Tim Johnson (Johnsonverse)

Timothy Daniel Johnson (b. July 9, 1995) is the son of Sheldon Johnson, Jr. and Tammy Jo Johnson and the CEO of Johnson Industries since 2009. He is also an actor and director, and hosts Fireside Chat with Tim Johnson on WBC. In a 2015 poll, Johnson was voted the most trustworthy person in the world, surpassing James Earl Jones. Johnson also has Asperger's syndrome, which he often credits to his seemingly-unending stream of successes with Johnson Industries.

Early Life
Since the age of two, Tim wanted to be just like his father one day. He would typically pretend that he was running Johnson Industries along with his twin sister Chloe and friends Belle and Jenny (usually in a rather-realistic manner with an actual business language he picked up overhearing his father), and even read history books on Johnson. He said he once participated in a pretend tea party with Chloe and quickly turned it into a mafia meeting with the stuffed animals to negotiate a hit on his teddy bear Artie, who he accused of committing a faux pas in front of the don; Chloe later stated a mafia meeting was a lot more fun than a "girly" tea party, due to her well-known tomboy attitude. At nine, Tim wrote a popular school play on Johnson's history called A History of a Titan (a play that was noted for having rather mature-sounding dialogue and a plethora of shots at Phil Stacker, who was portrayed in the play in an unflattering light as "a fat bastard" who whipped his employees and ignored the board's suggestions in favor of chasing demographics; Stacker himself was quite amused by this portrayal), which was greeted with applause from his classmates and teachers. As the years passed, Tim helped his father more often. Then on December 10, 2009, Tim got the news that would change his life forever.

Background
He was notified by his father that he would retire to run for Governor of California and that Tim would take over the company. The transition took place from December 11, 2009, to December 29, over 18 days. On December 30, the news was announced. He noted in a press release, "Under my watch, Johnson Industries will soar to new heights, but I'm not in it for the money. I will do it for you, the people, and for myself, because I just love unleashing my imagination and sharing it with the world. Just call me...Walt Disney 2.0.". Under construction

Personal Life
Tim is the son of Sheldon Johnson Jr. and Tammy Jo Johnson. He has a twin sister, Chloe Johnson, and a wife, Belle Armstrong. The couple has two kids. Tim also has a bunny named Biscotti (b. 2015; found on a cul-de-sac near the Johnson home and theorized to be an Easter dump); he had previously had up to four bunnies, these being Ralphie (c. March 2003-September 22, 2014, adopted May 2, 2004), Ashley Belle (nee Ichigo, January 31, 2004-June 8, 2018, adopted September 3, 2004), Beaumont (c. 2009-April 4, 2017, adopted December 1, 2009), and Willow (c. 2009-October 21, 2018, adopted December 1, 2009).

Johnson was subject to a death hoax on February 20, 2019, in which it was reported by the San Jose Mercury News website that he had been shot and killed by a member of the Westboro Baptist Church for supporting LGBT rights, with the member shouting, “Death to the man supporting the destruction of God’s will”, as well as planning two bombing attacks on his family’s house and Johnson headquarters and assassinating Sheldon Johnson, Jr., Tammy Jo Johnson, Craig Johnson, Phil Stacker and others in Johnson’s 2020 Presidential campaign. He responded by calling a press conference, in which he appeared in zombie makeup, shambling to the podium before delivering a statement on behalf of a fictional program that gives brains to underprivileged zombie children, calling out those who make death hoaxes to manipulate the brain supply. He did so using a fake British accent, and at the end of the conference, broke character to deliver a personal threat to whoever declared him dead. The hoax was later traced back to a disgruntled ex-Johnson employee who had taken part in the 2016 conspiracy to introduce the Charter System to the NASCAR Panasonic Cup Series (then known as the Sprint Cup Series), who responded, “It was all justified; he supports destroying racing and supports destroying humanity. He has ‘evil-doer’ written all over him, and has blood on his hands”. Johnson simply shrugged it off, but a group of overzealous teen extras hired for a movie egged the perpetrator's house.

Johnson states he constantly flip-flops between agnosticism and atheism, primarily because he considers himself a rational person who wants scientific proof as to the existence of God and the supernatural. Occasionally, he'll view religion in the same way as God is depicted in Monster World, as one supreme deity who cloned multiple aspects of himself with different views (even the Flying Spaghetti Monster), and will also say all religion is valid except Mormonism (which he views as a cult) and Scientology (which he views as a massive scam, especially since DC-8s didn't exist in 1949, accusing L. Ron Hubbard of making things up as he went along).

