More Things You Have To Believe To Be A Republican Today: Presidency From Hell Unfortunately Renewed For Sixth Season

Remember how it all started back in 2016? Presidential Election From Hell was a comedy of inept characters who looked about as threatening as Team Rocket from Pokemon...until it morphed into a horror film, capped off by the shock ending where the buffoonish villain won. Who would approve something like this?

Then they followed it up with four seasons of Presidency From Hell, which was mostly just torture porn starring the bad guys being terrible, and totally unwatchable until Season 3, where the good guys started to have some victories.

Instead of resolving it at the end of Season 4, we instead got Presidential Election From Hell Part II, which turned out to be the high water mark of the franchise, as the villains finally lose and the heroes start to rebuild everything the villains had destroyed.

Sigh...and then, just like with Star Wars in 2012, somebody decided we needed to continue a story that had already been completed. And just to show how unoriginal it was, Presidential Election From Hell Part III was just a lazy remake of Part I, with the same villain coming back and winning again.

Even worse, after that came the unwanted fifth season of Presidency From Hell after a four year hiatus. It's been even worse than the first two seasons, but somebody must like this dumpster fire because, incomprehensibly, now the horror show is entering it's SIXTH season.

And the unoriginality continues--now they're pulling the "Let's Start A War In The Mideast To Distract From the Villain's Other Crimes" plotline. Good grief, a show that only looks better in comparison to this one did the same stupid twist twenty three years ago; it sucked then, it sucks even worse now. For the last decade, it's all been really, completely wretched.

Carried every day on CBS. And everywhere else!

. . . .

Slight non sequitur, but since I brought it up in a previous list:

"I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them."

---Adali Stevenson II, Democratic Presidential Nominee in 1952 and 1956

Thanks to Bill In Portland on Daily Kos for the information.

* Bombing fishing boats, sending your secret police to harass random brown people, trying to get TV hosts fired for making fun of your, locking children in cages, starting wars in your own cities, and invading foreign countries to steal their oil are accomplishments worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. (#73, Dec 2025)

* You show how strictly you follow the Constitution by wanting to ignore the First, [LINK:https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220957085|Fourth], Fifth, Eighth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Sixteenth, and Twenty-Fifth Amendments; and especially the Emoluments Clause. (#1, November 2010)

* Bill Clinton was a draft dodger for not serving in Vietnam. But it was okay for John Bolton, Pat Buchanan, George W. and Jeb Bush, Dick Cheney, Tom Delay, Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh, Dan Quayle, Willard Mitt Romney, Tom Tancredo, Clarence Thomas, and Donald Trump to not go. (#1, November 2010)

* Relevant: Jeffrey Epstein hung out with Bill Clinton a few times. Irrelevant: Jeffrey Epstein's twenty-year friendship with Donald Trump (#40, Sept 2019)

* You think mail-in voting is dangerous and potentially fraudulent except when you do it. (#44, July 2020)

All-New More Things You Have To Believe To Be A Republican Today:

* The Republicans refused to extend subsidies to the ACA, which learly means the massive healthcare premium increases are Democrat's fault.

* You loudly support term limits...but keep running for re-election so you can stay in office longer than the limits you advocate.

Until next time...
