My villain choice: Lex Luthor
My hero choice: The Martian Manhunter
Do you realize how much power Lex would have to give up to be President?
Lex Luthor.
Sure, he wants to kill Superman, that's not the best political stance, but other than that he'll basically just focus on fixing everything else that slows society down in order to have a society that's better at killing Superman.
Plus it's not like he's successful at killing Superman. So really it's a win-win.
I don't know, isn't he some ultraliberal technobroligarch that would experiment on the poor under the guise of affordable healthcare ?
So no difference from current situation we are in.
That is what I was getting at

There are many, many cartoon characters I would vote for over Trump, all the way down to other villainous incompetents like Dick Dastardly or Elmer Fudd.
NausicaΓ€ of the Valley of the Wind
E: Always forget the diacritical marks
Scrooge McDuck (Duck Tales version). Dude knows how to manage people and balance a budget. Sure he might occasionally get obsessed with some treasure in the middle east but that's no different than most presidents.
if i wanted to destroy the u.s., i'd vote for ralph wiggum.
if i wanted someone better than most presidents since lincoln, i'd vote for the lenin mummy from the simpsons.
Jesus of Nazareth
Do comic books count? If yes I'd say Spider Jerusalem from Transmetropolitan. If no, General Hunter Gathers from Venture Bros or Dale Gribble from King of the Hill. Maybe Uncle Duke from Doonesbury.

Franziska von Karma. I was going to say Miles Edgeworth, but... let's face it, there are plenty of foolish fools in need of a whipping right now. π
(I know she's really a "game character", but she was in the anime, so she still counts. π§ββοΈ)

King Bob, from Minions. We have to run through the RGB spectrum. Green would be Shrek, blue would be James P Sullivan
Someone even more incompetent so he can destroy the USA quicker but less likely to push the nuke button.
Griffith, he is just so charismatic and determined. And those CURLS
Your average Griffith enjoyer
Professor X. He's already responsible with even more power, and this way people would choose to listen to him.
Bill Cipher
Satsuki Kiryuin, fuck it she might get our shit together.
Just for the comedy that might ensue from how horrible of a president he'd be, my vote is Principal Dr. Cinnamon J. Scudworth with Buttlertron as his VP.
Either that, or if possible, as a slightly more serious answer, why not have someone like an actual scientist like Professor Professor from The Secret Show with Name Changed Daily as the VP ( or vice versa )? They already run a not-so-secret spy organization, so why not?
