Reed Political Family dynasty

## The Start of the Reed Political Family Dynasty

The Reed political dynasty started in 1980 when then State Senator Phil Reed Sr. ran for Governor in the State of Yellowstone. Reed faced democratic challenger Jim Hood. Phil Reed went on to win the general election with 57.4% of the vote. He served two terms as Governor. In 1999 he entered the Republican Primary for President of the United States. He dropped out in March of 2000 and Endorsed Amarillo Senator John McCain for the nomination.

Phil Reed Sr. stayed out of politics, he mostly focused on his son Phil Reed II, helping him get elected to public office. In 2010 Phil Reed Sr. decided to run for State Senator, he was then challenged by his own son Phil Reed II. Phil Reed II went on to win the primary and he was then elected as Minority Whip of the State Senate. Phil Reed Sr pictured on the right.

### Family Drama and backstabbing

In 2022 Phil Reed II and his brother Andrew Reed both decided to run for Congress.  Andrew Reed decided to move to Amarillo. He went on to win his race. Phil Reed II also won his race. They both got to the house. Andrew Reed was elected Speaker of the House after two ballots. Phil Reed II did plan to run for Speaker however his candidacy was ignored by the House Republicans conference.

Phil Reed II went on to leave the Republican Party in 2023. This gave him a lot of media attention and a lot of popularity. However in 2024 he changed course and joined the Democratic Party and ran for the Vice President with Martha Holley. In 2024 Andrew Reed lost re-election to the House and was replaced by Finn Merchant, his opponent from 2022. While Phil Reed II was elected as Vice President of the United States.

Many people say that Phil Reed II did play a part in his brother's downfall in 2024, many say that he paid activist and election denier Scott Romney to run a 3rd party campaign to take votes away from Andrew. Many have stated that Phil Reed wanted to get back at his brother for not allowing him to run for Speaker in 2023. However this has not been proven by any verified sources. Right before Scott Romney was set to speak out he was sadly killed in his home the night before.

### All three branches of Government

In 2025 Martha Holley resigned as President of the United States. This made Phil Reed President of the United States. During this first year as President many stories started coming out about how Phil Reed was secretly trying to marry the House Minority Leader John Shake. This would be known as the start of “ShakeGate”.
Soon after John Shake was elected Speaker of the House. Right after Phil Reed found this out he made John Shake his Vice President. The rumors about “ShakeGate” still haunted his Presidency. In late 2026 Phil Reed married Magnolia Senator Luna Alveraz. She was then elected Senate Majority Leader. That meant his own Wife was in charge of the Senate. He was in charge of the White House, and with Phil Reed’s brother back in power as Speaker of the House they had control over 2 of the 3 Houses of Government. Luna Reed went on to be the second highest ranking member on the Supreme Court in 2027 when Phil Reed appointed her.

In November of 2027 there was an investigation laughed against the President and his family for corruption. The family said it was a “witch hurt” to hurt Phil Reed’s re-election campaign that he was soon to announce. The investigation closed when they could not find any evidence of corruption.

### Phil Reed II re-election campaign

In December of 2027 Phil Reed announced he was running for re-election. He started great in the polls beating all candidates by large numbers. However his family started to pour in millions of dollars into his campaign. Claire Swift went on to attack him and his family. She then would go on to call Phil Reed racist. After she did that she lost a lot of support and dropped out of the race and even refused to vote in the general election.  The media called for Phil Reed to drop out of the race after some people came forward after Phil Reed offered them money to drop out of the race. Phil Reed would then call for the removal of “free Press”. The people however loved this. They wanted Phil Reed to be re-elected. Phil Reed would win all 50 states and went on to win 70% of the vote. The biggest victory since George Washington.
