Senator Armstrong

Senator Steven Armstrong is the most based politician of all time, and is the main antagonist of the 2013 video game Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

The only reason why this page exists is because he was voted the winner of 4chan's King of /v/ in 2019. Fueled by the power of memes, nanomachines voting machines, and sheer patriotism, Armstrong dominated the entire tournament from start to finish. His victims include two humanoid robots, a pink little shit, a dense motherfucker, a Russian, a limp-dick lawyer, and a demon-slaying space marine. Because of his victory, he is banned from participating in future King of /v/ tournaments, but his legacy as the original King will live on.

What!?

Nice knife. (crushes sword in half)

(fighting ensues)

Typical politician... Big promises, but all talk.

What?

"Jump-start the economy"?

What a load of BULLSHIT! All you care about is lining your own pockets! That, and your approval ratings! You've got no principles, just like all the rest!

If America's gone to shit, then you're just another maggot crawling in the pile.

(chuckles) All right, the truth then.

You're right about one thing.

I do need capital. And votes. Wanna know why? I HAVE A DREAM!

What?

That one day, every person in this nation will control their own destiny. A land of the TRULY free, dammit. A nation of ACTION, not words; ruled by STRENGTH, not committee! Where the law changes to suit the individual, NOT the other way around. Where power and justice are back where they belong, in the hands of the PEOPLE!

(headbutts)

Where every man is free... to think... to act... for HIMSELF! Fuck all these limp-dick lawyers and chicken-shit bureaucrats.

Fuck this 24/7 Internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit!

Fuck American pride. Fuck the MEDIA!

FUCK ALL OF IT!!!

America is diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving it. We need to pull it out by the roots. Wipe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN!

And from the ashes a new America will be BORN! Evolved, but UNTAMED!

The weak will be purged, and the strongest will thrive, free to live as they see fit; they'll make America GREAT AGAIN!!!

What the hell are you.. talking about...

You still don't get it. I'm using war as a business to get ELECTED! So I can End war as a business.

In my new America, people will die, and kill, for what they BELIEVE! Not for money, not for OIL! Not for what they're told is right. Every man will be free to fight his OWN WARS!

...

(pulls out lighter and smokes) So, what do you think?

How the hell did you.. get elected?
