Dunno, man. I’d say Trump is more like Mr. Burns.
Fixed this for you
Not voting for Montgomery Burns.
Burns is so much more competent and successful than trump.
Maybe sideshow Bob would work as trump but even he is probably too good to be equated to trump
Sideshow Bob is actually an eloquent speaker, and is more the psychopathic kinda crazy, not the “Right now, Obama is spying on me through the microwave!”
Just a reminder to our American cousins that in British English, trump means the noise an elephant makes but also to fart: “Sorry I trumped.” Donald the Trump is a noisy noxious unwanted thing on the world stage.
Easier to piss him off by using his “dead name” surname.
As Project Mayhem would say:
His Name is Donald Drumph
I think we need to raid futurama’s characters.
Idk. He’s in that universe since he’d be a presidential head there
Every head including Lincoln and JFK?
Lincoln does. Can’t remember if jfk does
JFK doesn’t. He never appeared, at least not in any of the episodes before the latest reboot. One can only assume that JFK got assassinated in the Futurama timeline as well, so there wasn’t enough of his head to put in a jar.
Lincoln was shot in the back, not the head, so I guess that’s how he got there.
I wonder if McKinley is in the hall.
Or his head/brain is still locked up tightly in that universe
Zapp brannigan Vs. Dr. Fainsworth?
Burns is no fool and trump is a huge fool. A fool with no decency for sure but still a fool.
Is there a treehouse of horror fusion of him and Homer?
But Burns is canonically older than Gramps!
I dunno man, Burns isn’t a fucking dumbass or a useful idiot.
It amazes me that one of the largest countries in the world, with the most diverse demographics, can only chose between two candidates. This is not democracy. It’s a shit show that has been going on for far too long.
America is a one party dictatorship, and in typical American extravagence, it has two of them.
Said by a man who ran a country that outlawed all but the party he was prime minister of. He was probably a little salty about criticism over the lack of democracy in his country.
Tradition and inertia.
The USA is proud to have the oldest and longest-standing written constitution. The fact it hasn’t been rewriteen in a long time help explain why there’s still an electoral college, slavery for prisoners (13th amendements), and weak regulation of campaign finance.
Oldest active constitution is San Marino.
That’s interesting. Thanks for pointing it out.
My point is having a very old constitution isn’t much of a boast if keeping it as-is causes political issues.
Presumably what the other commenter was referring to is the US having the oldest codified constitution
Which is honestly meaningless but very convenient for US narrations. There were also older de facto constitutions, which are usually forgotten like the Henrician Articles of P-L Commonwealth. US constitution is famous because it was the one which was loudly proclaimed and imitated later.
Ok 👍
didn’t you vote in the primary? why not?
Americans got to choose between many candidates, and out of those, it’s down to 6, and of those 6, it’s only really likely 2, that’s true.
But it isn’t quite like you imply.
I didn’t vote in the primary, because I’m not American.
yes, obviously. but the point stands: there wasn’t just two candidates, and you don’t know what you’re talking about.
I understand what you are trying to say. Ultimately, there are only two to vote for. Ideally, there should be more than two parties, and more than two candidates. That’s how democracies work. What you have is a dysfunctional system that divides people in two groups, and there are no incentives to cooperate between parties. Proper voting is also suffering due to the two-party system.
In my country, the parties with the majority of votes and the ability to cooperate gets to form a government. We also try to make it easy to get people to vote, insted of your system of gerrymandering.
there are 6 parties, but only two of the six are large ones at the moment.
Yes I know, but the voting system favours the two largest. Thats why they are large. Small parties have 0% chance og getting representatives into the houses, so they are basically irrelevant.
just as long as you know you’re wrong. 👍
The RNC never intended to run a candidate other than Trump because he controls MAGA, which is what remains of their energized base. The primaries they held were “just in case” Merrick Garland actually did something useful and successfully prosecuted Trump for insurrection, which never came to pass.
The DNC did everything they could to prevent primary elections from occurring in various states, and bullied anyone who was floating a run into submission. This included the state dept making calls to state DNC committees to cancel primaries, or remove certain candidates from their ballots. According to them, it was an insult to Biden admin and their legacy to even suggest another candidate should run. And now look where that’s gotten us.
So no, we didn’t actually vote in primaries this year because the establishment refuses to relinquish the status quo.
The shitty thing is by the time my states primary pretty much every else has dropped out. We need to run the primary like a real election not piecemeal.
Yea, this is a good comparison. A washed up, talentless, lying, cheating, stealing, has-been hack of a clown, or a pretty cool old guy that’s been around the world, has cool stories to tell, loads of wisdom but falls asleep every now and then… like the clown does at court.
Trump is FAR more dangerous than just some clown, you nailed it.
I’d say Sideshow Bob is more apt, only Bob was kind of smart.
How about Snake?
The clown is however also old. And cursed.
has cool stories to tell
Biden has a history of telling crazy stories even before he went senile.
Hasn’t he like… repeatedly claimed that his uncle was eaten by cannibals?
