Those weird sycophantic meetings where everyone takes turns praising Trump for the cameras always remind me of a classic episode of The Twilight Zone called "It's a Good Life" (s03e08). For anyone out of the loop, it's about a six-year-old kid who had god-like powers and used them to hold his small town hostage. Anyone that failed to tell him what a good boy he was and how everything he did was good and special would be "banished to the Cornfield." The similarities are disturbing.
Sounds like homelander
Who do you think that character was inspired by?
That's why I had to stop watching The Boys in one of the middle seasons. It got waaay too real with the shit going on.
Luckily, it’s gotten terrible
I've read the short story that was based on, incredibly creepy story.
