Would Captain America support Donald Trump for President?

I think he would. They are both from Brooklyn, they are both big time Patriot, and they both do whatever needed to get the job done!

No. Cap has dedicated his life to fight against racist, intolerant, lunatics.

Ultimate Cap would.

No, Steve is the son of immigrants and not a total hypocrite.

No. 616 Cap is a hardcore liberal, same as is flag waving DC counterpart superman. Batman would.

I was going to say that too.

Doubtful considering he has the "not voting for Trump starter kit" comes with the following -

A brain, a conscience, morals, and common sense.

Btw: saw this in Ifunny, not trying to hate on anyone.

So is Trump. Son of an immigrant I mean not the hypocrite thing.

@sacredweapons: @linsanel_doctor: @theexile285: Wow! I think this is the most people that have ever quoted me. Makes me smile! :)

yes

LOL.

@tg1982: I'd do it if I wasn't typing on mobile.

@jonny_anonymous: the hypocrite thing is the more essential part there.

I'm saying this, and I usually vote Republican. Except in 2000. Ain't THAT a kick in the pants?

Odyssey: Oculus

Both Trump and Rogers would agree that Red Skull loves national access to digital cable.

Media is the source to news.

Yeah, he would.

LOL. No.

*Cough*

Logically, a patriotic 1940s American would

Ult. Cap for sure would

Ah, I think you have Cap confused with your average paper-skinned millenial crybaby. He'd probably at least consider Donald's arguments, rather than complaining about how the mean racist hurt his feewings. But, that's just my opinion

@bullettimer: your average "paper-skinned millennial crybaby" is the main benefactor to Donald's prepositions. The whole point is that Cap is someone who believes in equal chance throughout all people and Donald is acting as if the foreigners,other wise known as the non Aryan, are the literal homophobia version of Ebola. I don't remember there being a comic about captain america agreeing with Hitler's points but I do remember quite a few where punches Nazis in the face and I believe that's what would happen with Donald. But hey that's just MY opinion.

In the 1940s they had the most liberal president we have ever had, Franklin D Roosevelt. Roosevelt was to Democrats what Reagan is to Republicans. His policies were so far to the left that he makes Barack Obama look like a Republican in comparison. After Roosevelt there was Truman, another Democrat. That comment only shows your ignorance when it comes to American history.

No, he isn't. Saying things like "Donald is Aryan Nazi who is mean to everyone :(" is exactly that kind of knee-jerk buzzword spouting behaviour that is seen predominantly people our age today, and exactly the kind I reckon Cap would avoid. Note that I am not saying that Steve would vote for him, but he certainly wouldn't call Trump a Nazi just because Buzzfeed or Huffpost told him to do so.

Your comment shows your ignorance when it comes to politics in general, or the meaning of the world "liberalism". You have to consider the fact that social liberalism and economic liberalism are two very different things, and being one doesn't mean being the other. First of all, "Liberal" today =/= "liberal" pre-1960s. If you think that 1940s economic liberalism = today's progressive BS, and if you think that a candidate like FDR with his policies works in 2016 just as he did in WW2, then you really have to go back to the drawing board... but I'm gonna assume you know a little about politics and know that's not the case. FDR was elected because of several things, first, in his first week back (just a he promised) he ended Prohibition. Then there was World War 2, during which America needed a leader it could rely on. His New Deal was an economically liberal move that everyone saw as being something that would help the country financially. FDR also used that act of his as a means to enlarge the Federal government, something that republicans saw as a way increase their own wealth and power. The same "Alien Enemies Act" that Trump is citing to ban Muslims entering the country is exactly the same one that your beloved FDR used to deport Japanese, German and Italian immigrants during World War II. So, let's see, wants America to be great, patriotic, wants to deport those who would threaten his country... hardly Bernie Sanders we're talking about, is it? Looking at the candidates today, Cap would go for either Trump or Ben Carson. I'm sure if FDR somehow existed Cap would go for him, but he doesn't, so tough.

@invain:

@bullettimer

Assuming that i cant create my own opinions because someone has a similar opinion does not make your point correct. Most of Donald Trumps campaign is based of making life easier for the Upper-Middle class otherwise known as the predominately white area. He is deporting foreigners, Discrediting current racial movements, and overall making His ideal america. This doesn't help the hard working "Non Americans" or even the low income Americans other than his tax reform idea. So as a recap. Trump has an idea of america that has been created from being at the top and believing its not hard to get what you want. But realistically most people know it is hard to get what you want, And regardless of that people move into a country and learn one of the hardest langues in the world to learn just to create a better life for themselfs. And when they do all that he wants to kick them out of the country. Im not saying he is the only one with this idea, But I will say it is a toxic way of thinking. And considering we are talking about the guy who would rather let the universe be destroyed then to kill billion of people he knew nothing about, I think cap would agree. But I am not cap and cant speak for him, I can only assume from what I've seen from him.

