Lindsay Lohan Announces Her Intention to Run for President in 2020

We’re just going to come right out and say it: This apparent free-for-all for the Presidency of the United States is all Donald Trump’s doing. First Kanye West, and now, Lindsay Lohan has announced her bid for the highest office in the free world.

In a series of bizarre posts on her Instagram page, she summarized her presidential image in three photos: The first is a #tbt of her at the 2012 White House Correspondent’s Dinner—we’re guessing this lends a little legitimacy to her bid because hello, she’s already set foot and broken bread in the White House before. In her caption, she also drops a hashtag that reads “#34yearsofEXPERIENCE,” but doesn’t really specify what kind of experience she actually has.

Next up is a photo of herself with her potential competition Kanye West. This shows that La Lohan is fearless when it comes to public rivalry. She also hints that by virtue of having set foot in the UK, Queen Elizabeth has already shown Lindsay what her first act as President of the United States should be: to “take care of all of the children suffering in the world.” And to show you that she really does mean all children of this world, she included all four skin colors in her choice of fist bump emojis to represent the youth across different nations.

Lastly, to emphasize how truly serious she is about making the world’s children a priority, she posts a photo collage of herself carrying a child in India, spliced with a photo of Mahatma Ghandi with the quote: “If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.”

It’s over, people. She just invoked the power of GHANDI.

While the rest of the world isn’t exactly taking her seriously, there’s a good chance that LiLo is just using the presidential race to garner some serious attention for her showbiz comeback. After all, if there’s one thing Donald Trump has accomplished since announcing his presidential bid, it’s how to write the book on free publicity.
