  • In "The Plot Against the King," a picture book by Mr Patel, apparently meant for children who do not overhear enough Fox News at home, Kash the Distinguished Discoverer is a wizard "known far and wide as the one person who could discover anything about anything".

The article from The Economist, titled "King Donald's Wizard," discusses the influence and role of a key advisor in Donald Trump's potential second term, should he win the 2024 presidential election. This advisor, often referred to as Trump's "wizard," is portrayed as a master strategist who has been instrumental in shaping Trump's political maneuvers and policy decisions. The piece delves into how this figure operates behind the scenes, leveraging a deep understanding of Trump's instincts and the political landscape to craft an agenda that aligns with Trump's vision of America. It highlights the advisor's controversial methods, including the manipulation of information and the orchestration of political events to maintain Trump's power base. The article also raises concerns about the implications of such concentrated influence, questioning the democratic processes and the potential for policy-making to become more opaque and less accountable.
