Characters could be color-coded. The president could wear a white hat, or a white carnation from Day One. Maybe Jeff Sessions starts off with a white hat, but maybe it gets swapped for gray (and stays gray)in the episode where he recuses himself. You might see a character come in as a "Good Guy" and be highly praised by the president's team -- but the whole time, she just wears black. We know she's a bad apple. But the characters in the show have no idea. And, of course, the media just look like morticians because they never wear anything but black. Except one or two who go on TV wearing blazing white suits while all the other people in the media scoff at them.
Could be educational and entertaining. But they wouldn't make it.
They were trying to ‘engineer’ a Watergate 2.0.
They failed miserably.
They will pay the price for their treasonous support of Hillary even so..............
Maybe Robert Redford could play Rodger Stone.
