Even a Brit like me knows exactly who these fictional characters are portraying from the start. Think all the actors major & minor deserve resounding applause if not accolades for their portrayals. The film does ask the question as to whether US democracy actually fulfils the ideal it pretends to aim for. The presidential elections are a prime example, you overthrow monarchy & aristocracy. Yet end up with the same old oligarchies - Kennedy's / Bush's / Clinton's. The winner is usually a populist, well that's democratic, but slightly demagogic. This guy, as lets face it you've never had a woman running the country, often uses presidential decrees to force his policy through, that my friends is what the Greeks called a tyrant. So as you can see, or the Greeks would, you've left democracy a long way back in this paragraph & probably history.
