WASHINGTON– In an effort to turn the struggling Democrat Party around, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has elected the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz as its new Chair in a landslide victory, with 99% of the vote, after his campaign slogan “No Brains Required” resonated deeply with party members.
The decision, met with a mixture of elation and hope from fellow Democrats, marks a historic moment for a party many insiders say is ready for a leader who truly embodies its core tenets.
“Oh my God, I’m like, so excited to finally have someone even smarterer than me to run our party,” said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) as the Scarecrow was seen just nodding due to a lack of cognitive function. “The Scarecrow gave me some great ideas on inflation by staring at me blankly while drooling. I mean, who needs a brain when you’re a Democrat?”
A DNC spokesperson was excited for the future of the party and said that the Scarecrow was somebody who could definitely relate to the typical Democrat voter, promising that the Scarecrow’s lack of a brain wasn’t a deficiency but an added bonus.
It was also reported that the Cowardly Lion had been elected to lead the Republican Party to perhaps give its members courage to actually do something that they were voted into office to accomplish.
