Stephen King is dog video sexstill keeping his sharp, critical eye on Donald Trump, comparing the president to two characters from his own work.
SEE ALSO: Stephen King trolls Donald Trump with hilarious 3-tweet horror storyIn an editorial for The Guardian, King compares Trump to both Greg Stillson from The Dead Zoneand Jim Rennie from Under The Dome.
Stillson is "a door-to-door Bible salesman with a gift of gab, a ready wit and the common touch" who is prophesied to become president and start World War III. Mashable's own Sam Haysom previously talked about how Stillson's rise in the book mirrors that of Trump's.
In an ironic pop culture twist, Stillson is played by Martin Sheen in the film version, over a decade before he would play a completely different kind of president on The West Wing.
It's not the first time King has compared Trump to Stillson, either.

Meanwhile, King summarizes Rennie thusly:
...a crook, a cozener and a sociopath, the worst possible choice in a time of crisis, but he’s got a folksy, straight-from-the-shoulder delivery that people relate to. The fact that he’s incompetent at best and downright malevolent at worst doesn’t matter.
Damn, that's harsh.
And Rennie's portrayal on the television version of Under The Dome-- by Dean Norris, aka Hank from Breaking Bad-- is no kinder.
It's all just par for the course for King, who has been anything but shy about slamming Trump publicly.
As for the rest of King's editorial, it's a loooooooong read (would you expect anything else from him?) using fictional characters to explain how Trump, like Stillson and Big Jim, seemed to fail upward. Your enjoyment mileage will vary, depending on what you think of King's writing.
Regardless, it's another example of King's anti-Trump fire to file away while we wait for King to meet Snoop Dogg halfway and mash Trump with Pennywise.
