'Economy? What economy?' Obama gets advanced episodes of 'Game of Thrones'

Far-fetched? Not even remotely.

From The Verge:

HBO sends him the episodes before they air for everyone else. “One perk of being the most powerful man in the world: yes, you get to see episodes early,” Game of Thrones co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss tell Vanity Fair in an email.

Isn’t that special?

why does obama get to watch game of thrones first and not me

Because he’s the president and clearly has nothing more pressing to deal with.

Good to know he’s got his priorities straight.
