Notice how "Billions" has remained mostly unpolitical until THIS season when it basically joined The Resistance?

BTW, their portrayal of Jock Jeffcoat as a crude Texas redneck is so over the top ridiculous that it ends up as being HILARIOUS.

I’ve never heard of the show. It must be really popular.

I’m just obtuse, I guess. There was nothing in the episode that struck me as being anti-Trump.

Sounds like the old Dallas TV show in the 70’s with J.R. Ewing at the Billionair helm.

Funny, I love the show and I find no parody of the Trump administration.

You don’t think AG call up U.S attorneys and ask them to prioritize and re-prioritise agendas?

I take no offense at the southern texas drawl. It traditionally thought of as trustworthy and folksy.

As for asking to stop some of the Wall street investigations if you remember, they played up that the Paul Giamatti character (the U.S attorney) was consumed past the point of reason with prosecuting Axl holdings and the previous AG had hinted he should back off too.
