People aren't watching the same screen, or at least not with the same narrator.
One narration is showing Trump being persecuted unjustly by some shady establishment with shady motives; the other is showing a shady guy and his shady cronies being investigated for a crime. The only thing the two screens have in common is that no-one but the key players know the truth.

It's not the predictions that matter, it's the explanations. Both movies could predict Trump goes to jail, but how and why he gets there would be based on completely different premises. Similarly, both could predict he gets re-elected in 2020, but would explain it as being for totally different reasons.
