Exactly this.
The other night I burst out laughing when I remembered Giuliani’s 2020 press conference at the Four Seasons Philadelphia. Doofuses saw “Four Seasons” in probably an ancient paper phonebook and thought it was going to be the upmarket hotel or the upmarket restaurant.
Cut to America’s Mayor in front of a green warehouse run by Four Seasons Total Landscaping.
They could not have tried something this audacious on Veep let alone House of Cards. It would not have been believable.
On the other hand, then, everything wild, unlikely, overwrought, and ethically appalling in Veep and House of Cards is now within plausibility and reminds me too much of reality.
