The Best President Ever
It’s not that hard.
The best President of the United States of America is feeding their dog and taking out the trash. They’ve got a mind that eats steel traps for breakfast and a heart of pure platinum. They work for a corporation they know is taking advantage of them, but they can’t quit. They have responsibilities.
Their family has medical issues and relies on the health insurance partially sponsored by their company. Their handicapped, widowed mom counts on a portion of their income to make rent. They have a knack for solving problems no matter the nature or scope. They have a lot of great ideas, but they can’t risk starting their own company because it’s not just their ass on the line if things go south.
They see what needs to be done and vote when they can for people who will do what they think is right. Those people never do. They say one thing while campaigning and deliver nothing upon election.
This person doesn’t want power for power’s sake. They see through the corporate and political bullshit masquerading as news. They see through the blatant propaganda on social media and subtle brainwashing hiding behind seemingly innocent commercials. They see the injustices wrought by inequality and racism. They feel powerless to do anything about it.