But from him it’s not racist.
Krusty doesn’t deserve this.
Yeah Kristy is better than this dipshit orange, fascism and racism spilling trash can of a human meat bag.
Although Krusty is a decent human being in the show, he is also shown to be a typical out of touch celebrity while kind of trashy still.
Trump is like the classic trashy celebrity so imo it fits more than it doesn’t.
They are both Gramps, Trump is just gramps wearing Kristy makeup.
what’s weird about this is that Trump has been in The Simpsons plenty of times.
Here’s Jeb kicking him in the nuts:
one for the meme:
Serious question why did non of the bushes kick him in the nuts where are these evil fuxks when you need them?
When the Supreme Court had vacancies, W was on the phone with Trump for hours, and provided a short list from the federalist society, They’re getting what they want, no issue with Trump.
The bushes are old money. They punish people by overthrowing the country you live in.
Except Trump is also an old fool. It’s not better to say with clear speaking that he wasn’t responsible for all the things he screwed up, that he didn’t BADLY botch covid response, that he didn’t hand out money, that he didn’t support the vaccine he also took credit for making, that Jan 6 didn’t happen, that Charlottesville didn’t happen, that he didn’t call the neo nazis who killed a person ‘fine people’ that he didn’t stoke violence very intentionally. That he didn’t tell Proud Boys ‘‘stand down and stand by’’ that he isn’t calling for a dictatorship if he ever gets elected.
Yes. Biden has a speech impediment, and clearly struggles with that particularly now that he’s getting quite old. But what he said wasn’t insane claims that reality is in fact not reality.

Well for one, in the press conference when he announced the CDC’s recommendation to wear cloth masks, he emphasized that it was a voluntary measure and then added he wasn’t going to do it. People look to their leaders for guidance. How many people refused to wear a mask despite the CDC’s recommendation because the president felt the need to throw in his own opinion with his experts’ recommendations.
I kinda feel like this is unfair to Krusty…
I’ve never seen anybody do Krusty so dirty. He’s just a depressed celebrity with substance abuse problems. Necessarily a bit shady, probably not a great role model, but there is a human being somewhere under that makeup!
Krusty also sometimes admits he’s wrong and apologizes. He goes back to his old ways soon enough, but it’s a cartoon.
Krusty wears respectable white clown makeup, not that petty orange bronzer. Krusty also grifts with real clown humor with his products that makes people laugh and not the kind of Sick-makes-you barf grifting of cheap bibles and intangible NFTs. Krusty is way younger and nowhere near as crazy.
Even Krusty’s dad eventually loved him.
I know it’s just a meme, but Krusty would be a silly and ineffective president at worst. You’d have to combine the worst traits of many of the shows most horrible characters to create someone similar to trump, and even then I’m not sure any character in that show attempted a coup and sent a mob to attack the Capitol.
I’m from Europe (Hungary) and I watched the first 20 minutes of the debate (with the intent of finishing the whole thing in one go) before turning it off while basically being on the brink of crying. The US presidents basically have as much say in my life as my own government (if not more) and even though I can’t vote for them, if I had to I’d be lost. Because it’s not that one is old and the other is crazy it’s a freaking Venn diagram of crazy RFK jr., demented Biden and then of course crazy and demented Trump. Seeing the debate and how these people basically can’t put two sentences after each other without breaking up is terrifying. And one of them will be voted into the most important office on the planet.
I mean it’s shit over here. We can choose between a guy who already stole half of our country, someone whose messy divorce somehow made him the most important member of the opposition and this other guy who stole the other half of the country before the current dude did. (And that’s just the tip of the iceberg). But maaan are we a lot better off than the world’s greatest country where two unsupervised parties get to point at the people you can vote into this ridiculously powerful position. And then they pick these guys.
We’re all going to die and I can’t even vote for whoever gets us killed, which is ultimately for the better. This way I can die with a clear conscience.
… which is ultimately for the better. This way I can die with a clear conscience.
i envy you and i wish i could say the same thing because i have to vote for biden or else we’ll regress backwards in addition to dying.
Age up the clown some too with some wrinkles, that clown is 78, almost as old as the other guy.
Also poor Krusty, being compared to Trump.
This really is the year of the douche and the turd sandwich
Trump world be Mr burns, Snake or Sideshow bob
Snake is stronger, Sideshow Bob is much more intelligent and Mr. Burns knows how to run a business. Unfair comparison.
Ah fuckin hell
Sideshow Bob is way too smart to be compared to trump
He’s all four at the same time
Immoral, malicious, unhinged
Turd sandwich vs giant douche
Thing is a douche is useful. I giant one is probably also useful in cleaning, industrial or civil applications like sewerage.
I think only flies or dung beetles would be interested in the turd sandwich.
How the fuck Trump is useful?
As fuel? like whale oil maybe.
I was thinking trump was the turd sandwich, but I really don’t understand US politics.
I suspect Joe Bidet is more likely to want to clean out your sewerage system.
