If you were wondering how Stephen King's feeling about the current state of politics, look no further than his most recent tweet.

On Tuesday, the horror author took to Twitter to blast Trump with what is perhaps one is his most no-holds-barred posts of the year so far (admittedly there are quite a few of these to choose from, but it's got to be up there).

Here's the tweet, which at the time of writing has been shared around 12,000 times:

So let's break that down. In the first part, King is presumably referring to the controversial statement Trump released about Saudi Arabia earlier in the day. The second part refers to Trump's defence of his daughter Ivanka over the recent news of her using a personal email account for White House business. The "AG" reference is to Trump's Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, who is currently facing his own problems related to his financial past. And the very last bit speaks for itself.

Still, political turmoil aside, at least the horror master is enjoying Thanksgiving.
