Ryan Murphy's first Netflix original series, The Politician, stars Ben Platt as a hyper-ambitious high school student determined to become president of his school (and later, the United States) — but the base premise of this show doesn't come anywhere close to explaining how wonderfully bonkers it looks.
Going by the trailer alone, there will be attempted assassinations, screaming matches, sabotage, period drama costume parties, and a Jessica Lange performance for the ages.
The Politician premieres on Netflix September 27th.
