Designated Survivor (spoiler)

As we are watching the story unfolds, we cannot help seeing parallel to the real news.

So I got some chuckles from the recap on TV Guide:

Kirkman decided that telling his citizens that the vice president was part of a vast conspiracy... The President of the United States lying? Wow, I hope we never get to that in real life!

and..

Kirkman finally realizes that Alex might be on to something by getting the kids out of there, so he agrees to try out her plan -- send her and the kids to Camp David -- for a month. Could you imagine a First Lady and president's child not living at the White House!?!? That would be insane! And it would cost the taxpayers millions of dollars in extra security. Alex, why do you want to raise my taxes and cut the Meals on Wheels program? I hope that never happens in real life.
