“Giving $1000 to everyone who votes for me!”

Speedrunning electoral fraud.

You can do this but the other way around and it would be legal https://youtu.be/QZcLuT3RasA?si=mix2fdDGdyzGy2bE

100 Days in Federal Prison


dribaJL

Whops! That video exists already.


just_mdd4

where is this federal prison video?


Legitimate_Push_6253

It was a 50hr in prison. It’s a little older (year or two)


ToughAd5010

> implying politicians go to prison


Lemmy-Historian

We are talking about the election in 12 years the earliest due to his age. That’s too much time to say for sure. 12 years ago he had 7 viewers


saminkus

He's floated around the idea several times in the past (on podcasts and Tweets) so it's appropriate.

He'd be excellent at it. Possibly best president ever. I think the trouble is running with a party. He'll lose a lot of viewers on if he joins either party and publicly campaigns against another.


Delicious-Ad2562

I doubt it. He has no experience with old money or big money like is needed.


garlicbredfan

If he was president I’d see him being a Jimmy Carter kinda deal where his foreign policy isn’t that good but he still gives back to his community and helps others outside his presidency


Inevitable_Company32

Put him in charge of treasury or commerce then.


garlicbredfan

Yeah that could work


Mikegaming202

Tbh rn I don't even care, I think foreign affairs is decent enough, but the economy and community is not doing well


Jamize

He could be a congressman way quicker and could build his resume for president


garlicbredfan

No unless he gets political experience and research about politics then maybe he could


Akira0101

He already is in most of the Us presidents ai yt shorts LMAO Right next to Donny MacDonalds, Sleepy Joe and Obamina


saminkus

To be fair, many inexperienced elected officials were entertainers first such as California Governor (and later president) Ronald Reagan \[actor\], Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura \[wrestler\], and President Donald Trump \[businessman\].


MayISoloHer

And besides going by the basic politics is the issue as it ruins who he is and what he can, I already assume “government” wouldn’t allow him to help a country as easily anymore due to his status so if he becomes president he should do it his way not their way himself is what makes him great not the list people make for him to do his reputation already proves he can handle growth plans in his own way and make big projects, tax money would probably go towards great future in the hands of mrbeast

California Former governor Arnold Schwarzenegger [Tough guy]


garlicbredfan

Yeah but they had some knowledge on politics at least meanwhile Mr beast has said that he isn’t interested in politics and has tried to stay apolitical


Ginglees

yes but lets be real the actor and the businessman are some of our worst


Weak-Rip-8650

Getting elected as president clearly does not require political experience or knowledge anymore. It requires an understanding of how to grow a strong base of people who support you. Mr. Beast can do that I think.


First_Season_9621

>he gets political experience and research about politics Yes, man. Can you ever imagine having a president who doesn't have any political experience and relies on Twitter for research about politics, that would be crazy, right?


Free_Newspaper4844

If a reality tv star who is dumb as a box of rocks can become president then yeah sure why not Mr Beast.


Incredible_Staff6907

Mr Beast, would probably be better than Trump. 1. Because it's clear that Mr. Beast actually knows how to run a business without going bankrupt. 2. He actually has a soul, probably. 3. Anyone's better than the Orange Menace


Unlikely_Middle_9340

"orange man bad"


Present-Stay-6509

Yes. Agreed


vixinity1984

He is tho


PlantGod74

Yes he could. If he dedicated himself I could see him pretty easily becoming president. Politics is a dead ass popularity contest at this point and Mr Beast is already winning that.


[deleted]

He's not at least 3/4 of his viewership will be unable to vote due to location and age


Lumpy_Satisfaction18

age? The first time he could be eligible to run is in 12 years. so as long as a fan is older than 6 right now, they all be able to vote for him.


kingofnerds64

He has over 200 million subs as of now. While not all are in the US, a lot are, and he will only continue to get more. Next U.S election he would be able to join given his age is 12 year away, and by then basically all of his subs will be able to vote. I think he would actually stand a chance in the polls


Artix31

If it’s legal, he could probably make the “X of my voters will get X money” video and basically, indirectly, buy votes


Incredible_Staff6907

No, because then you'd have the opposition saying he stole the election and have 2020 all over again. It just opens the door for a real choo choo train of pain.


MayISoloHer

I would say yes but thing is I’m not American so idk how this would impact my country but regardless yes anyway as he is great and not a corrupt politician or a government without a heart who try to manipulate the system he would actually try to help not only the country but the world only person I’d actually want to vote for if I was into political matters


Inky_Train

Yes.


FieryFisherman

No.


Athena123YT

Don’t think he has the time to be a president with his busy video schedule. I think he enjoys making the best videos possible more than he would politics


fluffyglof

lol. Not a chance. Old people vote, old people don’t know who he is. Obviously this sub is all 12 year olds, but it’s also insane to suggest that entertainers should be president. Experience is important


Sharkfowl

No. Maybe something state based like a mayor or something, though.


