Filmmaker Eugene Jarecki onderzoekt in deze documentaire iets curieus: de parallellen tussen de opkomst en ondergang van muzieklegende Elvis Presley en dat van de verenigde Staten zelf, tijdens de beruchte presidentiële verkiezingen van 2016. Deze hebben er uiteindelijk toe geleid dat de meest controversiële president uit de Amerikaanse geschiedenis, Donald Trump, aan de macht kwam.
Nee, helaas is The King nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
