About Trump using the Game of Thrones references...

I don't know if he directly used the reference of the wall in the story as a symbol for his wall on the border with Mexico, but, the George Martin wall came down in a short time in the last two episodes. No effect at all.

Joffrey is a young Trump. Portrayed before Trump's Presidential bid.

make no mistake, the sensationalist perversity of many of the characters is what intrigues him. That first episode got his attention with the long-haired blond woman having sex with her brother who pushed the kid out the window.

Nor has he ever had any desire.

He doesn't have the attention span of a housefly. And if it's not Fox News, and they're not talking glowingly about HIM, he couldn't be less interested.

Some lackey is posting the GOT stuff of late to cash in on the buzz over the final season.

that he got to one of those Pornhub-type sites where they had all the sex scenes from GOT 9not to mentioin all other cable shows and movies) distilled down into like a 30 minute segment.

Not that I'd know anything about those things...
