After an eight-year break, our moral, ethical, and intellectual betters in the entertainment industry are getting back to one of their favorite themes: fantasies about Republican presidents getting dead.

Back in 2006, a mockumentary called Death of a President depicted the assassination of George W. Bush. A couple of years before that, a novel called Checkpoint by Nicholson Baker consisted of conversations between two characters as they decide whether to assassinate Bush. Hell, even comic books got into the act. In a 2007 series called Black Summer, a near-omnipotent superhero named John Horus saves the world by — you guessed it — assassinating George Bush.

That’s because liberals are the good guys!

Someone should publish a web series depicting a militia group storming Hollywood, burning down the Hollywood sign, burning down the studios and the actor’s mansions (with the actors still in them) — after all, turnabout is fair play.

I suppose Pamella did not notice the show Designated Survivor which first started airing in September.

Fear the Walking Dead depicted the fall of LA during the zombie apocalypse. But they didn’t show the fate of any actors or liberal politicians.

It was when Joffrey took Sansa outside to show her her father’s head.

But if you or I did it, we’d be in trouble.

Head of state: Game of Thrones sorry about decapitating George W Bush
HBO left scrambling after the former president’s head was shown on the medieval fantasy series plunged onto a stake

Fans noted online that the show’s creators had revealed their use of the 43rd president’s coconut in the DVD commentary that accompanied the first series. Now HBO is scrambling to avoid the boiling oil of censure.
