Headline: RAW VIDEO: Texas Hippo Timothy Launches Unlikely 2024 Presidential Campaign
Caption: With Donald Trump and Joe Biden looking set for a rematch in what could be one of the bitterest presidential elections in history, an unlikely new candidate has emerged - a hippo from Texas. Timothy the Hippo from San Antonio Zoo welcomed his fans for a presidential press conference on Presidents' Day, on Monday (19February2024). Two guests/voters even claimed to have traveled from Montana for the special moment. This groundbreaking event marked Timothy's ‘run’ for the presidency and the launch of his exclusive presidential merchandise line, available at the zoo and online. Zoo staff distributed limited-edition Timothy for President bumper stickers during the high-energy press conference. The zoo's new entrance gift shop, “Mariposa Market,” will serve as his campaign headquarters, marking the official launch of his ambitious journey to the White House. Having garnered widespread support and endorsements during a 2020 campaign, Timothy is prepared to elevate his efforts with the backing of his best friend and trusted advisor, Kevin the Duck. Timothy has already initiated his campaign on social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter (@TimothyTheHippo), amassing a substantial following. At the heart of Timothy's vision for America lies his "EXTRA sturdy" platform, emphasising the importance of ensuring every citizen enjoys at least one rejuvenating nap per day through his "Naps For All" initiative. Additionally, he advocates for mandatory snack time at schools and offices to enhance productivity and happiness. Furthermore, Timothy passionately promotes kindness and respect among individuals, alongside championing the well-being of all creatures, big and small. "We are incredibly proud of Timothy and his presidential aspirations," expressed Tim Morrow, President & CEO of San Antonio Zoo. "His dedication to making America 'HIPpo' again, with a focus on naps, snacks, and spreading joy, is truly inspiring. At the end of the day and Hippo bottom line, is there really a better current candidate?" Of course hippos aren’t actually eligible to be President, so Timothy’s 2024 campaign merchandise, including "Naps For All" yard signs and exclusive t-shirts featuring Timothy's endearing grin and catchy slogans will raise funds to protect wildlife.
