      I kind of thought this was the joke. Many many dystopian plots are about governments ran by corporations and filled with foreign spies.

        I figured this was just kind of a blurb by someone who just lacks depth in knowledge of these things

          Sarcasm often employs acting as someone who lacks knowledge about something. You can easily identify this when the person describes something unusually specific.

            It’s not unusually specific here, per se. It’s just a list with descriptions of several Americans who were elected into government. I couldn’t name novel or movie characters that precisely fit these traits off the top of my head.