Why does socal liberalism matter? Who cares what the hipsters are bitching about, the policies are what is important. Cap would vote for the people who have the policies of taxing the rich and lowering the taxes on the poor to create equality, not the people that want to tax the hell out of the middle class making it to the point that it does not really excited anymore. Before Reagan started giving the Rich tax breaks and taxing the middle class a middle class family used to have one working member. That is impossible now but it is also due to middle class people making as much money. In the 1940s the biggest company in America was Ford and payed workers a equivalent of what would be 52 dollars a hour today. Today the biggest company is Walmart and they pay workers on average 8. The Democrats are the ones that want to raise minimum wage and help the poor to create equality.

All my time in comic shop I find online comic readers to be very very very different.

Great scan..do y'all use a scanner because those be amazing..I was wondering why people said ultimate Cap would? I think it's the idea he's more violent...not xenophobic

I don't think Captain America would support ANYONE for President- as that is above his "pay grade" and would amount to politicalization of his role as a super hero.

Of course whoever is ELECTED President( and notional Commander in Chief) is a horse of another colour- Cap has worked with Democratic Presidents such as FDR and Harry S.Truman, Carter, Clinton and more recently Barack Obama as well as Republicans like Nixon, Ford, Reagan and both Bushes!

Wrong. He'd have support one man...

No he WOULDN'T- he even refused a third party nomination for President in Captain America#250. I can;t imagine Cap(whatever his faults) getting down and dirty in the nosh pit of party politics!

truth stranger than fiction?

I don't think he would care about politics to be honest. Never was the political spectrum of the US a part of his character and I couldn't imagine it would start now. Besides, he is too busy fighting weird monsters with super powers.

However, the Falcon does support Trump

http://www.bet.com/news/celebrities/2015/10/19/anthony-mackie-endorses-donald-trump-he-worked-his-way-up-from-nothing.html

He'd probably support Hitler for president.

Hail Hydra

no because he's actually a smart guy....in saying that he would also not support Hillary because he would see right through her corruption.

"Normal" Steve Rogers, never.

"Actual" Steve Rogers, well, Hail Hydra! So yes

Absolutely not.

Realistically, he wouldn't answer that kind of question, but there would be a lot of people who would try and twist him to be for one side or the other... much like they wrote it back when Cap was dead and when Thor had been talking to a ghost.

But in the booth, no, he'd be more likely to vote for Clinton due to Trump trampling on so many values Steve believes America represents.

Lol. Hell no.

Not that I agree 100% with them but @bullettimer and @paracelsus make some very excellent points.

These are my opinions based on what I think Captain America would have considered, not my own.

Also, to make one thing clear he is certainly a social liberal but he's definitely not a national or world security liberal.

I tend to doubt the REAL Steve Rogers (don't hand my that Hydra garbage) for Trump based on some of his stated attitudes and policies...The Wall and the Muslim Ban (while he's backed off actually calling it a "Muslim" ban since, he DID say that during his campaign). Even with the beneficial things he ran on bolstering our own infrastructure (in a very FDR manner), being more focused on improving the US standing on foreign trade (for example) probably wouldn't have been enough to earn Steve's backing.

However, I don't think he'd have backed Clinton either. For one, I think Benghazi would have probably been enough to sour him on her enough on it's own. I don't know that I need to go into her policies far beyond that, though he may have supported her stated ideas about military action in Syria. That's a guess, but seeing as how such action would have been ideological as opposed to natural resource related (well, any further than the fact that pretty much our entire interest in the region is mostly natural resource related), I tend to think Steve would have supported that. Side note, even though Trump ran on NOT doing this he ended up doing it anyway, a case of a Trump broken promise doing what Cap might consider doing the right thing for the wrong reason?

Anyway, I don't think Steve would abdicate his basic freedom to vote so he MIGHT very well heave voted for the Libertarian candidate Johnson. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be a fan of Johnson's isolationist ideas (seeing as he knows how well that DIDN'T work in WW2), and potentially his lax gun control issues but his "let people live how they choose to live" platform might at least have been the least unattractive of the three.

At any rate, I don't believe that Captain America would even tell anyone how he would vote, endorse, or campaign for any candidate.

Cap would stand by his democratically elected POTUS

no, but if he became president on earth 616 he would stand by him and support him but captain marvel would

Pretty shallow reason to think Captain America would be on board.
Donald Trump is a draft dodger and Captain America would peg him as such.

Also, Captain America doesn't wait to address injustice and would have YUGE issues with IQ45's easily fact-checked lies.
