And it would be scary accurate.

Trump will never accept any blame. His narcissism demands that he pass the buck and it seems like the greedy, spineless, soulless and idiotic 'Cons are running scared of him.

Though the humor is sometimes tempered because it is too close to our current reality.

I caught a few episodes way back when it was on PBS, then watched the first season on one of the streaming channels (Acorn TV or Britbox, not sure which). I should start watching it again.
