DAILY MANIFESTO

Political Mortal Kombat

Posted on Wednesday, October 17 @ 14:59:17 Eastern by
It's time for Political Kombat XII!

YouTube creator slatester has create a Mortal Kombat spoof with various political nominees and incumbents, with a roster that mainly consists of Republican candidates: Mitt Romney, Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Donald Trump, Paul Ryanjust to name a few. I suppose they're just more over-the-top.

The only ones on the Democratic side are Joe Biden and Barack Obama, though our president does have (appropriately) green glowing smoke eyes. I would have loved to have seen Hillary Clinton, first for the hilarity and second to break this sausage fest.

I love the jabs at Paul Ryan's supposed obsession with P90X and Ayn Rand, as well as Biden's frequent interruptions. My favorite, though, has to be Obama's Hope-douken.

Altogether, the series is amazing! Check four videos from the series below.

    What elevates these from good to great is that all the moves are modeled off of actual MK attacks.

    Santorum with Raiden's opening to equip the sweater vest was amazing.

    I wouldn't be so sure Hilary Clinton would stop it from being a sausage fest...

    Trump's moveset is easily my favorite. "You're fired" like Yoga fire from Dhalsim, then the whole birth certificate move on Obama is just priceless.

    Although, Ryan's P90X move was pretty funny.
