Anyone here watch it? Any thoughts?

Never watched or even heard about the show.
Have you watched it? If so what are your thoughts?
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Is this similar to "The man in the high castle"?

Not really as the Germans don't come to the US. That's why it's much more believable.

Very interesting show IMO. Good wake up call (not that it already happened, but that it could).

quote "Philip Roth E-Mails on Trump" (January 2017)
Quote
Roth was interviewed in The New Yorker about similarities between his novel and the election of Trump. Roth responded, "It is easier to comprehend the election of an imaginary President like Charles Lindbergh than an actual President like Donald Trump. Lindbergh, despite his Nazi sympathies and racist proclivities, was a great aviation hero ... Trump is just a con artist."
