If Donald Trump loses the election in November, be sure to give all the credit to whom it’s due: Showtime.
Because we’re not sure there’s ever been a stronger case against Trump than this:
Brendan Gleeson as Donald Trump.@Jeff_Daniels as James Comey.
In a special two-night event, an all-star cast brings James Comey’s book to life in #TheComeyRule. pic.twitter.com/YEMt0L40P2

You thought actual James Comey was stunning and brave? Wait’ll you see the fictionalized version.
HA HA HA WHAT A HERO

It’s about time a major network gave James Comey a chance to explain his side of the story. We just haven’t had that, you know?

Can't wait to not watch this.

Jeff Daniels went from (poorly) playing a fake Republican on the Newsroom to playing a fake FBI director in James Comey. It's a perfect fit!

That about sums up “The Comey Rule,” yeah.
The proof that Democrats/media/NeverTrump don't *genuinely* care about conspiracy theories getting adopted by small or fringe portions of the general population is that they continue to actively push the "Russia collusion" conspiracy theory that causes such damage to the country. https://t.co/68sZ1iGlQo

So let me get this straight. We are worried about bs conspiracy theories on the right but this is fine…Resistance fanfic by a major outlet. https://t.co/HiCXyqBypw

If libs can't win an election, at least they can pump out dozens of books and movies and TV miniseries making excuses for why they lost. https://t.co/ggQTHnVxbw

Looking forward to the scene where Comey is getting ready for a big date and Trump slips Ex-Lax into his tea https://t.co/ggQTHnVxbw

Heh.
Showtime went from soft core porn to resistance porn.

A logical progression if you think about it.
But since we’re not total haters, we found something nice to say about “The Comey Rule”:
This is so cringe but Gleeson does a phenomenal Trump. https://t.co/5Lqc0WARvT

I mean, this show is gonna be total garbage, but shoutout to the hair and makeup artist on the Trump character. That's top notch work.
