** Ducky: Melancholic/Phlegmatic. Analytical, loyal, witty, more of a follower but also tends to see the worst in people and seems to be kind of insecure.
** Rick: Phlegmatic/Sanguine. Cheerful, open-minded, optimistic, forgiving, polite, compassionate, but tends to be gullible, overly idealistic and timid.
** Bush's Wife: Sanguine/Choleric. Energetic, passionate, unpredictable, quirky and eccentric TheBigGuy of the team, but also emotionally unstable, hyperactive, impulsive and slightly psychotic.
* RudeHeroNiceSidekick: Bush and Rick in a nutshell.
* TrueCompanions: They are family no matter what. Even you, Rick.
* UndyingLoyalty: They are consistently loyal to each other.

* AfraidOfNeedles: The only reason he tags along with the Proxies on their adventure in "To Proxy Mountain" is solely to avoid getting a flu shot.
** He '''really''' doesn't like Russia.

* TheCaptain: The commander of the US Army.
* DrillSargentNasty: He subjects people to all sorts of difficult and demeaning tasks.
* TheLeader: Of the United States.
* ProperlyParanoid: Played with. His suspicions are so wild and irrational that no normal person would have them, ranging from robot clones to world-wide Russian hackings. He's always suspicious of new arrivals and has occasionally accused his friends of being brainwashed or enemies in disguise when they disagree with him. And yet he's often right. Then again, sometimes he isn't.
* {{Adorkable}}: Especially when he thinks the Proxies are ready to turn over a new leaf.
* BadassAdorable: If only due to how optimistic he is.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Bush is probably the nicest character in the comic, but if you make him angry, watch your back. This is the same guy who held off half the Los Angeles police department with a ''mini-gun''.
* CannotTellAJoke: He tries, but they're never funny.

!!President Eugine Fisher Bush a.k.a Pid'jin
[[quoteright:179:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/download_4.jpeg]]
[[caption-width-right:179:"These brave men died for their country. Send money to their bitches and hos."]]
The dimwitted President of the United States of America. He has been in every single American war since WW1. He is aware of the Proxies existence but allows them to kill as long as they pay him. Despite his goofy behavior, he can occasionally show hints of brilliance.
----
* AbhorrentAdmirer: He occasionally goes to Los Angeles to stalk celebrates. He has no problem with getting a total stranger to beat up, kill, mug and harass celebrates he "loves" on his behalf.
* TheAce: He's a sniper, a master martial artist, and regularly joins the Proxies in saving the multiverse.
* AcrophobicBird: He never learned to fly.
* ActionDad
* AdultsAreUseless: Bush is probably one of the most inefficient presidents in US history.
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: To Ducky. Bush often tries to use slang to relate with her, resulting in her stating that what he's saying is outdated.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Many episodes imply he suffers from Alzheimer's. He also suffers from PTSD as a result of being in every single American war after WW1.
* AnimalsNotToScale: He's rather big for a duck, measuring up to Jeff's hips.
* AntiRoleModel: Is an alcoholic, a war criminal, racist, and a {{jerkass}}.
* AristocratsAreEvil: He's apparently a lord and a very unpleasant person.
* AtLeastIAdmitit: His political campaign amounts to, "Yes, I'm a dick. But would you rather vote for an unabashed {{Jerkass}} or a BitchInSheepsClothing?"
* AttentionWhore: He loves being in the spotlight.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He's the President of the United States. He's also fought in every single American war and can still fight well without his age hindering him.
* AxCrazy: He is clearly not mentally stable, and it's implied he is a SerialKiller not unlike the Proxies.
* BadassAdorable: Whenever he brings out his puppy dog eyes.
* BadassNormal: Maybe, maybe not. It's hard to tell whether he's a normal duck or not.
* BashBrothers: With Rick Bernstein on many occasions.
* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Bush can inexplicitly breathe in the vacuum of space. When BEN asks why, Bush's explanation is [[HandWave tuned out by Jeff's singing]].
* BerserkButton:
** If you touch or steal any of his money, you might not want to drink or eat anything for a while. Or walk out in the open.
** Making fun of his size is a good enough excuse for him to turn you into live target practice for his army.
** He once gave BEN a black eye for calling him "Feathers". [[note]]When he was in the military, "Feathers" was an insult used by Bush's drill sergeant to humiliate him, although BEN was unaware of this.[[/note]]
* BerserkerTears: When BEN calls him "Feathers".
