It is just another "Trump is playing the public", like: "It's not meee! - It's the others!"

The "Forbidden Planet" was published under the name W. J. Stuart (a pseudonym of Philip MacDonald).

In Forbidden Planet, the godlike capability is primarily from a planet-wide (underground) machine, not one handheld item per protagonist. It’s common for recollections to compress that into “devices” (e.g., personal access/controls) because the machine effectively makes thought into reality at planetary scale.
