He’s also in his 70s. He won’t live forever
True. Would Stallone be his vp or maybe Dolph Lundgren?Advanced age seems less of an obstacle to US presidential candidates nowadays!
I’m honestly surprised Jon Voight has t played Trump in a daily wire backed production.I have been getting a lot of Republican campaign stuff using Jon Voight in fundraising.
Bruce Boxleitner was very respected in Republican circles.
Gary Gilmore - remember him? He ran for Governor in the election Schwartznager won in.
How about President David Hasselhoff?
Not that unlikely. Bulgaria once elected their former king to Parliament, where he became Prime Minister.Emanuele Filiberto di Savoia, television personality descended from the last king of Italy - having both him and Alessandra Mussolini in Parliament would be meme fuel;
Juxtapose this with a Shared Worlds thread positing Paul McCartney as a Prime Minister, of all things...Supposedly Mick Jagger is something of a politics junkie and aspired to a career in politics before the Rolling Stones took off.
Not that implausible-highly successful name recognition, rags to riches, business brains as well as beauty, charisma and talent-the American Dream!I would have loved to have seen Dolly Parton elected as President
I think there was another TL on here that I recently read - a TLIAW, actually - and it had Paul Newman as president in the early '80s. Unfortunately, he got assassinated by Hinckley in that one.There was a timeline here a while ago where Paul Newman became President in the 1970s that was really good while it lasted.
He also ran in the 1979 mayoral election in San Francisco. (I’m pretty sure I mentioned him in my list.)How about singer Jello Biafra from the band Dead Kennedys? He ran in the primaries for the Green Party for the 2000 presidential election, but lost to Nader.