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's very stupid and goofy, but he's got thousands of soldiers, mercenaries, and nukes at his disposal. Seriously, he can go from being delightfully silly one moment to being an AxCrazy psychopath the next.
* BiTheWay: Which is ironic considering Bush's disdain for anything gay/bi.
* BigEater: "Boys vs Girls" also epitomizes this, as he brags about men being able to eat a Deluxe Whopper Sr. in one bite, then proceeding to eat the whole thing in one bite.
* BigWhat: His reaction to X jump-scaring him and the Proxies is to shout "'''WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAt?! WHAT?! WhAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAAAAAAAAT?!!!!''' in a confused panic.
* BrattyHalfPint: Very small, very spoiled.
* TheBully: He basically treats everyone like trash just to make himself feel better.
* BumblingDad: Although Duck loves him anyway.
* TheCaligula: During his reign as president, he has used the USA's funds to get revenge on his enemies list, forced the population of Michigan to build a giant statue of himself, and committed pretty much every single crime in the book.
* CanonForeigner
* CantTakeCriticism: Doesn't take being called out by others well. He runs to his room crying when Sally roasts him for being a bad president.
* TheCasanova: Provided his wife isn't around to see it.
* CerebusSyndrome: His ForgetfulJones tendencies get a bit grimmer when some episodes imply Bush suffers from Alzheimer's.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Originally, he was just a very violent and stoic (if dim-witted) president. Later, his personality shifted to a paranoid, very stupid, and incredibly delusional soldier who sees the USA as a war zone.
* ChildHater: Bush does not like children because they are loud and constantly smash his windows with their footballs.
-->'''Bush''': I just don't understand kids these days. Remind me to sign that abortion bill.
* ComedicSociopath: He's prone to antics that are devoid of concern for the people he hurts and (mostly) hilarious.
* ControlFreak: He seems to want full control over everybody's personal life; for example, he orders the American people to give up smoking pot or else he'll increase their taxes.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Could easily rival Jeff in this trope.
* ColonelBadass: As seen in "Blast to the Past Part 2"
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When he sees a traumatized jeff running from his doctor in the nude after an attempted prostate exam:
-->"Ugh, get a tan!"
* ConspicuousConsumption: His briefcase, containing the nuclear codes, is solid gold.
* ConspiracyTheorist: He firmly believes that Russians are out to take over the USA and is convinced a world-wide Russian hacking will take place in the near future.
* CoolCar: His presidential armored limo. It has a ''mounted mini-gun'' on the top, can send out spike strips, and can spew toxic gas from the exhaust in case of emergency.
* CoolChair: His chair in his office, which functions as a ''jetpack''.
%%%* CoolOldGuy:
* CorruptCorporateExecutive
* TheCorrupter: Under his influence, Sally becomes a RichBitch.
* CorruptPolitician: He is ''very'' greedy, selfish and can easily be bribed with money.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He might be scrawny, cowardly and the stupidest character on the comic (which says something when you see his competition) but put his friends and family in danger around him and all bets are off. He actually destroyed an entire military platoon when his men were threatened.
* DadTheVeteran: He has been in every single American war since WW1 and is now a father to Ducky and also to an unnamed son.
* DepravedBisexual: He is married to a woman, but he is heavily implied to have sexual attractions to Laughing Jack, Enderman, and BEN.
* DirtyCoward: He's fearless in some occasions, to be sure, but in others, he's an iron-fisted tyrant who nonetheless cowers as soon as a bigger bully than him shows up. He's used Rick and the Proxies as human shields more than once.
* DirtyOldMan: Bush is a pervy old man, and loves letting every woman around know it.
* TheDitz: Arguably more than ''Jeff''.`
** "To Proxy Mountian" shows that Bush is so incredibly uneducated that he cannot even read properly. Case in point, he misreads "Don't touch the hyperdrive" as "Touch to earn free money".
* DotingGrandparent: Shows just as much love to Ducky's children than he does her.
* DotingParent: He spoils his daughter rotten.
* DrunkWithPower: Almost all the time. It's implied his first law that he passes gave him "political power over everything".
* {{Eagleland}}: He's got a beef against anything he thinks is un-American, like being a Beatnik or people not born in (nor probably concerned with standing behind the politics of) America.