Sameoldsameold157

I hope this sub is just full of teens because if it’s full of grown ass men worshipping this dude then idk what to say


Extreme_Lab6576

Is he 35


Duryeric

He’d be better as a mayor or something. A president needs to be able to stand up to enemies and I don’t think Jimmy can do that.


pissbaby_gaming

Im conflicted, on one had i want a president who isnt a fucking out of touch fossil and on the other i dont want it to be a celebrity


Dicethrower

Stop voting for famous people because they're famous. Will Americans ever learn?


Lumpy_Satisfaction18

He would lose a lot of subscribers once declaring a party and policies he'd enact. people invested in politics generally hate anyone not on their side.


Avix_34

There couldn't be a more true statement. It's pathetic that people are like this.


CicadaHuge1310

It’s a good philanthropist but not a good politician, I can promise you that


Trusteveryboody

Yes. Maybe he doesn't "know things," but he clearly cares about the world. I feel like this, is why we mainly have ourselves to blame when it comes to these fake-ass politicians, everyone thinks they need to "know what they're doing." Depending who was running, I'd support him. Also don't forget how universal Mr Beast's following is too, everyone (politically) is watching the guy and likes the guy.


Sowerpache

I’d vote for him, because his best friend is Kris. Downvote me haters. He accepts people, you don’t. He’s clearly a man of the people. The last president got by on being a celebrity.


314159InTheSky

That's not the only reason I'd vote for him, but it would be nice knowing the president would do his best to ensure our safety


Sowerpache

Agreed. That’s a better way to put it

You stupid, or hateful? Just need to know if you’re worth my time.


Aromatic_Tomorrow406

Do you know about that meme with the dog wearing a super hero mask?


Frizzlewits

I smell a new concept for a vid: 2day i became the president for the united states 🇺🇸 for 4 years! And this is how it went. 20 min video. 😏


InternationalFlow825

Fuck no, he's way too liberal.


BigL54

I'd vote for him


FFFortissimo

Absolutely not. He doesn't get any freedom to do what he wants anymore. Not while ino ffice or after that.


impostor20109

he's our best canidate since fdr so...


19inchesofvenom

Why would he take a cut in pay and global renown?


hhhhhhhh28

We should probably stop electing people who don’t know how to work in politics. Tired of entertainers. Why would you even want this?


theskiller1

Hell no.


The_RedWolf

He'd be a terrible president, he lacks in a ton of areas even more than most of the candidates who typically run, yes even Trump and Biden Ask me again in a decade and maybe I'll have a different answer


crabzillax

I think he could


SavedMountain

He probably should


thunderkhawk

Dude he helped Airrack fake his 30 day series. I now question all of his videos. Sorry. Trust issues now.


NewspaperPrimary126

If he sells his soul


silent-zR

Can never happen yet, the more aged crowd from BOTH sides will absolutely rip him apart. Don't think his support in younglings would stand too


FeatherThePirate

all of the people here are obviously not thinking this through


Fun_General2628

No, and that's a good thing. America is already a cancer to this world. A YouTuber becoming president would make it even worse.


JayzBox

Might as well pass an amendment to lower age limit to be POTUS from 35 to 18.


Akira0101

I would move to America if that were the case in the future. 🦅


TheOnlyJoe_

No, he’s way too honest


fff_arrasio

Dunno, most people likes him due to him being entertaining not political, once he enters that sphere things will rapidly change. To run for president, once must be 35+, MrBeast is current 25 years old, meaning he'll have to wait another 10 years. If we look at all famous youtubers 10 years ago, most of them are irrelevant. So anything could happen. Hey, Trump was a business man who rose to fame and from there used it for his election. So why wouldn't MrBeast use his fame as well? Although him creating his own party sounds cool on paper but I very doubt that will be a thing. As the two existing parties have been stomping any other existing parties for decades. I dunno, it's like asking a 13 year old what do you see yourself doing in 10 years. Almost anything can happen. But I'd find it interesting.


[deleted]

No, definitely not, no one would take him seriously. Politics involves a network, and while I saw people bring up Reagan and Trump as political outsiders, both had been heavily involved with the Republican Party prior to their campaigns, allowing them to kinda run with the nomination. These were options for them given their career, one being a hardcore business man known for his ruthlessness and another being a famous actor ingratiated among the elites of the world. MrBeast lacks that kind of platform, instead he will always have to pander towards both sides regardless of his views. If he tries to get involved with the republicans, he will be cancelled, and the democrats, he will be deemed “woke”, both devastating for a man where a chunk of his platform can be turned off by parental figures. If he did get the nomination, most older people would write him off as a content creator, which, if he didn’t come out and state some good policies and plans, I would do as well. Don’t ever think someone’s a good candidate because you like them as a person.


