Will the Insane Clown Posse musicians, Violent Jay and Shaggy 2 Dope, win the POTUS election? No, not as president and vice president. Will they both win the election simultaneously, becoming the first dual presidents in U.S. history?

3.00@shankypanky I have been thinking the same thing. People always talk about the Simpsons predicted Trump's win, but it turns out Homestuck predicted his second win with astonishing accuracy.
@PlasmaBallin And the simpsons received help from seeing him trying to get the reform party nomination
Official case for electing Jay and Dope this November:
https://plasmabloggin.substack.com/p/the-ea-case-for-jay-and-dope-2024
Prediction:
Biden finally heeds the calls to drop out, and the Democratic Party searches for a new nominee by the convention. Violent Jay and Shaggy 2 Dope audition for the nomination, convincing the DNC delegates that they need a miracle to beat Trump, and the ICP are of course the best-positioned to pull it off.
At the same time, the Republicans are looking to pass a Constitutional Amendment to allow for co-presidents. They do this as an attack on Biden - the talking point they give to promote the Amendment is that Biden is so senile that he needs a co-president. What they don't realize is that they had actually orchestrated the victory of the Democratic Party, newly restructured as the Juggalo Party.
Alternative prediction:
Why has Trump spent so long deciding on his VP? Because he can't decide between his two top choices, Violent Jay and Shaggy 2 Dope. Trump has long been a fan of the Insane Clown Posse - why do you think he always acts like an insane clown himself?
Of course, when Trump chooses two VP nominees instead of one, the Democratic Party immediately responds by saying that this is unconstitutional and that he can't have two running mates on the ballot. They sue to force Trump to choose only a single running mate or be removed from presidential ballots if he doesn't comply. The case goes all the way to the Supreme Court, but of course, with a conservative supermajority that is clearly partial to Trump, they rule that the Constitutional had secretly allowed for co-holders of any office all along. The majority opinion, written by Chief Justice Guy Fieri, says that it was actually unconstitutional not to have co-officeholders of every federal office. After all, the Constitution says each state has two Senators, and clearly that was meant to apply to other offices as well.
Just before the election, Trump dies from an overdose of Faygo, leading the ICP to succeed him as nominee.
@shankypanky I think it would be worth them winning and causing the collapse of global civilization just to see this
@PlasmaBallin a small price to pay for that level of entertainment - though I'd argue if there were also representatives of the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party, things might just even themselves out.
But it didn't happen overnight. It was a gradual decline in the integrity of the system that allowed it.
Eventually the wheels came off and the political scene mirrored the absurdity of the media circus.
By the time Presidents Jay and Dope were elected, western civilization had officially fucked itself over forever, and I think everyone knew it.
Oh no.
When does that happen?
2024. The last free election the world would ever see.
So like...
They were on the ticket together? As president and vice president?
No, man.
They were both president.
They were the first Dual-Presidents of the United States of America. Also the last.
They were also the first and last juggalo presidents. The founding fathers warned us about this, but nobody listened.
They did? Warned us about what exactly?
The Mirthful Executives.
George Washington had prophetic nightmares about them. He tried to warn people, and get language amended to the constitution to prevent it.
Like forbidding the election of what he famously described as "a pair of salty bards," or "unruly jesters given to the sweet drink."
But everyone just thought he toked too hard on the colonial cannabis or whatever.
Im not sure i follow. These are like clown presidents or such?
Yes. They were a shitty rap duo from your time.
But they ran a hell of a campaign. By then the juggalo party had gotten huge. While the numerous other candidates split the moderate vote, they retained a very energized and devoted base.
You could say their party had a big tent.
I really dislike the future you are describing.
Hey me too.
They were swept into office on a wave of Faygo, and the presidential inauguration was the biggest Gathering of the Juggalos of all time.
They all hosed each other down on the Whitehouse lawn with shitty soda. The "D.C." in the capital thereafter officially stood for "Dark Carnival."
