10 Reasons Darth Vader Would Be A Better President Than Trump

I could write a whole article on why I have such an extreme distaste for Donald Trump and his supporters, but I could also write a whole article on my love for "Star Wars." So naturally, here's a nice analysis of all things that make Darth Vader a stronger presidential candidate than Trump.

1. Vader has actual political experience.

He’s literally been the leader of the galaxy, whereas Trump has only ever been a business man with no political experience whatsoever.

2. He would support raising the minimum wage.

Considering he was born into slavery and grew up that way, Darth Vader likely understands of the importance of a living wage.

3. He would support gay marriage.

He understands what it’s like not being allowed to marry who you love.

4. He would know how to handle foreign affairs.

Seeing as he handles intergalactic relations already.

5. He would take a hard economical stance against big corporations.

He ended the war with the Trade Federation, totally recognizing that greed causes major problems for the rest of the country. Look, he even helps you save money with that cute personal bank! No longer would 62 people own as much wealth as half the global population!


6. He would create so many jobs.

Like hello, according to "Star Wars: Behind the Magic," the interactive CD released by LucasArts, the Death Star alone required over 1.1 million employees!

7. He would support women’s rights.

He grew up with a single mother and recognizes the plight of women and the importance of equality.

8. He wouldn’t make fun of disabled people, but instead make sure everywhere is wheelchair accessible.

While Trump made fun of a disabled reporter, Vader would do no such thing. He is pretty disabled himself, considering he basically has no limbs and needs a mask to breathe.

9. Space exploration.

Come on, Vader would have us vacationing in Naboo in no time.

10. Vader knows it's never too late to do the right thing.

As he was dying, he owned up to all of his moral wrongdoings. While we have no proof that Trump won’t do this, it seems unlikely, considering he still thinks he’s the “least racist person you’ll ever meet.”

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
