Frank Underwood’s dad was once photographed at a KKK rally-just as Donald Trump’s dad was once arrested at a KKK demonstration. Of course, echoes of political reality are inescapable, regardless. Isn’t the actual rational objection a practical one? Can’t a first lady have just as much de facto power as a VP? Aren’t people already factoring her in when they consider whether to vote Underwood? Isn’t putting her in the VP spot redundant? Why doesn’t she see that? In moments like this it’s good to remember that Cards really, fundamentally is a stupid TV show instead of a particularly cunning comment on political reality.
