Maybe we'd finally actually do something about climate change and for an extra special bonus we get to see him kick the shit out of the likes of the Koch's and whatever demon spawn runs Nestle.
Side note: mufasa is my namesake! I'm just so super creative and ran it backwards lol
He is summoned after the election results by force of law and then he isn't allowed to disappear until his term is up.
Not summoning a duly elected captain planet is punishable by no less than 6 years arguing against fox news propagandists and a fine of 3,600 dark chocolate bars paid to me personally. The impact of cocoa production on the environment would be an extra screw turn, forcing their hand.
Brother she would be perfectly happy with Trump as president as long as that bitch Trudy Beekman lost all of her savings first.
If anyone from the archer cast is president im going Lana > Cyril > Pam > Krieger (The last would ensure our destruction, but we would certainly go out in a memorable way).
Both of the archers are right up there with Cheryl/Carol/Charlene for piss poor candidacy.
Eh.... idk man. Barry was redeemable at the end and barring a few cases, was surprisingly competent. Pretty sure we got spray tan Cheryl. (Nepo baby, you're never sure if theyre on drugs or just severely mentally deficient, and definitely unironically uses the phrase, "the poors")
They're literally the same character, other than the fact that Lucille has to be more manipulative than Mallory. Mallory gets shit done directly because she is directly in charge. Lucille manipulates everyone around her, and gets shit done indirectly. It isn't as efficient, but it's the only path she has.
Out of the big three captains, Janeway would likely make the most capable president. Kirk would constantly be trying to fist fight politicians, Picard would quickly be bored with the day-to-day and would vanish to go work on an archeological site somewhere.
Sisko would throw Mitch McConnell off the roof of the White House, then fall off of it himself.
Princess Caroline. She can make deals, is passionate about her work but also her family. She would make this country function and function well and she'd never stop till it was done.
All those "women can't be president" douchebags would shut the fuck up and start becoming "nice guys" which would be cringy but at least it would get them to stop sabotaging the rest of us.
Spock would likely make a terrible president, purely because he’d be surrounded by illogical politicians who are constantly trying to backstab him. You need a president who is capable of not only being level-headed, but also capable of playing politics when it matters. The unfortunate truth is that politics often requires playing the long game, instead of simply finding consensus and getting shit done right away.
There are many, many cartoon characters I would vote for over Trump, all the way down to other villainous incompetents like Dick Dastardly or Elmer Fudd.
Sure, he wants to kill Superman, that's not the best political stance, but other than that he'll basically just focus on fixing everything else that slows society down in order to have a society that's better at killing Superman.
Plus it's not like he's successful at killing Superman. So really it's a win-win.
I don't think he'd want the job, but he would do it were he asked and give it 110%. He's no nonsense, a facts-based decision maker, and he listens to people's issues and makes fair decisions if it's what you want to hear or not. He's also not too full of himself to admit when he's been wrong. He seeks out experts on matters outside of his experience and respects their opinions. He loves his country and looks to do right by those that entrust him with a job.
He would also probably be unfortunately remembered as a terrible president a la Jimmy Carter, as he'd likely trust a number of people he shouldn't to keep their word, he'd be too compromising for a lot of people, and I don't think people would like his "lack of personality" they'd get from his public persona. I think Hank would be a top-notch cabinet member though! I would totally support him for any of a number of different ones.
Do comic books count? If yes I'd say Spider Jerusalem from Transmetropolitan. If no, General Hunter Gathers from Venture Bros or Dale Gribble from King of the Hill. Maybe Uncle Duke from Doonesbury.
Scrooge McDuck (Duck Tales version). Dude knows how to manage people and balance a budget. Sure he might occasionally get obsessed with some treasure in the middle east but that's no different than most presidents.
Just for the comedy that might ensue from how horrible of a president he'd be, my vote is Principal Dr. Cinnamon J. Scudworth with Buttlertron as his VP.
Either that, or if possible, as a slightly more serious answer, why not have someone like an actual scientist like Professor Professor from The Secret Show with Name Changed Daily as the VP ( or vice versa )? They already run a not-so-secret spy organization, so why not?
Uncle Iroh, but post general/fire lord.
I was gonna say, you've got to be real careful about your timeline there
I thought Iroh never held the title of Fire Lord
That is outrageous! It's unfair!
I'm pretty sure he turned it down?
Captain planet.
Maybe we'd finally actually do something about climate change and for an extra special bonus we get to see him kick the shit out of the likes of the Koch's and whatever demon spawn runs Nestle.
Side note: mufasa is my namesake! I'm just so super creative and ran it backwards lol
TexasDrunk maybe a hero! Really can't tell unless he's driving near zero!
