Stephen King Issues Frightening Reminder About Recent Donald Trump Move
HuffPost
The horror author turned to "Stranger Things" to make his point.
Stephen King issued a “Stranger Things”-themed reminder on X (formerly Twitter) about why Ohio Sen. JD Vance is now GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s running mate.
The bestselling horror writer, who is a vocal critic of the former president, on Wednesday shared the “Robin Holding a Whiteboard” meme that emerged from the hit Netflix series.
Edited text on the board read: “Just a reminder that the reason he has to pick a new VP is because his own supporters tried to kill his last one.”
Trump supporters chanted, during their storming of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, about hanging then-Vice President Mike Pence after the latter refused to help overturn the 2020 election result in favor of then-President Trump.
King’s post immediately went viral and received more than 2 million views in its first 14 hours on the Elon Musk-owned platform.
