## Early political career & tenure as Governor of Illinois

He never really entered politics until 2032 when he endorsed Nevada Governor Younis Qanoner for President and endorsed several paleo conservatives for office, This brought speculation as to a possible political career. The Speculations were correct when in December of 2033, Romulan announced he would run for Governor of Illinois. In the Republican Primary, he faced Rodney Davis, the republican primary was so close that it would lead to a run off that same year were Romulan would defeat Davis by a margin of 38 points. Romulan ended up defeating Incumbent Governor Chris Kennedy by a margin of just 0.17%. As Governor. Romulan implement many policies which made conservatives happy but cause outrage pretty much elsewhere. He banned Critical Race Theory in schools and implemented laws that sanctioned Clinics that provided trans surgeries. When Marijuana was legalized on December of 2035, he signed a law that taxed Marijuana by 75% and allowing only certain farmacies in certain areas to sell it making it almost impossible to be purchased by a wide majority of the Illinois Population. Despite all of that he won Re-election in 2038 winning 68,7% of the vote and winning every county in Illinois. His success was mostly credited to the unpopularity of Incumbent U.S President Bill Clinton.

After 5 years as Governor, Romulan had mostly become the face of the MEGS right which had been dead since their catastrophic performance in the 2028 General Elections, when the Alfred revolution took place.

## Presidential run & 2040 election

Previously, he had told the New York times that he was going to focus on finishing his term as Illinois Governor rather than run for President in the 2040 Presidential Election but after a draft rom campaign got enough momentum, he decided to enter the race. Originally he was trailing to 2036 collapsfarian nominee, Viktor Perot who had narrowly lost the election to then Vice President Bill Clinton (Who was now the President). Many people called for him to drop out after he was demolished in the Idaho, Utah and Hawaii Primaries, However, he didn't. His campaign made a comeback when he won a convincing victory in the Alabama Primaries, After Super Tuesday, There was No stopping Rom. He was the nominee, he picked legendary Alaska Senator Alamkan Countryball, as his running mate. Romulan Faced President Bill Clinton and Former President Wabbit Portalpie after the left was split between the Clintonites and the socialists. The 2040 campaign was the most toxic campaign in MEGS history, with attack ads coming from all sides, the debates were chill though with Clinton seeming to be nervous at time, Wabbit seemed prepared but some people noticed character flaws when it came to the question of the death penalty and the war on Syria. Romulan seemed rested and confident although he did face criticism for calling Muslims "worthless" and "flat out nasty with their big ass noses". When the election rolled around, no one was sure who would win but in the end, Romulan Benoit would be elected President in a landslide, receiving 386 electoral college votes.

The economy under his first term was alright although he fired 500,000 federal workers forcing them to strike on April 29 to October 6 of 2042. Throughout his first term, Romulan was mostly unpopular with an approval rating as low as 18% at one point but he still had a lot of support by the twisted tea party and so in 2044 he was re-nominated. Since Alamkan Countryball died just 11 days into his vice presidency, Romulan selected Kentucky Senator Addison Refollow (His very own son in-law) to be his Vice President. President Romulan Benoit faced Former Vice President Theodore Roosevelt in the 2044 General Election. Although the race was deemed to be a Roosevelt Landslide after he pulled an upset and defeated wabbit in the NDP Primaries, Romulan was able to pull one of the biggest upsets of all time and Narrowly Defeat Teddy Roosevelt.
