When it comes to spreading propaganda, no one does it better than the Republicans and Trump allies.
Time and again, the radical group of individuals have desperately attempted to mobilise groups of people for their selfish interests, causing division and dispute in an already divided U.S. state. Unfortunately, their plan has mostly worked till now. However, there are still some people who see him and his allies as they are: hate-inciting, dictatorship-promoting, racist, sexist, transphobic, xenophobic, and anti-minority bigots.
It is not just the general public who are speaking against Trump and his government; it is also people in power who do not align themselves with him. Prominent among them is American author Stephen King, known for writing books such as The Shining and The Shawshank Redemption. King has been a vocal supporter of the Democrats, endorsing several politicians from the party during the presidential elections over the years. He has also been open about his criticism of Trump, with him being one of the few people who had signed a letter opposing his participation during the 2016 presidential elections.
King, doing justice to his surname, is yet again expressing disdain over Trump and his unparliamentary methods of exercising control over U.S. citizens. Not only that, he is also calling out those who support him.
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller has never shied away from echoing the words of his Dorito-brained boss. Time and again, he has taken to social media, especially X (previously Twitter), to express his views on critical issues and to blame the opposition for everything. On October 4, 2025, Miller, through a post on X, accused the Democrats of doing all the things the Republicans under Trump’s rule have been doing since he came to power in 2025. He wrote in the post:
“The issue before is now is very simple and clear. There is a large and growing movement of leftwing terrorism in this country. It is well organized and funded. And it is shielded by far-left Democrat judges, prosecutors and attorneys general.”
He did not stop there, as he continued to suggest a line of action that includes the use of “legitimate state power” to “dismantle terrorism and terror networks.” Naturally, Miller’s comments did not sit right with Stephen King, who jumped into the conversation, condemning him for his misguided views. He wrote:
“Sorry, Steve–The Constitution isn’t far left or far right. It’s the basis on our democracy, and you’re playing the terror card to try and overturn it. Won’t work.”