* EasilyForgiven: No matter how badly he treats the Proxies or how heinous his actions may be, he will always be back in the Proxies' good graces by the end of the comic. A particularly noticeable example was when uses (and abuses) Smile to steal money and loose change from all of Washington, completely uncaring that attracting money causes Smile great discomfort.
* EccentricMillionaire: He has incredibly deep pockets and is perpetually filled with energy.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: This is literally the first conversation he has in the comic.
-->'''Bush''': Alien forces threatening the world, civil unrest, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking I forgot to buy the groceries]]. And who the hell is this Lara Watkins? If what she says is true, we're facing an unprecedented crisis. Get me the president
-->'''Rick Berntien''': You ''are'' the president, sir.
-->'''Bush''': Good. Then I already know about this. Let's order lunch.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Through and through he loves his grandchildren and his daughter, Ducky. He even fought a shark just to get Ducky's purse back!
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He doesn't take kindly to people disrespecting America and the American Way.
* TheEveryman: How Bush views himself, and therefore how the viewer is supposed to see him.
* EvilIsPetty: Very much so.
* EvilOldFolks: Oh, yeah.
* {{Expy}}: His personality is basically an exaggerated version of UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump. Funny enough, Comickit came up with the idea of President Bush [[HilariousInHindsight ''before'' Trump ran for presidency]]
* FamilyMan: If Bush has any significant redeeming qualities, it's that he loves his family more than anything else. He's willing to take bullets for his daughter and her children, and literally caught a grenade for his wife.
* FictionFiveHundred: Bush's many businesses have allowed him to become extremely rich. Case in point, Bush owns multiple mansions across the United States, as well as hotels. He also owns his own space station with multiple spaceships at the ready, all equipped with laser guns.
* FlashbackStares: A common RunningGag with Bush is to have him stop what he's doing and stare blankly as a flashback occurs, followed by ear-piercing screaming and tank fire.
* FlatEarthAtheist: Bush repeatedly claims that he refuses to believe in magic, even when faced with Ms. P, Slenderman, and Zalgo.
* FriendToAllChildren: As long as you're an American child at least.
* TheFool: It's a wonder he hasn't been impeached yet.
* ForgetfulJones: Whether it's when to fold the sheets, or to remember where the nuclear codes are, he will likely forget it. Possibly {{Justified}}, as some episodes imply Bush suffers from Alzheimer's.
* FourStarBadass: As stated above, he was in the military for all two World Wars and the Vietnam war.
* {{Gasshole}}: Likes to fart and burp a lot.
* {{Greed}}: His entire life revolves around money, to the point where he has difficulty giving up a penny.
* GoGoEnslavement: It is heavily implied that the affair he had was not an affair, but that Bush is involved in sex trafficking if his comment about the film where Liam Neeson rescues his daughter is any indication.
* GuileHero: Sometimes.
* GunNut: '''HELL YES'''. One of his defining character traits is that he's obsessed with guns. He frequently to ridiculous levels, to the point of taking baths with bullet shells instead of water.
* HairTriggerTemper: When it comes to money, he can get explosively angry. Seriously you can hurt and kill his employees and he won't care, but so much as touch his money and he will flip the entire world around trying to hurt you.
* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Wears a suit with no pants.
* HarmfulToMinors: When he's reading a book to a bunch of pre-school children.
-->'''Bush''': Today's story is ''Ralph the Overly Aggressive Aardvark''. "''Meet Ralph the Overly Aggressive Aardvark! He loved smoking and watching porn''." ''[to the kids]'' I like him already. "''Ralph was the angriest aardvark in all the land. But Ralph was often too angry for his own good. During an important meeting at work, Ralph knocked over his boss' mug in a blind rage. 'What the fuck do you want me to do, you fuckin' schmuck?!', he roared. 'This is no laughing matter,' said Ralph's boss, Mr. Grasshopper. 'The company's hemorrhaging money.' 'Go fuck yourself with a big black cock!' Ralph cried out. 'Wipe that fucking smirk off your face!' exclaimed Mr. Grasshopper. 'SECURITY, PLEASE ESCORT RALPH OUT OF THE BUILDING!' Mr. Grasshopper commanded. Things also begun spiraling out of control at home. 'YOU'RE PROJECTING YOUR INSECURITIES ONTO ME!' said Ralph's wife, who was even more of a bitch than he was. She picked up a vase and hurled it at the wall! Shattered ceramic littered the floor. 'I'M LEAVING YOU, RALPH THE OVERLY AGGRESSIVE AARDVARK!'"'' ''[back to the children]'' Now shits really hitting the fan. ''"Ralph peered over to find his children cowering in fear at what they had witnessed. 'Your mothers a fucking cunt.'"'' ''[Bush flips the page to show Ralph with a prostitute]'' ''"'How much?', Ralph asked his new female companion. Ralph ate dinner over the kitchen sink that night. The End."'' Now, before I show you this next one, has anyone here ever heard of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally?
