British and dated (related to Trump's State visit to the UK) but worthy of recall.

Corgis are about the size of domestic cats. I figure that Obama, a dog lover, got to meet them, and Trump didn't. We will likely soon find out (the late Queen was extremely secretive!) Small dogs have big teeth and claws, and they have the power with which to express their opinions of people with those teeth and claws. Take it from me: dog claws are dangerous!
The Chaplin character (Chaplin was British) is a mockery of a real dictator, unlike the wannabe that Trump was (and still is). George Orwell... well, we know the connection to Trump, don't we?

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
