I’m sure one of the Wormtongues is right next to Donnie “Fear not, Sire! They boo because this is the new standing ovation. Sit back and enjoy the adulation. And - behold! - a sack full of Big Macs that you may consume to celebrate this. And a peasant has to tied to a pillar for you to beat …”

Hey, isn’t the goblin in the white hat actually Mike Teavee from Willy Wonka. All grown up and just as violently withdrawn away from reality (always) and living his life - as he did as a child - the star of an old time television show with bad guys and guns and things that crash into other things?

Can’t forget- during his first reign of terror - when he tried to hand a six-pack of paper towels to the driver of a pickup truck - instead of placing them in the truck bed - because he probably never knew how to load a pickup truck. And this is the same man who described himself as a stable genius?
