This is why I've been saying Kamala should pick Pete Buttigeg for VP. We could have a first and second gentleman at the same time.

Yeah, follow Germany 15 years later. (Angela Merkel as chancellor and Guido Westerwelle as vice chancellor)

[–] flicker@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Guido

oh no

I believe Kamala would also be the first president with no children of their own, but married someone with their own children.

Apparently they call her Mamala, which is adorable.

Washington had no biological children but had multiple step children:

Mamala is very adorable.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

I was not aware of that! Thank you!

[–] Dufurson@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago (2 children)

please, don't look for what it means Mamala in Spanish xD

[–] QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz 6 points 10 months ago

And don't look for what "Kamala" means in Finnish.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Hey, they couldn't sell the Chevy Nova in Spanish-speaking countries either.

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

My favorite counter to the myth about 'Nova' and 'no va' is that in english, you wouldn't refuse to by a dining room set called "Notable".

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I never thought about that. Good point.

[–] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That’s apocryphal. Guess what the word for a stellar nova is in Spanish.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Well TIL. But then I'm guessing they won't have an issue with 'Mamala' in this context either, if they even learn about it.

[–] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 10 months ago

I speak spanish "mamala" means "suck it" I guess some would understand some otgers would.laugh. I didn't make the conection until he mentioned really.

[–] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Yeah, for sure.

[–] DogWater@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I thought it was the El Camino

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 39 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I gotta admit, I had almost no concept of what Jill Biden looked like so I was pretty much "who the fuck is that."

[–] moistclump@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Kinda thought it was Jenna Maroney at first glance

[–] TheOctonaut@mander.xyz 6 points 10 months ago

If American elections are going to descend to the level of chaos that this year has provided, I demand at least ro be compensated by a full, in-character Jenna preferential run.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago

I would love for her to win just so someone can ask Doug at the inauguration "So, who are you wearing?"

[–] Rayspekt@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago
[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

The Onion will have a field day with articles about Mr. Kamala Harris

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I can't wait to see what he does with the Christmas trees! And maybe the other winter holidays won't be just an afterthought shoved in a corner this year.

[–] VaalaVasaVarde@sopuli.xyz 8 points 10 months ago

Looking forward to Christmas Hot Rods

[–] randon31415@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Doug on a mug!

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Weird choice of image for Melania.

[–] RIPandTERROR@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (3 children)

There are significantly less horny pictures of her to choose from.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Is it weird that there are significantly more horny images of her to pick from? I think it's interesting at least.

[–] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

First Bro ayyyyyyyyyyy

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world -2 points 10 months ago

Wouldn't be gentleman since it's a objectively classest term in it's origin and use. Especially is a dude who isn't common and isn't a Lord but of a "good family" which generally meant wealthy and white.
