Trump is really trying hard to make Robert Jordan look like a prophet 💀
Explanation: Trump has some really strange parallels to Elaida from Wheel of Time. Their ego, incompetence, and obessession with “restoring greatness” are close enough to be weird, but it only gets weirder when you think about Elaida bulldozing the warder grounds to construct her own palace and abducting kings to restore the towers influence
It’s just fascism, it’s mind-numbingly boring in it’s predictability.
Yeah fair enough, as a fan of the series though I would say that as an american author Robert Jordan nailed the distinctive flavor of american fascism
Shohreh Aghdashloo is an amazing actress. I’ve loved her in every single role I’ve seen or heard her in.
SERIOUSLY. For a moment, I was like Trump is absolutely NOT Avasarala.
She is! I first encountered her in Renfield and when she was announced as Elaida I knew she would do an amazing job with the role. Sadly that got cut short, but I will treasure the bits we got
If you’ve not seen her as Avasarala in The Expanse do yourself a favour and watch it
Her voice swearing like a sailor is a glorious thing
Also, interestingly, her outfits in both shows 😅
You folks were not wrong. Loving the Expanse so far and watching her verbally shred other politicians has been amazing
Well I guess I know what I’m bringing to Date Night next week!
Seconded. I would grow a humiliation kink just for her.
I would gladly be sentenced to death by her.
