The creator and one of the main stars of the hit HBO show "Game of Thrones" feel President Trump is a "petulant" child and called the president a "con artist."
"I think Joffrey is now the king in America," Martin told Esquire magazine, comparing Trump to the power-hungry young King Joffrey in the hit HBO series. "And he's grown up just as petulant and irrational as he was when he was 13 in the books."
Joffrey was one of the most hated villains in the series and was often referred to as sadistic, egotistical and a spoiled brat.

The Winds of Winter will not be blowing in my house. Even if he actually writes it.
Martin may know everything about Westeros. But he hasn't a clue about reality.
Game of Thrones????. . . .doesn’t seem like I missed anything there.
Trump is king Baratheon. For sure.
Lol. And I bet this yakov voted for Barry The Kid . . .twice
Hollyweird is right
If anyone was Joffrey it was Obama: petulant, entitled, thin-skinned, of questionable birth. Martin should quit the commentary and make with the Winter. He probably tied his plots into too many knots and can’t figure out how to undo them all.
I was thinking of reading his books but I guess he’s an idiot.
Doesn't understand the concept of a Border Wall, wants to make invading people citizens and uses Blood Magic to destroy her enemies.
Sounds about right.
I would compare Obama to “Reek.”
I hope everyone dies and the whitewalkers win. Otherwise a bastard rules westeros. They’re all terrible people.
Martin, I love your work - so just shut-up and write - please...
Clickbait.
He’s a fat old sadistic (am I the only one who detected an author’s chuckle as he murdered off the characters he’d built up as heroes?) left wing MF who’s been part of the clique that’s turned the Hugo Awards into a politically correct exclusionary of Conservatives club. I’m resolved that if I ever meet him I’ll save up saliva to give a good wad of spit directly in his face.
Donald doesn't drink. Big deal for a President. We dodged a drunken hag with some kind of organic brain syndrome.
Right now Europe desperately needs a Tywin Lannister to right in on our side.
He is a lazy idiot who has allowed television writers to get ahead of his books. He has created a make-believe world modeled on the dark ages and left his society mired in that feudal system for anywhere, according to his books, from ten thousand to sixteen thousand years. No progress, social or scientific. No democratic struggles. No hope. Only ugliness and using people as pawns for power.
Martin is the Michael Moore of the fantasy / science fiction world in so many ways.
A constant liar who fails to deliver on his promises, and like like Ariana Grande, despises the people who made him rich.
A lot of people compare Martin to Tolkien. Tolkien’s world was one of nobility vs. evil. Martin’s is one of moral depravity vs. even more moral depravity. In which one does it matter who wins?
If anything Trump is Baratheon.
Hillary is Joffrey.
Obama is Loras Tyrell
No the only latter day king we have had died 4 months ago...
I just wish he would stay buried...
The king is dead...God save the president...
