Stephen King is a horror writer known for well over 75 novels, short stories, and novellas. He has been an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump since he started running for office in 2015. He even said President Donald Trump is scarier than any character he had ever written.
For a while, the President had Stephen King blocked on Twitter, but a judge ruled that Trump can’t block Americans because those are Presidential announcements.

Deatheaters are monsters in Harry Potter that suck out souls.
4. A recent tweet from Mr. King.
Trump is protecting statues instead of people.

Come to COVID WORLD, in Florida! Ride the Coffin Coaster! Take a cruise on the Fever Flatboats! Free beer for the kiddies, free wine for the winos!

It’s bad when the real world sounds a lot like a Stephen King story.

125,000 dead Americans and Donald Trump is playing golf.
Unreal.— Stephen King (@StephenKing) June 27, 2020
It’s true, we now have the highest number of deaths from COVID and Donald Trump was playing golf.
7. This reference to Trump’s empty rally.
6 members of Trump's Tulsa advance staff have tested positive for COVID-19. Each may have infected hundreds with the virus already.

Trump had his first rally since the virus started and it was a variable petri dish (of the people that were there).

It doesn't change, does it? https://t.co/cTiFnqwWdb

The Stand is about a killer flu virus that escapes from a government lab and the hell that follows.
9. That time he compared Trump to H.P. Lovecraft’s famous monster Cthulu.
Stephen King tweeted this.
Breaking News: Reliable sources reveal that Donald Trump is actually Cthulu. The absurd hairdo isn't absurd at all. It hides the tentacles.
— Stephen King (@StephenKing) September 12, 2016
A twitter account claiming Cthulu is running for president tweeted back:
Trump could barely hope to be 1/63 as great as I am if he weren't such a buffoon, @StephenKing pic.twitter.com/AKU0PFNoG2

Jobs are up, true.
Permanent layoffs are also up.

Looks good for the stock market and white America.
Blue collar workers continue to suffer.— Stephen King (@StephenKing) June 5, 2020
This is King’s response to Donald Trump saying that jobs are coming back.