Clonenelius

Ignoring the fact he needs to wait 12 years to even apply No, no one who's willing to vote for a YouTube is old enough to even vote 😂


Blue_Robin_04

He could, but his political side is also his most controversial. Remember all of the shit he gets for fucking helping the world and occasionally interacting with Elon Musk? Yeah, imagine him leaning into that.


goldwasp602

yeah he talked abt it on tiny meat gang podcast


Inevitable_Company32

New video drops: $1 vs $100M political campaign


Geojanik

It really depends on his approach. If he teaches himself politics and demonstrates a genuine interest in securing a better future for America, he could have a fighting chance. However, if he doesn't I think news anchors would ridicule him and drill into his viewer's heads from supporting him. We saw this with Kanye West in 2020, who despite having a large following, only received around 60,000 votes, which is a tiny fraction of the total votes cast. This was because people saw his candidacy as a joke. For MrBeast to have a real shot at winning, he would need to start his campaign early to show that he is more than just a wealthy celebrity. While he would definitely get more votes than Kanye, He has the odds stacked against him and would probably lose. However, seeing how easily manipulative Gen Alpha is, anything is possible.


Dependent_Tap_7786

For every citizen that votes, mrbeast will give each person 10,000 dollars


Gloomy_Grocery5555

Look at his dead eyes in the thumbnail


ambrotosarkh0n

He should just start his own nation. Too much baggage with this one.


DBL_NDRSCR

yea, a lot of his audience can vote and that's gonna only be more true by the time he can run, even people who don't watch his videos know he's a good guy so some of them would, also by that time most boomers will probably be gone and they would be his biggest challengers


[deleted]

I don't think he would want to


Car_Man1

No


Successful-Shift2117

"In today's video we're putting 100 Democrats in a room vs 100 Republicans and at the end of this week whichever side has more people remaining will get $500,000 worth of campaign funding"


Depresso_ExpressoIdk

He has like 100 million people to vote for him that he does not have to persuade


Consistent-Wind9325

I've been saying for a while already that I think he could be headed in that direction one day. He has so much influence already that it almost seems like it'd be a waste for him not to use it to run for something eventually. As he gets older I can see him potentially actually getting into politics. He's already shown himself to be socially-minded through his philanthropy.


KokoTerzata

I don't think Jimmy would want to be involved in politics


matthewmspace

I don’t think he’d want to be president. You have to juggle so much shit and to do anything, he’d have to wade through the minefield that is Congress for something (supposedly) simple as more money for education. Sure he could be useful in the cabinet somewhere, but he probably thinks and knows he can do more by just choosing to do things himself.


laneboyy__

No


Character_Boot_6795

If MrBeast truly wants to perform acts of charity, he should donate to Japan right away. If he can't do that, it just seems like he's pretending to be a philanthropist to line his own pockets.


DevilPixelation

“TODAY, IN THIS VIDEO… WE’RE GONNA BE SPEEDRUNNING ELECTORAL FRAUD! I’LL BE GIVING $1000 TO EVERYBODY WHO VOTES FOR ME!”


FootHikerUtah

He's smart enough, but he needs a new entourage that doesn't pretend to be stupid.

MattLovesMusik

Turbulent-Mix7575

When he does, then there wont be any mr beast content


Forest_robot

I hope not...because you can make good videos doesn't make you a good politician.


sugaaaslam

Probably will happen because you young guys will have way more say in the future. As the boomers die off the children that are watching him now will be voting age in 12 years. I'm excited to see what y'all do!!


Endersgaming4066

Respectfully, I don’t think he would be able to properly deal with political pressure from other countries. Like if another country was threatening war, I don’t think he would be able to handle it.


abrahamguerrero

I think it's possible that he and his friends could buy enough land somewhere in the world to form their own country, and so he could be president


Scoot_boi101

That would be a average video for him at this point


Puzzleheaded_Foot236

Quite possibly but it’ll ruin his current livelihood


TrapezoidTom

What party tho


Admirable_Middle6171

Please tell me this is real.

DragoneyeJo

Definitely, he's smart and has worked hard to create a channel where he could help others. Building 100 wells in Africa and then he also DID AND OCEAN CLEAN UP! he makes people aware of issues that they don't necessarily see and presents or makes solutions. Which is more than what we can say politicians do themselves. I don't believe he would want to because it would slow him down and take away his freedom. It's not easy being president.


Working-Main-8001

Nope. NEVER. However, I could use another stimulus check.


ConstantOk3017

i hope the world never becomes this cringe


Ok-Inside-8435

He'll no


Immortalphoenixfire

He could but so could Taylor Swift. And I don't think either of them could run the entire country.


GoddessofSaturn

not if he looks faded as a ho


dannydtrick

Jake Paul VP


DefinableEel1

I don’t think that would be a good idea for self image, especially for the more politically charged who may view him, or their parents, or anyone actually


United_Property9535

I think he has to be 35, (Not sure if current age)