* TheHedonist: He seems to live entirely to have fun while neglecting his job as president.
* HealingFactor: He can somehow regenerate limbs with no problem.
* HeManWomanHater: Bush is often presented as the classic misogynist, thinking he's superior in every way and that other women are unworthy of anything other than satisfying his and other men's whims and desires, and woe be it on them if they object. He frequently thinks nothing of women other than sex objects and gets into a huge argument when others point this out.
* HenpeckedHusband: A genuinely romantic example, but Bush is somewhat afraid of his wife. After seeing her decimate an entire terrorist army, it's easy to see why he's afraid of her.
* HeyYou: This is basically how he greets people, rarely ever calling them by their names.
* HomemadeInventions: Bush is fond of these. Surprisingly, some of them actually work.
* HonestJohnsDealership: The guy is a swindler. Among other things, he sells fake tickets, expired milk, and lemon cars.
* {{Hotblooded}}: It doesn't take a lot to get him riled up.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Honestly thought Zalgo was a nice guy.
* IdiotBall: Holds it in "To Proxy Mountain" like its his first born child.
* IdiotHero: The "hero" part is a little subjective though.
* IdiotHoudini: If it wasn't for the Proxies or Rick, his antics would've gotten him in huge trouble or even killed on several occasions.
* IdleRich: He is the richest "man" in the world and is a LazyBum in every sense of the word.
* InopportuneVoiceCracking: His voice tends to crack whenever he screams, almost sounding like a pig squealing.
* InspectorJavert: He firmly believes everyone in Russia is evil.
* InsultBackfire:
-->'''Rick Steinback''': Mr. President, have you gone completely insane?!
-->'''Bush''': Like a fox!
* ItAmusedMe: A lot of the messed up things he does to other people are for his own amusement.
** He once started a war between Pakistan and India just to escape boredom.
** In one instance, President Bush convinces Jeff and BEN to paint the inside of his house, but states that the paint in question is permanent and if they get even a single drop on anything but the walls, he will chop their butts off and mount them over the fireplace. They accidentally get it on his prized military pistol, and President Bush simply licks the paint off and reveals that the paint is actually saliva-soluable. When he tells them that he told them as such just to mess with them, Jeff and BEN are not happy and immediately leave in disgust.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Bush makes it his mission to make sure the world revolves around him and him only.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's a colossal douchebag who is occasionally very unsympathetic.
* JerkassHasAPoint: A recurring gag is that Bush is constantly paranoid around the subject of Russians because he believes they are all evil. If "Motherland" is any indication, he's wasn't entirely wrong after all.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: All that being said, he does genuinely love his children, grandchildren, Rick, and the Proxies, and regularly shows it.
* KarmaHoudini: Bush has gotten away with assault, murder, robbery, counterfeiting, kidnapping, arson, rape, fraud, slavery, drug and weapon dealing, kidnapping, espionage, human rights violations, spousal abuse, treason, war crimes— in short, pretty much every felony on the book. He's a jerk at work and to his family and friends. His mind is constantly occupied with lewd thoughts and freely uses foul language. He invades other countries and steals their resources (especially oil) and pollutes the environment without a care in the world. The guy should be either dead or, as Ms. P (rather hypocritically) once said, in jail. Yet, he walks free, he proclaims himself as "everyman," and he still has everything he holds dear: he's still president of the United States, still has a trillion dollar bank account, and he has a family and good friends. There are quite a few people who are actually aware of his crimes against humanity. It's just Bush sends his [[HeKnowsTooMuch hitmen to deal with them before they can testify in court.]]
** KarmaHoudiniWarranty: While he does get away with a lot of horrible deeds, episodes such as "The Closet" (where he loses the money he obtained using the refrigerator magnet in Smile's stomach when the doctor takes it as payment for the medical bill) and "Proxy Caper" (where he is forced to give away free guns as punishment for stealing his own ammo and guns to get out of paying for delivery) end with him getting a suitable comeuppance.