Political views
Just like all his predecessors, Tim is highly liberal, supports his father in his run for President, and is notorious on MySpace (one of the companies Johnson owns) for making very scathing anti-Trump posts, and even stated in a 2017 interview, "I don't regret any of these posts one bit". Some anti-Trump posts by Tim include:
 * "You know you've failed BIG TIME when most of your voters are blaming YOU for the shutdown."
 * ”What the hell? You just betrayed the Kurds at a time of desperation! There could be a second 9/11!”
 * "Just for withdrawing troops from Afghanistan, allowing ISIS to regain its strength, but vastly moreso than ever, when Dad gets elected, you, Mr. Donald John Trump, will forever be remembered as your own (and the people's) cautionary tale against letting an inexperienced politician into office. No wonder Mattis resigned; he wanted to distance himself from you."
 * "Please tell me your promise to hold the government hostage taking months or years is another tantrum of yours...if not, then Napoleon would bow to you like you're God Himself."
 * "So, those Comey docs allege you broke the law. If it ends up coming true, it'll be the drop that spilled the glass for your presidency, destroy America's rep, and give me a good excuse to launch the revolution. The 2016 election was like picking between a rock and a hard place, and we got the rock."
 * "Two kids died at the border! What, Trump, you didn't care? Oh, you're laughing hysterically! I bet YOU ordered it!"
 * "I know you want to pardon yourself and Manafort to cover up the fact that you helped Russia, and Manafort was a crucial part of that."
 * (After receiving a pipe bomb in the mail on October 24, 2018) "I know it was you, Trump! You're trying to kill all your opposition to ensure your tyrannical dictatorship and then betray and scapegoat the Saudis! I am THIS close to unleashing the Iowa on your precious golf resort!"
 * "So, you tried to prosecute Comey and Clinton huh? I wouldn't be surprised if your secret police tries again."
 * "Claiming you pointed out Osama bin Laden. Talk about stealing credit! What's next? Brainwashing citizens into thinking you're God?"
 * "The anti-net neutrality thing was clearly a way of suppressing criticism."
 * (after the suspect was caught) "Now I realize that Czar Trump I merely paid an unstable but very loyal follower of his to ruin the Democratic Party by sending pipe bombs to me, my dad and other key members, hoping each would get killed by the bombs so that Trump and his administration can wreck what George Washington and the Founding Fathers started. Trump knows he's a descendant of immigrants, but couldn't care any less, choosing to undermine that by making America a totalitarian dictatorship, the exact personification of what it once fought against. A tyranny. THE FOURTH REICH. I'm still close--actually closer--to unleashing the Iowa on his golf resort; let me tell you, the explosions from the shelling of Mar-A-Lago Golf Resort would put every explosion I've staged in Neptunia to shame. #MakeAmericaSaneAgain"
 * "Aha! Now that we know Cohen used some campaign funds as Stormy Daniels' hush money, Trump is one step closer to his political downfall and demise. Trump claims it totally clears himself, but it's just a not too crafty coverup."
 * "So, you asked Tillerson to violate the law, eh?"
 * "Now that we know you hired illegal immigrants for your service, we also know that you're two-faced. #hypocrite"
 * "That synagogue shooting is Trump's fault. Even though he didn't directly do it, his rhetoric caused it. I don't think Trump is actually an anti-semite since he probably adheres to certain Jewish stereotypes and thus believes they line his pockets, but still. I could handle his extreme fascist policies, but not the fact that his rhetoric caused it! Putin ordered the assassination of a Russian spy with radiation poisoning in 2006, just like how Trump ordered the pipe bombs and caused this shooting."
 * "As Judge Judy says, God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason."
 * "Missing a WWI ceremony due to rain? Not very patriotic."
 * "If you won't help Puerto Rico, then CSL will. Just because they have a majority Hispanic population doesn't automatically make them Mexican, you ignorant ass. I bet you're laughing hysterically at the situation and tweeting at the same time, with your feet on the desk and smoking expensive cigars."
 * "It's way too obvious that Khashoggi's murder was a false flag carried out by the CIA to justify betraying and invading Saudi Arabia for its oil. Trump, don't make the same mistake Bush did invading Iraq, because all you're gonna do is embolden the Islamic State (ISIS) to expand into Saudi Arabia--oh wait! I predict you will do just that. Dad, if you read this, make sure to arrest him and all the Czar's men, Pence not included, when you become President, OK? Good."
 * "While it doesn't make up for all the other crap you've done, I will admit that putting prices in drug commercials is actually a smart idea."
 * "Those UC Berkley riots were Trump's fault. Even though it was indirect. The riots undermined free speech."
