, the White House has yet another connection to that movie as Jared Kushner just hired the publicist behind The Purge films , Josh Raffel.

Since 2015, Raffel led communications for Blumhouse Productions , the production company behind The Purge: Election Year, as well as other scary movies such as the Paranormal Activity series, Split and Get Out. The company was also behind Damien Chazelles 2014 movie Whiplash , which earned five Oscar nominations and won in three categories.
