Dick Cheney, the most powerful vice president in U.S. history, is the model for current U.S. Vice President Mike Pence. During Bush's eight years in office, on the surface, Cheney was the No. 2 figure in the United States, but in fact many decisions of President George W. Bush, including the war in Afghanistan and the invasion of Iraq, were determined by him.

He has always been a conservative, having worked for the administrations of Nixon, Ford, and Bush Sr., then worked as CEO of Haliburton Corporation for a few years, and then entered the White House with Bush Jr.; but he supported gay marriage. attitude because his daughter is a lesbian. In addition, Cheney delayed five times and did not want to go to the Vietnam War battlefield, but he was an out-and-out war hawk. Adam McKay said: "I always thought Cheney was an interesting character and wanted to find out what was driving him and what he believed in. So we did a deep dive and the results were astounding. Called the most powerful political figure in modern American history, he has largely shaped the international standing of the United States today, and the approach he has taken to grab power is astounding."
