    Those weird sycophantic meetings where everyone takes turns praising Trump for the cameras always remind me of a classic episode of The Twilight Zone called “It’s a Good Life” (s03e08). For anyone out of the loop, it’s about a six-year-old kid who had god-like powers and used them to hold his small town hostage. Anyone that failed to tell him what a good boy he was and how everything he did was good and special would be “banished to the Cornfield.” The similarities are disturbing.