 * (On the arrest of Michael Avenatti) "Avenatti was framed, with random women paid to make up sob stories. Trump's secret police has now officially begun its horrible, horrible reign of terror. I bet Trump's put my dad on top of his hit list, and is planning on arresting him next. #4thReich"
 * "Hey Trump. I understand you had something removed. Maybe that something was YOUR HEART!!!!"
 * "Mr. Trump, you are the first king of America just for helping a bunch of neo-Soviets in their quest to dismantle democracy. And you are bad at that too."
 * "OK, so that Jewish group says about yesterday's shooting to Czar Trump I, 'You have also deliberately undermined the safety of people of color, Muslims, LGBTQ people, and people with disabilities. Yesterday's massacre is not the first act of terror you incited against a minority group in our country.' I think it's 100% justified. His response exposes his being Muslimphobic, transphobic, homophobic, colorphobic, cripplephobic (my term for fear and/or hatred of disabled people), etc. by tweeting about baseball at a time like this. More specifically, a team that hardly anyone here at Johnson corporate in San Jose gives two sh*ts about; we only rooted for the Red Sox because we all hate the Dodgers (pretty much everyone here is either a Giants or A's fan; I swing either way depending on which team is playing)."
 * "Even the late, great Stan Lee himself (may he rest in peace; God bless his sweet soul) thought you needed to tone it down, Czar Trump I. I got a warship I named the Stan Lee in 2012 in his honor. It's very powerful; I'm not afraid to use it."
 * "Revoking birthright citizenship...oh, sure! I totally agree with that! That is the best idea ever! Very constitutional! All-American! Represents a land of the free! Opportunity! Totally coming from a guy not hellbent on changing the Pledge of Allegiance to end with '...liberty and justice for all American white Christian males' to represent Trumpist ideas. (obvious sarcasm) #MakeAmericaSaneAgain"
 * (video post) "Let me be perfectly clear: if Trump tries to create a dictatorship in this country, Johnson Industries will NOT move to Europe. Instead, and I am being serious here, we will spearhead a revolution against the government. I got a great, big navy, and I'm not afraid to use it. And you don't wanna know how many Jarvis rockets we have on standby for the express purpose of being used as non-nuclear weapons. So do us all a favor, Trump, and just resign before someone assassinates you (NOT SAYING I'LL DO IT). At least Pence isn't a loudmouth braggart and won't try to create a new Axis of Evil with us at the center."
 * "Trump is making America great again, alright. Making it great for the rich white assholes who think money is more important than human life."
 * "Using tear gas to expel migrants is like giving a friend a TNT bomb disguised as a gold bar."
 * "Dear Trump, YOU'RE AN INHUMAN MONSTER. Signed, Tim Johnson. #MakeAmericaSaneAgain"
 * "May God have mercy on those who want to be like Trump one day. #MakeAmericaSaneAgain #ImpeachTheMonster #TrumpTheSoviet"
 * "That mentally bankrupt monster Trump wants to destroy ALL non-whites on Earth, starting with an ethnic cleansing of the Japanese states."
 * "Is Trump a human being? Because humans have one thing he doesn't have: SOULS. #ImpeachTheMonster"
 * "That morally (and mentally) bankrupt man has reduced America's once-proud and good name to a stereotype and a joke."
 * "That fascist dictator Trump is the greatest scab and cancer to over 240 years of American history and the syphillis to everything America's worked so hard for. Can't you get at least ONE thing right?"
 * "Ripping families apart is terrible! That's something the Nazis did to Jewish families. That's something the Soviet Union would've done. Proof that Trump is a soulless, inhuman coward with tiny hands."
 * "Go ahead Trump. I warn you though, pulling out of the nuclear deal would start a chain reaction sending America down the tubes."
 * "Skipping a Veteran's Day ceremony in Arlington. Oh, sure! That'll be respectful to the brave men and women who died for our country!"
 * "Trump is turning old allies into new adversaries."
 * "That's it. I have zero faith in this craven cretin. He'll be sending America down the toilet for sure!"
 * (Upon Trump's victory in the 2016 election) "People of America, you are the single-biggest disappointment of my entire LIFE!!!!!!! Don't come crying to me if our restaurants refuse you service for voting for Trump, because you just contributed to the beginning of the end!"
 * "Do YOU want this mentally dead man to do to America like how Stacker almost did to Johnson?"
 * "I liked you on The Apprentice, Mr. Trump. Why, oh why did you choose to be a candidate? Either The Republicans have rotted your brains, your old age is starting to settle in, or both."
