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?

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.

OG Jesse Custer from The Preacher comic series, not the sanitized version from the series.

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

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.

I'm going to cheat a little and say Captain Kirk from Star Trek TAS

He is from Iowa. But Spock would be a good Secretary of State (McCoy should be vice president to get the Southern vote).
