For a town that seems to dislike the man, Hollywood sure does make a lot of President Trump-themed content.

He’s been in office less than a year, yet it’s astonishing to see the amount of work that artists and other creative people are dedicating to their Trump hysteria. Television is the primary venue for this.

“Saturday Night Live” is all Trump, week in and week out; the spinoff “Weekend Update” is the same; on Comedy Central’s “The President Show,” there’s a Trump impression for half an hour; Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” has become just as political as his previous Comedy Central program; there’s Michael Moore’s upcoming Trump-themed show — and there’s plenty more as well. Moreover, there’s an animated Trump family program from Colbert and a David Letterman Netflix show that will likely be centered around Trump.

It’s tiring and hugely unoriginal at this point — but many in Hollywood can’t get over their mania about the president. Now producer Ryan Murphy has promised the new season of the hit series “American Horror Story” will be also partly centered around Trump at least.

“The election is the jumping-off point of the show, but it’s really about the rise of a cult of personality,” Murphy told reporters recently after a press screening of the first three episodes of his show’s new season, subtitled “Cult.”

Murphy added that the objective of his show’s storyline is to tackle the “national conversation and both the euphoria and the fear” that came out of the 2016 presidential election.

The season will follow supporters of both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, and Murphy claims he is looking to keep things as fair as he can. “We’re not burning people in effigy or anything extreme,” he said.

He continued, “We’re trying to understand how someone who is very charismatic in the culture can rise up and become a leader. We’re not going to say we hate Trump. What did Trump tap into? We’re interested in his rise and how that happened.”

Murphy said his goal is not to be divisive as many might expect, but rather to open a much-needed cultural discussion between different political sides.

“The world we’re living in is ridiculous.”

“Everybody lost their s*** after the election, and people are still losing their s***, and there is no real discussion, and everyone is still at each other’s throats,” he said. “The world we’re living in is ridiculous, so a sense of humor is needed.”

While Murphy’s goals sound well and good enough, it’s difficult not to see this latest season of “American Horror Story” as just another example of Hollywood’s anti-Trump obsession. When that happens, the work suffers, as we have seen with “Saturday Night Live” and other programs that have shifted their focus almost entirely to badmouthing and tainting the president, however they can.

“American Horror Story: Cult” premieres on September 5 on FX.
