Apart from penning bestsellers for the past 5 decades, another thing that the horror maestro excels at is when it comes to taking shots at Donald Trump. To put it mildly, the acclaimed author Stephen King isn’t a fan of Trump and has been pretty outspoken about his viewpoints on theHome Alonestar.
From calling his presidency into question to expressing his distaste for the former US president, the author has continued to voice his issues with Trump and even accused him of dividing the country into two.

Sharing his disdain for theHome Alonestar, the acclaimed author claimed“he’s[Trump] torn this country in two”, and suggested that his stay at the office was on the verge of ending.
Let’s put it this way: if the Russians aren’t paying him, they should have, because he’s torn this country in two. I think that his 15 minutes are just about up. I think even his hardcore supporters have started to soften.
This is one of the many instances when the author ripped into theHome Alonestar, and it doesn’t seem he’s planning to slow down anytime soon.

THE LIFE OF CHUCK bows tomorrow evening at the Toronto Film Festival. This is one of the good ones. It’s sad, has a touch of the paranormal, but it’s also joyful and life-affirming. Maybe not what you’d expect from me, but there ya go.
