In 1992, the film Bob Roberts was released. And I have no memory of it! It was written and directed by Tim Robbins and he stars in the titular role.
It does what I think a good satire should, i.e., it provides a combination of funny, clever, and downright chilling material.
It's difficult to find but well worth it. Gore Vidal's character, Senator Brickley Paiste, and Giancarlo Esposito's character, John Alijah "Bugs" Raplin, tell you the way America really works.
⚠️ Spoilers ahead.
