ULTIMATE ROCK BATTLE

[GoodEnoughForMe]

Folks, I know we've been through a lot lately. But I come to tell you, the night is darkest before the dawn. The Internet Age is ending, and with it, is about to come... a brand new Stone Age.

There are two entries in this ring.

The first is pre-eminent racist and homophobe who also adores elements of black culture that he can monetize, KID ROCK, whose senate run in Michigan is in HIGH GEAR.

The 2nd is the MUCH RUMOURED AND NOW CLOSER TO REALITY Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who has launched a campaign committee to explore a presidential run in 2020.

YOU MUST CHOOSE ONE ROCK TO LEAD US INTO BATTLE

Make your choice carefully, then explain why.

 

[Ajidica]

The ROCK Obama.

 

[Valka D'Ur]

Could either of them possibly be worse than what you have now?

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

Kid Rock could be every bit as bad, luckily he's running for Senator and not president.

The Rock right now has been firmly noncommittal to any policy position so you can project whatever you want on him.

 

[Narz]

Both awful. Why would be a self-obsessed, self-promoting celebrity be useful for public service?

 

[Lohrenswald]

Never heard of Kid Rock before tbh

And I hardly know anything about Johnson

 

[EgonSpengler]

I can't stand Kid Rock's music. As for The Rock, I thought The Rundown was underrated, but I haven't seen anything he's done in the last 12 years. In politics... meh. Whatever. After this last election, I have lost all faith in the American electorate. Clearly, we'll elect any twit for anything.

Thankfully, Harper can't run for office in the US, so we're probably safe from it being worse.

 

[Kyriakos]

Worst rocks ever

 

[warpus]

I predicted that The Rock was going to be president, so I have to vote for him now

 

[Broken_Erika]

Chris Rock 2020!

 

[shadowplay]

Bebop/Rocksteady 2020

I'd vote for The Rock to become the first shirtless president.

 

[Traitorfish]

Both awful. Why would be a self-obsessed, self-promoting celebrity be useful for public service?

The Rock has an insane work ethic. That's got to be an improvement over Baron Harkonnen, whose idea of leadership is to spend his days golfing and leave all the policy details to a white supremacist.

 

[Kyriakos]

Bebop/Rocksteady 2020

I'd vote for The Rock to become the first shirtless president.

Krang 2020. Or to be precise: Krang/Krang's Android Body -- because Krang cannot run without his android body.
Get it?

Ty, i'll be here all night long...

So if Trump = Vladimir Harkonnen, which of his sons is Beast Rabban, and which of his offspring is "Feyd... lovely Feyd..."?

If you go by the Lynch movie, the obvious analogy would be the underage son, Barron Trump. The only practical possibility would be Ivanka. After all, she's already being allowed to sit in her daddy's presidential chair, and there photos of her in the Canadian media, making goo-goo eyes at our Prime Minister.
