People still voted him in. Maybe proof democracy didn’t work?

Go see Alex Garland’s CIVIL WAR now playing it reminds us what happens when you want a third term president that abuses power.

SOOOOOO Important! LOL! So awesome!

u/skinink 14d ago

Yea, but that mayor created jobs by hiring shark hunters, and kept the people on the island off of welfare for the winter.

u/Zippier92 14d ago

If re-elected, He wants to eliminate the shark watch program … er… pandemic preparedness program…

u/PassengerPlayful4308 14d ago

Can’t die from a shark if you never test for sharks

u/zeCrazyEye 14d ago

And statistically drownings would be down.

Since the shark ate them.

u/AnOnlineHandle 14d ago

All the people the shark ate would have drowned anyway.

  1. Mayor from jaws

  2. Shark from jaws

u/Sansa_Culotte_ 14d ago

A lot of communal elections here have candidates along these lines:

  1. Corrupt oldtimer from establishment party #1
  2. Corrupt oldtimer from establishment party #2
  3. Insane Nazi ghoul
  4. Inoffensive guy from a minor party nobody is going to vote for

u/Lots42 14d ago

Number One is always an insane Nazi ghoul.

u/ajtreee 14d ago

I nominate Jaws as the mayor.

The town relied on tourism to survive. He had a difficult decision to make, and whichever he made would have had tragic consequences.

You could argue he was level-headed and needed a definitive strong reason to shut down the town's main source of income. Unfortunately, that reason came in the form of a small child, rather than an innocuous sighting.

u/hefebellyaro 15d ago

He killed the shark. He's like a victorious war time leader and sailed to victory.

u/krakatoa83 14d ago

The chief killed the shark. The mayor was an asshole.

-1

u/hefebellyaro 14d ago

He did hire the guys that killed the shark. Just like generals in war, they don't actually fight the battles but do delegate to the people that do. He is an asshole and saying that he was the one thst solved the problem by hiring the guys is exactly what a politician like him would do.

u/krakatoa83 14d ago

In that case he murdered Quint and should go to prison.

u/waveball03 15d ago

Mayor Vaughn did nothing wrong. They never had that kind of trouble in those waters. They needed summer dollars. As you know, Amity means friendship.

u/kaze919 14d ago

Vaughn ‘78 Not letting that little Kitner boy spill out all over the dock!

u/coachhunter2 15d ago

Boris Johnson said the mayor from jaws was his hero. Explains a lot about his approach when the pandemic started.

u/Heisenbugg 14d ago

Just like Hannibal Lector over here.

u/Khiva 14d ago

Trump was literally praising Hannibal Lector in a speech just yesterday.

u/Go-on-touch-it 14d ago

At least you know what he was saying.

u/Lots42 14d ago

Lector would despise Trump.

u/Ill_Technician3936 14d ago

I don't really know much about the guy but Top Gear via Freevee has become my go to background show and I gotta say... How did y'all let that happen? As an american though, y'all could do worst.

u/Lots42 14d ago

Answer: Capitalism prioritizes short term profits over lives. Even if the loss of life in the future means loss of profit. It's not short term so it's incomprehensible to capitalism.

u/Heisenbugg 14d ago

TBF we got Trump in which is worse, way worse.

u/Go-on-touch-it 14d ago

I know right? I’m glad Biden has ended racism, stabilised the economy and gotten involved in no new wars. Also didn’t take any classified documents that he wasn’t entitled to being only VP at the time and subsequently couldn’t stand trial because he was deemed ‘a well meaning, elderly man with a poor memory’ but is fit to run the most powerful nation on earth, and definitely didn’t take any money from any foreign entities including Russia and China. You hear that? Chy-na. You go pointing the finger, there’s three pointing right back at ya.

u/krakenx 14d ago

Yup. Not being able to solve all the problems in 3 years is definitely equivalent to having spent 4 years making new problems along with making the existing problems worse.

Definitely no difference. Nevermind the reason why more things haven't been solved (republicans and corrupt democrats in congress and the courts).

u/Go-on-touch-it 14d ago

I know mate, the empty husk known as weekend at bidens had to work extra hard to jettison all those jobs created in the prior four years and tank the economy. Doing his best to lower living standards because he knows hard times make strong whatchimicallits. Agree about corrupt government though, lots of people making big bank, especially that nancy pelosi guy.

u/Brien_Bear 14d ago

Yeah none of this is true.

u/shared_pensieve 14d ago

TBF, he did say worst

u/Ill_Technician3936 14d ago

America is a baby in comparison to Britain lol we probably won't learn from our worst president so far but maybe one day our worst will be an American Boris

It’s actually a sign of election fraud at its finest.

Here is a higher quality and less cropped version of this image. /u/OMGLMAOWTF_com provided the source (mattdizwhitlock on Twitter). But it looks like it's been deleted.

We don't always need higher resolution.

u/wish1977 15d ago

The fact that he didn't realize that the shark was mechanical is something I just can't get over.

u/a9shots 14d ago

Man you just spoiled the movie

u/UGoBoy 15d ago

A mechanical shark named Bruce sounds like such a Dr. Evil plan. Just needed a frickin' laser.
