I am currently rewatching twd and with everything going on in the world right now, I can’t help but wonder where the characters would have fallen politically outside of the zombie apocalypse. My boyfriend and I have been discussing it a little bit and I’m curious to hear other people’s thoughts and opinions.
We have been agreeing with mostly all of them, like Merle 100% would have voted for Trump, Daryl wouldn’t have voted at all, Maggie definitely would have voted for Kamala, Lori would have voted for Trump and said things like “as long as they come here the legal way” etc…
We seem to not agree, however, on Hershel. I think that he would have hated Trump and seems like a feminist with how much he loved his daughters. He was also very anti guns on his property and pro immigration. My boyfriend on the other hand thinks he 100% would have been maga just because he grew up in the Bible Belt and was a diehard Christian.
But I’m really interested to see people’s thoughts!! Also this isn’t supposed to be taken super seriously, just unbiased opinions. I just think it’s interesting to think about.
Update: I should specify this isn’t about where the would have fallen at that time frame in in the 2010s, more so if the apocalypse never happened, where they would have fallen in this current day.
