Nausicaa president

Saitama vice

Wile E. Coyote should be US president

He would just spend all his time pursuing the Roadrunner instead of doing imperialism. He would have all the resources of the military-industrial complex at his disposal to that end, but he would just keep crashing F-35s into cliffs and shit chasing the Roadrunner. And his vice president and cabinet would be no better - all hand-picked cronies from the Acme corporation's revolving door with the government, only there to help President Coyote devise new contraptions to catch the Roadrunner with.

let's be honest, most products from the military industrial complex of the u.s. deserve the "acme" brand.

[–] HiddenLayer555@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 month ago

No, Acme products are cost effective. The US military industrial complex is anything but.

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 ?

[–] AnnaFrankfurter@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So no difference from current situation we are in.

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.

Senator Chris Zaxar Travers.

Wait, who are we voting for?

Who did I say I was gonna vote for?

Why did Trump run uncontested?

[–] lattrommi@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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.

King Bob, from Minions. We have to run through the RGB spectrum. Green would be Shrek, blue would be James P Sullivan