How would this work? What if some of the planeteers rebelled and refused to summon him?
He is summoned after the election results by force of law and then he isn't allowed to disappear until his term is up.
Not summoning a duly elected captain planet is punishable by no less than 6 years arguing against fox news propagandists and a fine of 3,600 dark chocolate bars paid to me personally. The impact of cocoa production on the environment would be an extra screw turn, forcing their hand.
Linka would have zero patience for Fox News people. especially if they're positive about Russian expansionism.
RE: namesake creativity. Hey, at least you spelled it backwards correctly!
Hermes Conrad. He's got a level head and knows his way around a bureaucracy.
Idk I kinda like being able to take a shit without having to fill out a form every time.
Keith David's president from Rick and Morty, because of the soothing baritone.
I mean we could just use Keith David in general right? Like would it necessarily have to be that version from Rick & Morty?
We could but I mean he's already got experience
He's got VP experience if we go with the Saints Row version
He's a VP that really gets things done, in Saints Row.
Requiem for a Dream though...
President meeseeks would be fire. He'd get shit done for people.
King Julien. No one comes close.
I gather you like to move it move it?
And he just wants everyone to be Physically Fit! Physically Fit!
Winnie the Pooh for the irony
You know, cause they keep calling some other head of State that
This will be an interesting meeting.
Archer.
Mallory Archer.
Brother she would be perfectly happy with Trump as president as long as that bitch Trudy Beekman lost all of her savings first.
If anyone from the archer cast is president im going Lana > Cyril > Pam > Krieger (The last would ensure our destruction, but we would certainly go out in a memorable way).
Both of the archers are right up there with Cheryl/Carol/Charlene for piss poor candidacy.
we're headed for Barry though. 😞
Eh.... idk man. Barry was redeemable at the end and barring a few cases, was surprisingly competent. Pretty sure we got spray tan Cheryl. (Nepo baby, you're never sure if theyre on drugs or just severely mentally deficient, and definitely unironically uses the phrase, "the poors")
So, Lucille from Arrested Development
They have the same vibe, but Lucille is kind of a buffoon, whereas Mallory gets shit done.
They're literally the same character, other than the fact that Lucille has to be more manipulative than Mallory. Mallory gets shit done directly because she is directly in charge. Lucille manipulates everyone around her, and gets shit done indirectly. It isn't as efficient, but it's the only path she has.
I'm going to cheat a little and say Captain Kirk from Star Trek TAS
Janeway from Prodigy. Or maybe somebody from Lower Decks, but I can't decide which.
Out of the big three captains, Janeway would likely make the most capable president. Kirk would constantly be trying to fist fight politicians, Picard would quickly be bored with the day-to-day and would vanish to go work on an archeological site somewhere.
Sisko would throw Mitch McConnell off the roof of the White House, then fall off of it himself.
He is from Iowa. But Spock would be a good Secretary of State (McCoy should be vice president to get the Southern vote).
Nice try big politics! You wont get my opinion!
Joking, I'd vote for the roadrunner.
I'm voting for coyote. His approval rating is catching up to roadrunners, I'm sure of it.
MegaMind.
@Melatonin Since you lot can't be trusted I'm calling in Princess Twilight Sparkle to take you back to a monarchy.
Kodos
I voted for Kang!
Sort of disappointed that I had to scroll this far…
William Murderface
I want the whole band as president. Joint office shared by five dudes who just want everything to be black and metal all the time.
At least they're open about wanting people to die.
The bass is the foundation of the executive branch of the government!
They were governors of Florida
They'd get bored after a time and Charles Foster Offdensen would have to step in.
I mean Charles is incredibly competent at just about everything so...
Murderface Murderface Murderface
Clark Kent.
He always disappears in emergency situations though. Can't rely on the guy.
The Lorax
Daria
She would hate that so much
The American people need her
Princess Caroline. She can make deals, is passionate about her work but also her family. She would make this country function and function well and she'd never stop till it was done.
And she is used to apologizing for idiots so she'd be able to alot in and rebuild international relationships.
Bender Bending Rodríguez
He'll have to show us his Earth certificate, though.
Jessica Rabbit.
All those "women can't be president" douchebags would shut the fuck up and start becoming "nice guys" which would be cringy but at least it would get them to stop sabotaging the rest of us.
Oh I can see it now. “I voted for you! Why won’t you return my DMs?!”
There was a Karl Marx anime, so anime Karl Marx 👀
Well. There was a tos cartoon so spock.
Spock would likely make a terrible president, purely because he’d be surrounded by illogical politicians who are constantly trying to backstab him. You need a president who is capable of not only being level-headed, but also capable of playing politics when it matters. The unfortunate truth is that politics often requires playing the long game, instead of simply finding consensus and getting shit done right away.