* KillerRabbit: Who would've expected a duck to kick so much ass?
* KillItWithIce: Outside of sniping and poison, his preferred method of disposing of people is locking them in his freezer.
* KnightTemplar: His occasional treatment of the American People leans towards believing that he's in the right by going to extremes. Early on he was merely defending his business from his schemes, now he seems to take offense even when American citizens are making legitimate profits or merely aren't miserable.
* LackOfEmpathy: Bush casually brushes off any pain or anguish he causes as people being too "preachy" or "childish".
* LastNameBasis: Pretty much everyone (except Bush's wife and sometimes Rick) calls him Bush. Even his drivers license just says "Pres. Bush".
* LaughablyEvil: Every single misdeed he's done whether it be murder, sex slavery, or vandalism, is PlayedForLaughs.
* LawfulNeutral: Is aligned with this In-Universe.
* LazyBum: Most of his daily activities consists of eating chips, chilling in his pool, and watching TV.
* LethallyStupid: More than a few of his employees have been killed during his stupid antics. Empathized in "To Proxy Mountain", where it's almost guaranteed everything will go horribly wrong because of his idiocy.
* LoveHungry: He has the tendency to react ''badly'' when he thinks his friendship with the Proxies is under jeopardy.
* TheMadHatter: Take a look at his quote for the InsultBackfire section.
* MadeOfIron: He has cartoonish durability and has survived being run over by a truck and rammed by a bull.
* {{Manchild}}: He has the personality and reasoning of a four-year-old. Borders on PsychopathicManChild at times.
* TheMillstone: Becomes this in "To Proxy Mountain". Whenever the Proxies have a plan, Bush is sure to screw it up, or do something stupid to make their situation worse.
* MisterBig: He's the president of the United States and thus one of the biggest figures in the world, just not in stature.
* MoneyFetish: The staple of his character.
* MoralityPet: About the only people he's nice to is his daughter and her grandchildren.
* NeverMyFault: Whenever his schemes go wrong, he usually frames someone else; for example, he blames Jeff for "killing" the human resource expert with their poisonous hamburger even though he himself made the idea in the first place. When Jeff reminds him that it was his idea, Bush retorts, "Well, you could've talked me out of it!" That, however, is another example of this trope, as he had explicitly threatened to turn Jeff in if he didn't assist him in the scheme.
* NonIndicativeName: He is actually a duck, not a pigeon, apparently.
* NoodleIncident: This exchange:
-->'''Rick Bernstein''': I've come up with two locations that will fit our vacation parameters.
-->'''Karen''': Denmark.
-->'''President Bush''': I can't step foot in Denmark.
-->'''Ducky''': Why not?
-->'''President Bush''': Well, that's private, Ducky. Between me and the Danes.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Possibly. Certain episodes imply Bush is not really stupid, but a sociopath who does stupid and often assholish things on ''purpose'' just because he knows his low intelligence (or facade of it) and high political status will keep him from punishment.
--> Is it almost time to ruin the United States?! Rick, don't start without me!
* OldSoldier: He solo'd an entire platoon of soldiers in Vietnam. It can a little hard to believe that he's a little over ''100'' years old.
* OneManArmy:
** He is able to hold off an entire SWAT team during the MexicanStandoff in "Good Ol' Days".
** In "Motherland", Bush defeats Ms. P, Jeff, BEN, Eyeless Jack, and Smile by himself [[spoiler: while brainwashed by Russians]]. Not even Slenderman's most elite Proxies can do much against him. Granted, the team was trying to distract him, not actually harm him, but it still shows just how strong and downright ''powerful'' Bush is when he fights seriously.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The main reason he allows the Proxies to murder humans.
* OurPresidentsAreDifferent: A good mix of Corrupt, Jerkass, Buffoon, Lunatic, and Evil. His speech at the United Nations should give you a good indication of what type of president he is.
-->'''Bush''': Hello. I'm here today at the.. [''looks at the U.N emblem''].....un. So, an Indian, a Frenchman, and the Pope are all on a plane. The pilot says, "Hey, are any of you not circumcised?" So the Pope lifts up his robe and says, "Shut up, stupid! You don't even speak English!" The Israeli asks the Japanese guy to open his eyes, but the Japanese man says, "I'm not squinting you crazy Jew, you're the one who sold me these cheap glasses!" What's the difference between a Belgian and a lump of dog shit? The Belgian drinks wine, but the dog shit smells good.
