Probably still, Sanders? He’s getting pretty old, though, so maybe AOC would be a better choice.
Yeah I feel like this is the real answer. Maybe sanders could run with AOC as vice president and then step down if his age starts being a problem and let her take over
Bernie Sanders 2025!!!
Luigi
even if convicted of felony, we know now is not an impediment
fewer felonies than the current president
That’s a very low bar though. 34, was it?
96 charges, 34 convictions so far
How is Luigi? Has anyone heard anything from him recently?
They stopped talking about him once they realised how many people were on his side.
Sometimes I wonder if he would actually be a good choice, considering he doesn’t have a history in politics. And then I remember how Trump just kinda decided he was gonna be president with no political background.
This circlejerk needs to go home. Oh yeah, Lemmy is your home. Y’all thirsty.
AOC hands down.
Let’s make finnster president just because it would be funny and the conservatives’ heads would explode. Is she a qualified? No. Is she american? No. Would she even want to be president? Probably not. Would she still be a million times better than the current president? Definitely
Paw Patrol. They seem to have a handle on things. How many shitty human presidents have we had? How many shitty dog presidents? I rest my case.
Like every other episode involves some train crash or other perfectly avoidable catastrophe. Granted, that’s maybe their nepo mayors fault (her grandpa was mayor back in the day) but they’re still very complicit.
(My daughter is 2, these thoughts are all I have to get me through watching it with her)

Not to mention the right wing authoritarianism. You’re not alone in noticing. The theme song is great, though.
My daughter cheers Go Go Go! When they do that action song during an episode, and part of me wants a parody that just continues that repetition without ever ending until the credits fade to black.
I’m also not too worried about my daughter becoming right wing. She can already tell how uncomfortable I am around cops, lol (but she mostly just loves firefighters and construction workers).
They are cops
POTUS? Nobody. No single person should hold a position with such power.
High 5 maybe?
The AI from the movie I, Robot. The one that Will Smith destroys. The one that wanted to protect everyone from ourselves.
I think you’re thinking of VIKI from I, Robot.
A.I. Artificial Intelligence was the movie where Haley Joel Osment was a robot kid.
You’re right. Corrected.
Her logic IS undeniable.
Maybe even Skynet at this point…
You may be in luck!

President of what? We have a prime minister
Me
What’s your first policy?
Honoring treaties and acknowledging indigenous sovereignty. After which I would resign after signing an executive order declaring the US an illegal entity.

I hope you get banned for being a fucking creep you gross fuck
You sound just like they do
Bernie, because i think he would be really really good at training his VP AOC to be president after him
If we’re talking about real life people, Bernie.
Otherwise, Papyrus from Undertale. I don’t think he has a bad bone in his body!
President of?
USAmerica?
Stalin
May get fun replies
Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman as vice.
No. RMS can stay the fuck away. At best, he’d eat things from under our feet.
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov “Lenin.”