 * "What the hell Senate?! Kavanaugh clearly hates women, thinks the only thing they're good for is sex, and you confirm him to the Supreme Court?! You fools! You just single-handedly undermined a poor woman's testimony, re-victimized her, and maybe even ignored all future testimonies of women who get victimized! You clearly knew about the truth, but somehow got influenced by that orange cube and his minions! Naïve fools. This is proof that the Trump admin doesn't care about the American people! They only care about war, power, money, and themselves. Dad, if you read this, when you score the 2020 election, make sure to expel that heartless, perverted old womanizer Kavanaugh from the Supreme Court and publicly humiliate him, OK? Good."
 * "Yup. Turns out that stuffy coot's greedy. Frank Caliendo's MadTV portrayal of him from the Sesame Street parody was accurate. This song summarizes him well: "I love cash. And I don't care if somebody falls victim. If someone's in the gutter I'll kick them! Just to get their cash! Take it hair! (AS HAIR) Yes, he loves cash! Whether it's greenbacks or doubloons or shekels! (AS TRUMP) I'm on it like salt on a pretzel! (AS BOTH) Yes, I/he love(s) cash!"
 * "Shutting down the government just because you can't get funding for your precious border wall?! THAT'S TANTAMOUNT TO--actually is--HOLDING THE GOVERNMENT HOSTAGE! All Johnson personnel, begin pre-allocating equipment and activating all naval vessels. We are now one step closer to revolution. THIS IS NOT THE CALL TO RISE UP. Trump has yet to go off the deep end. But when (not if) he does, which I predict will be very soon, it will be the beginning of the end for the conservatives' beloved status quo. A status quo where unspeakable things happen."
 * "Declaring a national emergency over a non-issue?! YOU ARE ON THIN ICE, MISTER. I didn't pay my taxes for this, so naval exercises and training flights begin on March 4. There's a reason we haven't torn out the old STOLport at Walt Disney World, or as it's now known, Elias Air Force Base, with the Speedway."
 * "So, there was no collusion. You win this round, Trump. But mark my words: you commit one more, ONE MORE, act of tyranny, and your ass is pure, fertilized, all-natural GRASS. That incident where some of our F-15s dropped pillows on Joint Base Andrews? That was a training flight practicing fighter sweeps. We've been practicing with dummy bombs simulating the weight of actual bombs at Elias Air Force Base. Consider it a warning shot, because come zero hour, you're gonna see some serious shit."
 * "Windmills do NOT cause cancer. The only thing that causes cancer around here is your ignorance. You need to stop this war against green energy to protect you and your sycophantic lackeys' interests in the fossil fuel industries, because there will come a day where these fossil fuels dry up. And that's why we here at Johnson Industries are heavily researching synthentic fuels for use in our locomotives, ships, aircraft, and spacecraft, as well as for NASCAR competition. And we'll make sure it's both clean-burning AND affordable for the everyday motorist. But no, you just want to keep using natural sources of coal and oil, viewing green energy as a threat to American prosperity and trying to frame Saudi Arabia for Khashoggi's murder so you can get your greedy mitts on even more oil. I mean yes, Continental Rail does very, very good business hauling coal and crude, moreso than the other Class I roads combined, but do we glorify its use and demonize green energy as a carcinogen? NO. I'm not gonna go using this irrational prejudice against green energy to justify starting the revolution since it isn't really hurting anyone, but I will start it if your obsession with fossil fuels becomes detrimental to public health."
 * "Before you ask, NO. I am NOT blaming Trump for the Notre Dame fire. He'd have absolutely nothing to gain from it, not even a few sick kicks. No, I believe the fire was started by al-Qaeda, and the French government is covering this up to avoid mass Islamophobia."
 * ”Caging kids up reminds me of concentration camps! No wonder Chloe calls you ‘Hitler Reincarnated’.”
 * "Way to go, Mehta. The one good idea Trump had (aside from restarting the manned Martian program), and you blocked it."
 * "If impeachment proceedings go well, there may be no need for a revolution. Here's hoping, because I don't want to be the one to order the deaths of millions."
 * (Upon Trump's 2019 impeachment) "To everyone who voted in favor of impeachment, thank you. We are now one step closer to ending this seemingly-endless nightmare."
 * (After the airstrike that killed Soleimani) "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME, TRUMP?! 2019 WAS BAD ENOUGH WITH MY GRANDFATHER DYING, AND I WANTED 2020 TO BE BETTER! BUT NO! YOU JUST DECIDED TO DECLARE WAR ON IRAN! AND FOR WHAT?! OIL?! GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK HEAD THAT FOSSIL FUELS ARE THE CAUSE OF THOSE AWFUL, AWFUL FIRES IN AUSTRALIA! CONSIDER THIS YOUR LAST WARNING!"
 * (After the Iranian missile attack on Al Asad Airbase) "I called it. I knew killing Soleimani was gonna start a war! To the captains of the HJS Iowa and New Jersey: deploy for the Strait of Hormuz with the equipment to brute-disarm any and all nuclear warheads. To all ships on the Eastern Seaboard: execute Naval Plan IR-724. Detain any Iran-flagged ships that come within the designated exclusion zone. Might as well do our part in this and go all-in rather than open a second front."

