I assume King has dementia as he forgets what he wrote. Just posting this because I keep seeing this stupid video constantly posted on leftist sites. Trump is not Stillson, Hillary is, Trump PREVENTED Stillson. BTW for those who have no idea what he is talking about, years ago King wrote a book called "The Dead zone" about a guy who after coming out of a coma could predict someones future by shaking their hand, and he shakes the hand of this political candidate Greg Stillson and he foresees that Stillson is another war mongering Hitler type who brings about nuclear armageddon. So now these lefties are putting King on a pedestal as this modern day soothsayer "OMG he was exactly right about Trump" even though Trump resembles NOTHING about what Stillson is.

That was a pretty good movie. First time I ever saw Christopher Walken.
But Trump is no Martin Sheen.

He does have brain damage from getting hit by a van years back.

What’s crazy about this is one of the main themes of this book and movie is “If you could go back in time before Hitler came into power would you kill him?” and here is King basically giving wackos the go ahead to compare Trump to Hitler. This guy is an utter piece of sh*t

Sorry, essayist Dr. Sam Francis predicted the rise of a Trump like person back in 1992 when he was helping Pat Buchanan’s presidential campaign.

And he predicted every Dem president ever in The Stand with Randall Flagg.

That old fossil - who on earth even finds him interesting to talk to or listen to today? I shouldn’t say that as I’m lots older than he is but I don’t consider my ramblings worth anyone’s time.
I remember Cujo, The Shining and that thing that took place in the desert (The Stand?) but after that, he held no interest for me.

Stephen King is an angry, bitter Never Trumper......

To: GrandJediMasterYoda
King was probably coked out his mind at the time. He doesnt remember a lot of the stuff he wrote back then (he mentions a few times that he doesn’t even remember directing maximum overdrive....though thats probably for the best)
Obviously Stillson was more Clinton than Trump seeing as Clinton was openly running on starting a war with the second largest nuclear power on the planet.
To: GrandJediMasterYoda
Stephen King is a hack writer who churns out pap in such volume and at such high speed, something of his is occasionally bound to stick to the wall. Having said that, what does stick to the wall is generally enjoyable, albeit usually with some out-of-place twist or MacGuffin that really doesn't shoe-horn itself into the overall narrative too well. That is probably why Hollyweird writers who try to adapt his stories to films can't quite drag the horse across the finish line satisfactorily. At his best, King's writing is 85% attention grabbing and 15% 'WTF?'.

At the time, I thought Stillson was very much like Bill Clinton. He was nothing like President Trump, quite the opposite.

King does not know History
Stillson is clearly a Democrat.
In the Movie Stillson wants to start a Nuclear War
Real History
Over 98% of all American Combat Deaths are from Democrat War.

Stillson wasn’t a Hitler-type. He was a weak leader who eventually had to resort to nuclear weapons.
A study was done decades ago through the DoD. They set out to determine the results of strong leadership vs weak leadership. Generally, they ran wartime scenarios for conservative and liberal teams. The liberal teams always had to go nuclear first. Why? They didn’t deal with problems when they were manageable so they eventually painted themselves into a corner.
