“While Donald Trump is never mentioned in the movie or by the actors or creators, his presence is felt and it's bluntly clear where they got their inspiration.

President Orlean is far more concerned with primary elections than an extinction-level comet hurtling towards Earth in a metaphor for climate change that slaps viewers straight in the face.

Streep said she found inspiration from the role from various different places and cited "preposterous people."

"There was so many places to take things from, because there's so many preposterous people who've put themselves in public places recently, and shamelessly so," Streep told reporters at a press conference on Monday night.

It was kind of fun to put together this character that was in just pure id, just what her appetite wanted," Streep said of president Orlean. "And about amassing power, money, more power, and more money, and nice hair and nails, you know?"