Also, Johnson has mandated that nothing positive can be said about Trump unless he deems something he does positive. Most notably, he organized a "protest" by not airing any inauguration coverage on WBC, instead choosing to air a Terrahawks marathon (consisting of all 39 episodes of the original series, plus the two-part Monster World crossover made during the latter's' fifth season in 2002); he was scheduled to host the marathon, but was replaced by Chloe after he caught a cold (though he did appear in pre-recorded segments, and mustered enough strength and willpower to appear towards the end of the marathon, wearing a mask so he wouldn't infect others); during the marathon, Chloe interviewed original voice actors Jeremy Hitchin, Denise Bryer, and Windsor Davies, as well as series co-creator Christopher Burr.

Johnson also often provides his personal opinion on world events. For example, he tends to blame certain events (such as the Pulse Nightclub Shooting, the 2017 Northern California Wildfires, among other recent disasters) on ISIS, and after their fall, al-Qaeda. He also believes Autism Speaks is a hate group seeking to exterminate those with Autism by using "much of the same rhetoric Adolf Hitler used to describe the Jews". Regarding gun politics, he believes the National Rifle Association meddles in gun control efforts not to benefit gun manufacturers, but because of baseless paranoia that everyone needs a gun to form militias and resistance groups against an invasion from Russia or China that, realistically, can never happen. He is a highly controversial figure among conservatives, with conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh labeling him a "domestic terrorist", Pat Robertson calling him a “boss who praises Satan”, and other conservatives have called him an assortment of insults. Liberals, moderates, and independents, conversely, praise him for standing up to the Trump administration; some have even gone on to consider him the one running the country instead of Trump, as Johnson was once quoted saying "There is no 45th President. The person in the Oval Office, once a good man, got brainwashed by the Neo-Soviets who run Russia into a dangerous fanatic inserted by those Neo-Soviets to make this country so paralyzed with stupidity, nothing can stop Putin from rebuilding the Soviet Union and conquering Europe, and possibly the world, to realize Lenin's vision (Stalin's bastardization of communism notwithstanding). I for one support my father in his run to become the TRUE 45th President".

Trump's response to Johnson's criticism has, to date, not been his usual rhetoric, but a reconciliatory tone. He stated in a Twitter post that "to me, there is nothing more American than Johnson Industries. I, like pretty much everyone else, love Monster World, and I know what Johnson is capable of. Therefore, I'm gonna leave him alone, and not try to meddle in his affairs. If he wants to insult me, that's fine. That's why the First Amendment exists." Johnson's response was to call his bluff, saying, "He was just saying that to butter Johnson Industries up so he can seize Continental Rail, nationalize it, hand freight operations over to other railroads, and terminate all passenger operations to funnel everyone aboard the airlines. His statement has "bluff" written all over it". He later changed this statement, saying "I think I now know what Trump's game is: he's afraid of us. He knows the Howard Johnson Navy is bigger than the US Navy, and that we have the means to render the US, Russian, and/or Chinese nuclear arsenals completely useless if it comes to that. Well, Mr. You're Fired, if the Neo-Soviets give you a second term, I got my ships, and I'm not afraid to use any of them."
