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.

[–] Chip_Rat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

And she is used to apologizing for idiots so she'd be able to alot in and rebuild international relationships.

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.

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"

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.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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.

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.

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.

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. πŸ§‘β€βš–οΈ)

Griffith, he is just so charismatic and determined. And those CURLS

[–] Octrom@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

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
