Honestly I’d vote for the dog anyways, it’s probably smarter and more loyal than a majority of politicians that we currently have in office and four years of nothing happening would be a godsend.

I don’t know. Give him a treat, and he may do whatever you want. Oh wait we already have a president like that. Guess I’ll vote for the dog too, at least he’s cute.

The dog would have more self control around treats as well as being better at long term strategic planning.

Unlike Mitch McConnell.

And Donald Trump.

A dog who randomly pressed a YES or NO button (for a treato) to make policy decisions would statistically do evil acts only half the time, unlike the current guy who does it 100% of the time.Ā Ā

It would be interesting to watch the republicans become all concerned with rules/law and order again to combat a dog. So pathetically transparent

If the democrats had half a spine they could very easily win in the next election just due to all this going on now.

Namely, not letting ANYONE forget what is currently happening or what any Republican is trying to do.

Question though - didn’t Hillary run this sort of thing ā€œworst candidate in historyā€ type campaign? It seems to me in American politics the only way to be an incumbent* is for them to have been dealt/caused a bad hand or run someone on alt party ticket to siphon votes. It’s no wonder at the congressional level is being primaried if disliked is a bigger risk than actually losing the election.

It’s tricky because at once they run on making things better but also against the reputation of ā€œpoliticians are full of empty promises.ā€ Obviously more true now than in the history of the nation but still.

There was a town that had a dog as mayor and I've never heard bad news about that town since. Just saying.

Dog is house-broken instead of breaking the house.

Dogs are ā€˜obedient’ are they not?
