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.
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.
The coyote from Road Runner. He comes up with plans, some simple, some complex, and they always fail to work. Oh waitβ¦
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!
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.
The Lorax
Nausicaa president
Saitama vice
Bender Bending RodrΓguez
He'll have to show us his Earth certificate, though.
Daria
Well. There was a tos cartoon so spock.
Spock would likely make a terrible president, purely because heβd 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.
Johnny Bravo
... a senile version of him IS actually the president.
Nah. Johnny respected consent.
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.
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.
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.
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.
