Sheldon Johnson, Jr. (Johnsonverse)

Sheldon Robert Johnson, Jr. (b. December 31, 1963) is an American activist and politician. He was the CEO of Johnson Industries from October 11, 1991 to December 30, 2009, at which point his son Tim Johnson took over. He was the executive producer of The Price is Right from 1992 to 2010. He has been the 39th Governor of California since 2011, succeeding Arnold Schwarzenegger, and is running for President in the 2020 Democratic primaries; experts and strategists alike have predicted that Johnson will win the primaries and the election (both the popular and electoral vote).

Early Life
The son of Sheldon Johnson and Lucy Faye Jones, Johnson had a keen eye for politics; at five he memorized the names of every American President up until then, and the first seven amendments of the Constitution. His lifelong dream was to run for President; while he was CEO of Johnson Industries, Johnson studied American history and read copies of American documents, including the Bill of Rights, in his spare time.

Johnson Industries
After Stacker and Associates CEO Phil Stacker resigned from Johnson Industries on October 10, 1991, Johnson assumed control of the company. Under his reign, Johnson bought many companies, including PrimeStar, Yahoo!, YouTube, and Dog n Suds. Johnson is often cited as "the greatest CEO in Johnson Industries history".

Personal Life
Johnson has been married to Tammy Jo Johnson since December 29, 1990. They have three children, Timothy Daniel and Chloe Elizabeth (b. July 9, 1995), and Jaya Leigh (b. August 7, 2007). He has four brothers: William Lex "Bill" (b. June 29, 1969), Kenneth Jeffery (b. March 1, 1972), Mark Sheldon (b. July 8, 1980), and Craig Vincent (b. October 5, 1968), and two sisters: Linda Anne (b. December 31, 1963, born five minutes younger than Sheldon), and Ashley Nicole (b. August 1, 1979)

Politics
Just like all of his predecessors at Johnson Industries, Johnson is highly liberal, a member of the Democratic Party, ran for President in 2000 (his wife Tammy Jo ran the company during a few months of that year; Johnson lost the nomination by only one vote in his campaign) and is running for the Democratic presidential nomination again in 2020 on a platform of making "hardcore" improvements to America, with his brother Craig Johnson as his Vice President, Patrick J. Kennedy as his Supreme Court Nominee, Chelsea Clinton as his Chief Adviser, former Johnson CEO Phil Stacker as his Attorney General, Linda Anne Johnson as his Special Counsel, Mark Johnson as Head of the FBI, 2000 Democratic candidate Al Gore as Head of the EPA, and Joseph P. Kennedy II as his Secretary of State. Johnson has said that he began considering a second presidential run following Hillary Clinton's surprise defeat by Republican nominee Donald Trump in the 2016 election. Already, polls are stating that around 97% of Americans would vote for him due to his success and fame. Despite this, Trump himself has been quoted as saying on his Twitter account, "I assure you, I have a far better chance of winning the 2020 Election than Sheldon Johnson, Jr. and the Dems. They will definitely be crushed by me and the Republicans in 2020, no question about it. Johnson's just made the biggest mistake of his life". Johnson rebutted in a speech at Sioux City, IA on September 12, 2018, stating, "My fellow Americans, this is for one Donald J. Trump. Mr. Trump, you claim Democrats are embarrassing America? Well, you're the one embarrassing America. You're making all of our allies into our enemies. It'll take a long time getting them to trust us again because of you. Always willing to go back to the past, a time when segregation was the law and womens' rights were nonexistent, when the future is far more important to all of us. Whatever, just go keep living in your own damn world. No better than Nixon, seeking nuclear war and terror. As I've said in one of my speeches, I sometimes wonder exactly what direction this country's going. My son Tim's anti-Trump posts are all 100% justified. Also, do you have any sort of respect for those men, women, and children who perished on 9/11? If I had a million dollars for everything bad you've done to America, I'd be very rich, indeed. Granted, I am rich, but still. America's truly changed, and not for the better, I know that. You racist, misogynistic, homophobic, violent, anti-choice warmonger! I felt embarrassed to be an American the moment you got elected! To the people, if Trump gets reelected, then by the end of his presidency, America will be a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would be forced to sit at segregated lunch counters, sexual harassment would be legal, false impressions of hope could be given to dying Latino children, rogue police could break down non-white citizens' doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution and might be taught Stalinist propaganda instead, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the Government, and the doors of the Federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is! Why, oh why couldn't Mike Pence at least have run for President instead of an old, crusty, salty, stuffy real estate coot who got brainwashed by Vladimir Putin and the Stalinists ihto agreeing on a mission to conquer America, Europe and the rest of the world? Years of progress on equal rights for women, sexuality, and races will be undone, undermined and suppressed if he gets a second term! In other words, HE! IS! A! TERRORIST! If he gets elected, how can you--or any American--have any sort of confidence that the government won't lose sight of its original purpose? Now, my friends, let's bring freedom back to America!", to which the crowd applauded and cheered. One of his MySpace speeches also came with a GIF of the Angry Video Game Nerd drinking his beer and screaming into a pillow from his review of the NES adaptation of the 1990 film Dick Tracy. The post was liked and reposted by the Johnson Twins themselves, both of whom added their own commentary; Tim added, "You will win, Dad. And IF you don't, I'll ensure you do anyways. With the Howard Johnson Navy. Remember, people: if you see me post the hashtag #vivalarevolution, THAT IS THE CALL TO RISE UP AND REBEL. Further instructions will be given after the hashtag is sent out on both MySpace and WBC.", while Chloe added, "If you don't win, Dad, which I just know you will, Tim will just overthrow America's first dictator. Good luck!"; Tim later added to this post "Right, Chloe. I'm not going anywhere if Trump wins. I'll fight tooth-and-nail to overthrow him, and I won't be gentle"; Johnson himself backed this up with a "Hear hear! America needs hardcore changes for sure: social justice, better jobs, education and housing, and a drop in homeless.". Phil Stacker, Craig and Tammy Jo Johnson all liked the post as well. On June 15, 2018, at 8:35 PM, he submitted an FEC Form 2 in compliance with the Federal Election Campaign Act. Johnson frequently begins his speeches with "My fellow Americans...". Johnson has been cited as the de-facto leader of the Democratic Party after Hillary Clinton's loss in the 2016 election, and his age (57 on inauguration day) has been cited as Johnson "bringing a fresh face to the party".

Johnson believes that the Democratic Party needs to be a big tent. He intends to appeal to voters that are dissatisfied with the increasingly radicalized stances which both parties have adopted. In addition, Johnson has promised that, if elected president, he will bring unity to a confused and divided nation.

Governor of California
On May 1, 2010, Johnson announced his intentions to run for Governor of California in 2011 with Phil Stacker as his Lieutenant Governor. Critics thought Johnson would not win unless he "pulled a (Tonya) Harding" and use vicious tactics against the person ahead of him. However, his vow to run a positive campaign and refusal to stoop to dirty tricks, coupled with his fame, were factors that led to him being elected. He got reelected for a second term in 2015.

Under Johnson, California has seen an uptick in jobs and housing, a mass tax cut, a downturn in crime, a decrease in pollution, and economic growth. His approval rating among Californians is 99% as of September 2018, the highest of any United States governor. Despite this, some conservatives, notably Rush Limbaugh, have criticized Johnson's left-wing policies.
