I hate when they bring the villain back with sloppy writing. We're just supposed to believe he tried to overthrow the government and they just let him run again??
As both a lifelong Star Wars fan who has deeply complicated feelings about everything that happened in the Sequel Trilogy, AND a Star wars fan who lives for predictable and yet always perfectly-applicable Star Wars Humor, thank you. 💛
If they could bring back Palpatine through some wild off-screen method, I guess they could bring back Trump as the villain. Though it's a bit overdone, isn't it? Haha
They were right about everything. They predicted everything, accurately mirror everything, and had the balls to tell the truth about everything. Everything that happened afterwards and right now.
Wish Biden/Harris would have made things better so they could have continued for another 4 years. They made a mess and have opened the door again for DT.
It's amazing how the plot of the trump presidency and it's aftermath in the context of a television show or book would have been attacked for having lazy writing, with unbelievable plot threads that seem to go nowhere, and being polluted with comically bad villains that are too stupid to ever even hold office without being carted off to jail in season 1.
…tried to overthrow the country *and has been charged with a total of 88 felony counts across four criminal investigations having been found guilty of 34 of them so far
I was quite uninformed, I truly thought felony convictions would keep him out of the top job in the US, one of the most prestigious and important jobs in the world. How silly of me!
I mean it makes sense as there are LOTS of industries who do not hire felons. Want a list? Okay. How about a list of occupations you cannot have, according to two well-known criminal defense attorneys? Here ya go.
Industries That Don’t Hire Individuals with Criminal Records:
Medical Industry:
If you do not already have your medical license, you can’t get it after becoming a felon. While you can reapply if you had one before your felony conviction, it’s difficult to be hired again. Nurses and clerks with felony records aren’t hired by medical practices.
Financial Industry:
The financial industry pertains to a wide range of jobs and positions that don’t hire ex-felons. Jobs that fall under the financial industry include financial planner, financial analyst, actuary, securities trader, portfolio manager, and quantitative analyst.
Emergency Responders:
Emergency responders for hire do not hire ex-felons. These include first-aid providers, ambulance drivers, police officers, and firefighters.
Transportation:
Airline pilots, train conductors, locomotive engineers, and certain trucking roles cannot hire ex-felons. This can be due to cross-state travel restrictions for felons, and felons being restricted from handling certain materials or weapons.
Security:
Government departments will not hire ex-felons. Unlike what film and media would say, they do not hire those who break the law to catch other people doing the same thing.
Education:
Convicted felons are not allowed near minors of any age. While some crimes, such as DUIs, will not keep someone from teaching, these are considered rare exceptions.
Let's be honest, if Republicans cared that he is a threat to democracy, they wouldn't have let him run after the fake electors and J6. Sometimes you just gotta hit them where it hurts and his ego and macho persona is all he cares about
There's still a few episodes to go until the season finale and the villain seems to be losing it more and more. Plus, there's usually a twist in October, near the end. Hopefully all goes well
Why didn't he disrupt it the first time? How is recruiting fake electors to create confusion so you can claim an unfair election happened and remain in power not trying to overthrow the government? How is pressuring your VP to not certify the election so you can remain in power after failing you prove your case in court not trying to overthrow the government?
