Description
I think nearly EVERYone can agree on the subject of this motivational: Politicians SUCK.
No better proof can be found in THIS scene from Transformers II,
in which Galloway, under orders from The President of the United States (who shall not be named for obvious reasons)
wanted to start some bureaucratic nonsense by evicting the Autobots of the planet in "hopes" that teh Decepticons would leave if the Autobots were gone.
YEAH, real smart thinking there. Nothing could POSSABLY go wrong by getting rid of the GOOD Robots, while the EVIL Robots wreck up cities, and toss around humans like fleshy ragdolls.
The funniest thing about this is Optimus expression while Galloway was ranting.
I know he isn't saying anything, but one HAS to wonder what Optimus is thinking.
because he's got that "Silenty Judging You" look, and while Optimus would never say it out loud..he MUST think this guy is without a doubt the stupidest living things he's ever encountered.
When it comes right down to it: "Fighting Decepticons is EASY. dealing with Politicians takes REAL courage."

I have to agree with Prime on this one; politicians are much worse than lawyers...heck, I think they're just lawyers that evolved into something even stupider!

In the upcoming movie, The Last Knight, all people and Autobots together discovered something even more sinister than politicians... OPTIMUS PRIME TURNED AGAINST THEM.

People like to harp on the movie's portrayals of authority figures by saying its unbelievable how dumb they are. Anyone want to imagine what Hillary Clinton will do?

This meme is posted politically neutral.
It can apply to 'Any' politician that anyone dislikes for a given reason,
using the "Galoway" character as an amusing reference/parallel.
regardless, I'd rather this meme NOT be an excuse to discuss ACTUAL politics like a forum thread.
because there has never been an example of a legitimate political discussion that ended well for anyone.
In other words..I'd rather people not talk about Hilary Clinton, or Donald Trump here.
you are free to have your opinions on them during this election year,
but if you must discuss them online..do so on a forum, where people are SUPPOSE to 'rage' at everyone else.
(BTW, I am an 'Independent'
so, I don't go for any of that Republican vs Democrat crap.)

The position of "President" isn't as great as people would like to believe.
I learned from the Book (and, Cartoon Short) "Daffy Duck for President"
that the President can only ENFORCE laws. but, It is Congress that makes the laws.
So, if either candidate wanted 'Total Control' of the country.
then, they should've ran for Congress, as they technically have more power.

Would there really BE a difference between Hitler and Megatron?
Still..It would have been funny if the Autobots landed on Earth during WWII.
if only to see them in 1940s alt. modes

This is why I hated that dickbag from the CIA in the 4th movie so much. I was like "Really? REALLY? YOU HAVE THE GALL TO TRY AND DEFEND YOUR ACTIONS AS BEING IN YOUR PLANET'S BEST INTEREST. WHEN IT'S OBVIOUS YOU'RE IN THIS FOR YOUR OWN SLIMY POLITICAL AND FINANCIAL GAIN?"

yeah, you got a serious point there, and Galloway was the world's biggest dick for saying and doing what he did! (also, this isn't really the first time that Prime's had to deal with Jerk politicians, as you may recall, on Cybertron, with the Caste system, and those Senators that were refusing Megatron's wishes, Optimus [back when he was Orion Pax, I guess we might be going by prime's continuity a bit, even though this is the bayverse, there are some elements of both prime, G1 and even animated in Bayformers] also had to deal with them, and even though they did make him the new leader, they were still just as close-minded as the politicians on earth were.)

Almost reminds me of 'ol "Walter Peck" from Ghostbusters (which the GB's liked to call "Pecker", or "Dickless")
You also have a point with Megatron, and Orion Pax/Optimus.
In the beginning, Megatron was more of a "freedom fighter", than a Warlord.
whose ambitions lie in a Cybertron where ALL bots were equal, and weren't restricted to certain classes.
the origins of this mindset can be found in the stort arc "Megatron: Origins"
where it is revealed Megatron was once just a simple miner called "D-16", who rebelled when a fellow miner was killed by the foreman.
Megatron was sent to the Kaon Pits (in hopes that he would be executed, and give the public some entertainment)
but, as we all know..Megatron dominated the arena. and, achieved a loyal follower in Soundwave (who was hos gladiatorial opponent, whom Megatron spared and offered to train.)
the whole reason Orion Pax and Megatron were "friends" was that Orion agreed with Megatron's ideas of a Free and Equal Cybertron.
he also didn't WANT to be leader (and, for some time insisted that he was just a soldier, and wasn't a "Prime."
but, Megatron was too angry to see it that way, and bitterly left Optimus.
Audio Logs on the Cybertron games sum it up clearly: "They say Megatron created a revolution..but, it was the REVOLUTION that created Megatron."
Optimus also mused that: "In war, Ideas can be corrupted..and, it was thus that Megatron lost his way."
This could apply that over the years, Megatron has forgotten what he was really fighting for.
as now he's more of a Tyrant (no different that the Caste Leaders) than the Hero than he once was.
course, Megatron would never see it that way. you know.."PEACE through TYRANNY", and all that.