I'd be ok with that. I want it to be simply finding consensus and getting shit done right away. Also he would follow the law.
That would be a nice change
I can see the powers that be plotting an assassination. A rational, kind leader that doesn’t allow corporate greed? Can’t have that!
The coyote from Road Runner. He comes up with plans, some simple, some complex, and they always fail to work. Oh wait…
Johnny Bravo
... a senile version of him IS actually the president.
Nah. Johnny respected consent.
Hobbes
Space Ghost
Space Ghost and Dino Boy Space Ghost or Space Ghost Coast to Coast Space Ghost?
Coast to Coast of course
Space Tree
Nausicaa president
Saitama vice
There are many, many cartoon characters I would vote for over Trump, all the way down to other villainous incompetents like Dick Dastardly or Elmer Fudd.
A lot less evil but the same corruption and ineptitude
And we'd get a Monorail
In fairness, he'd vote for me.
My villain choice: Lex Luthor
My hero choice: The Martian Manhunter
Do you realize how much power Lex would have to give up to be President?
Lex Luthor.
Sure, he wants to kill Superman, that's not the best political stance, but other than that he'll basically just focus on fixing everything else that slows society down in order to have a society that's better at killing Superman.
Plus it's not like he's successful at killing Superman. So really it's a win-win.
I don't know, isn't he some ultraliberal technobroligarch that would experiment on the poor under the guise of affordable healthcare ?
So no difference from current situation we are in.
That is what I was getting at
Elon Musk is Temu Lex Luthor.
Hank Hill
I don't think he'd want the job, but he would do it were he asked and give it 110%. He's no nonsense, a facts-based decision maker, and he listens to people's issues and makes fair decisions if it's what you want to hear or not. He's also not too full of himself to admit when he's been wrong. He seeks out experts on matters outside of his experience and respects their opinions. He loves his country and looks to do right by those that entrust him with a job.
He would also probably be unfortunately remembered as a terrible president a la Jimmy Carter, as he'd likely trust a number of people he shouldn't to keep their word, he'd be too compromising for a lot of people, and I don't think people would like his "lack of personality" they'd get from his public persona. I think Hank would be a top-notch cabinet member though! I would totally support him for any of a number of different ones.
Do comic books count? If yes I'd say Spider Jerusalem from Transmetropolitan. If no, General Hunter Gathers from Venture Bros or Dale Gribble from King of the Hill. Maybe Uncle Duke from Doonesbury.
Uncle Duke? Man, that's a throwback!
Think I'll go listen to some Captain & Tennille, "Muskrat Love"
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
E: Always forget the diacritical marks
Scrooge McDuck (Duck Tales version). Dude knows how to manage people and balance a budget. Sure he might occasionally get obsessed with some treasure in the middle east but that's no different than most presidents.
Jesus of Nazareth
Someone even more incompetent so he can destroy the USA quicker but less likely to push the nuke button.
Franziska von Karma. I was going to say Miles Edgeworth, but... let's face it, there are plenty of foolish fools in need of a whipping right now. 😌
(I know she's really a "game character", but she was in the anime, so she still counts. 🧑⚖️)
No thanks. I'd vote for Phoenix. or maybe Pearl when she turns 35.
Bill Cipher
if i wanted to destroy the u.s., i'd vote for ralph wiggum.
if i wanted someone better than most presidents since lincoln, i'd vote for the lenin mummy from the simpsons.
Griffith, he is just so charismatic and determined. And those CURLS
Your average Griffith enjoyer
King Bob, from Minions. We have to run through the RGB spectrum. Green would be Shrek, blue would be James P Sullivan
Senator Chris Zaxar Travers.
Wait, who are we voting for?
Who did I say I was gonna vote for?
Why did Trump run uncontested?
Dr.Doom. He's got experience and a pretty good track record all things considered.
Just for the comedy that might ensue from how horrible of a president he'd be, my vote is Principal Dr. Cinnamon J. Scudworth with Buttlertron as his VP.
Either that, or if possible, as a slightly more serious answer, why not have someone like an actual scientist like Professor Professor from The Secret Show with Name Changed Daily as the VP ( or vice versa )? They already run a not-so-secret spy organization, so why not?
Master Shake jk jk I want meatwad
Professor X. He's already responsible with even more power, and this way people would choose to listen to him.
Satsuki Kiryuin, fuck it she might get our shit together.
Bugs Bunny.
Lisa Simpson
Oh, good one!
Bugs Bunny or Yosemite Sam
OG Jesse Custer from The Preacher comic series, not the sanitized version from the series.
Duckman
