ALBAWABA - Members of Mr. Beast's neighborhood rallied around him when he announced his intention to run for president of the United States if the age requirement were dropped.
On July 6, Mr. Beast posted on X about a potential presidential bid with a lowered age limit. At this time, 35 is the youngest age to run for president. At 26 years old, Mr. Beast is about ten years too young to be eligible.
According to Mr. Beast, he would run for president if the age to do so were lowered.
Most of the people who commented on the post made fun of the concept of YouTuber Mr. Beast being president. Some even went as far as to wonder if he would continue making films if he were the country's leader.
The video Mr. Beast released on June 29 shows him visiting nations like Jamaica and El Salvador to construct 100 homes for the underprivileged. He then shared his most recent post. The top comment, "MrBeast for President," has received an incredible 242,000 likes, and as of this writing, the video has garnered over 75 million views.
Although Mr. Beast is currently too young to run for president, some of his supporters have entertained the possibility that he might succeed if given the opportunity.
"The funniest part about this is that you'd likely win," said one listener.
On the other hand, not everyone thought Mr. Beast would make a good presidential contender. A number of users voiced their reservations, ranging from simple "no" replies to more in-depth inquiries such as "Why would you make a good president?" Who are you? A YouTuber.
In spite of all the buzz, Mr. Beast has a long way to go before he can legally run for president. He is "better off doing good things away from the office" at the moment, according to one commentator.
Who knows whether Mr. Beast will still have a huge fan base in twelve years? Either way, he can run if he wants to.
