Stephen King uses Bush comparison to slam Trump on Twitter

If you’ve so much as glanced at Stephen King’s Twitter feed, you’ll know he’s a long way from being Donald Trump’s number one fan.

He’s previously referred to the man currently serving as President as an “impulsive, bad-tempered idiot”, a “genuinely nasty man”, and a “rabid coyote with bad hair” (among many, many other choice descriptions).

On Wednesday evening, though, his anger was directed at Trump’s actions while Hurricane Michael swept Florida. And to make his point, he drew a comparison to George W. Bush.

King’s comments refer to the rally Trump held in Pennsylvania on Wednesday.

The Bush reference, meanwhile, relates to the former President flying over a Hurricane Katrina-ravaged New Orleans, and surveying the damage from Air Force One, in 2005 — an event that some have argued caused lasting damage to his reputation.

King’s tweet has since been shared over 5,000 times.
