Neil deGrasse Tyson for president [View all]

We need someone with a high profile to announce a run for president in 2028. A scientist! A Ph.D. in astrophysics. Someone that will dog the shit out of Trump and Musk and keep pointing out their lies and bullshit. A damn-near atheist to boot that can quote Scripture. A writer of books, a TV personality. A smooth-talking self-deprecator that can win arguments in multiple fields.

Why the fuck not?
