A campaign manager, Zooey Deschanel seems to know what America needs from its President. A leader? A best friend of Taylor Swift? No. Above all what this country needs is supreme cuteness. America needs an infant—her infant.

My infant daughter is going to run for president. She remains silent all of the key issues but she’s much cuter than Donald Trump.
