I don’t recommend doing this

actually had no idea this show even existed until I saw it on Netflix and put it on out of morbid curiosity and self-punishment and needless to say, it’s not good

why did they think a rehash of the most boring events of 2016 would make for a compelling TV drama? they’re trying to go for the tone of House of Cards (they even got that one guy!) but it feels more like a bad soap opera

like, I shit you not, there’s literally a shot of two Russians, vodka flasks in hand, toasting to rigging the US election

also Michael Flynn meets Putin and Putin’s all “I can’t wait to have you at my dinner, you’re gonna be seated next to Jill Stein” lmao

I just got to the election results so I’m looking forward to seeing Brendan Gleeson in grotesque Trump prosthetics

    btw there was only one brief shot of Robert Mueller so far but he came across like a huge asshole so that was pretty funny

    also the guy playing Obama does a good vocal impression but looks about 20 years too young for the part

    hey does anybody remember when a gaggle of deeply pathetic libs read too deeply into a james comey tweet where he posted a pic of running shoes after his time in the limelight was over and they were creaming over the prospect that he was obviously announcing a presidential “run”!!!