* PapaWolf: Utterly annihilated a gang of French terrorists when they kidnapped Ducky and her grandchildren.
* ParentalSubstitute: In some episodes, he acts as a grandfather for the Proxies.
* ParentsAsPeople: To his demeaning daughter.
* PaedoHunt: Quite possibly, he's the only lead protagonist-type character in the series implied to have strong sexual feelings toward children.
* PhlebotinumKilledTheDinosaurs: Apparently, Bush was the one who dropped the nuke on Hiroshima.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: As shown in "Proxyville" when he gives the Rake a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown. He even lifts the Rake over his head and tosses him across a hallway with little visible effort.
* PluckyComicRelief: His moronic antics can sometimes be the only source of levity in the more serious episodes.
* PoisonousFriend: In "To Proxy Mountain", Bush is willing to sacrifice the Proxies because he "lived a full life." This was actually lampshaded by the Rake, who says sarcastically "Great friend you got there."
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He hates Jews, Mexicans, Asians.... Pretty much anyone who isn't American. He also charges black people more to attend his rallies. He's also an elitist, as he tells a homeless man and his family right in their faces that their lives don't matter if there is no money in their bank accounts.
* PresidentEvil: He can be fairly tyrannical, selfish and cruel. He even let's Slenderman and the Proxies commit murder in the Human World as long as they pay him a quick buck every week.
* PsychoPrototype: It's hinted in one episode that he was the result of a botched cloning attempt that resulted in a duck/human hybrid. Reinforced when Jeff tells its creator, Mayor Bigmouth, after learning this that they need to have a little talk.
* RetiredBadass: He served in ''both'' World Wars.
* RichBastard: Oh, yeah. Ignoring the fact he's essentially turned the United States into a dictatorship, he's mocking of the unfortunate or middle-class.
* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Bush is basically the grandfather of this trope.
* ScatterbrainedSenior: If you thought Jeff was stupid, you ain't seen nothing yet.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Whenever he freaks out.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: Being polite is not a very big priority for him.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: His solution to every problem.
* SeniorSleepCycle: He tends to falls asleep in traffic.
* SerialKiller: It's strongly suggested that he is one. He flatly admits to poisoning other electoral opponents to eliminate the competition; it's strongly suggested that his gardener "got sick" and "fell" off a cliff, that his former vice president "met the shallow end of a shovel at the deep end of a grave" and died recently, and that his 13th accountant choked to death on her own hand, with the strong implication that Bush killed all three.
* ShellShockedVeteran: Many episodes imply that Bush was traumatized and suffered from major PTSD after the many wars he battled in. For instance, when Rick wakes him up from sleep, Bush screams and yells "EVERYONE HEAD TO THE BUNKERS! WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!!"
* SirSwearsALot: Whenever he's in a sticky situation. He especially loves the words "cocksucking" and "fuck". The motto for his campaign was even "Because fuck everyone else!"
* TheSixthRanger: He often tags along with the Proxies on their escapades.
* SmallNameBigEgo: He's shown signs of this more than a few times, like when he forced a group of orphans to build a statue of himself. Primarily it's just him thinking he's gorgeous or him thinking others think highly of him.
* StaircaseTumble: In "Proxyland", Jeff shoves him down a flight of stairs and locks him in the basement.
* TheStoner: Such a stoner that he's tried to stage a "Smoke-In" at city hall for shits and giggles. After BEN gets Bush all the drugs he asks for in order to stage one, he and his entire administration get so high off their own stash they completely forget about it.
* SuperStrength: He's been shown to be able to lift the White House and punch ''tanks'' into bits and pieces. In one episode, he ''pushes'' a mountain that was blocking his view out of the way. On another occasion, he managed to simultaneously overpower Jeff, Ms. P, BEN and Eyeless Jack.
* TechnologicallyBlindElders: He needed to be shown how to open a laptop and once destroyed a microwave because he couldn't get it to work
* TinyGuyHugeGirl: The Tiny Guy to his wife's Huge Girl.
* TooDumbToLive:
** [[SarcasmMode Surely selling nuclear arms to North Korea all for a few thousand bucks was the best he's had in mind, right?]] The fact that he told Rick to send more nukes to double his profit? [[EpicFail Bonus points!]]
** In "To Proxy Mountain", Bush nearly gets himself and the Proxies killed numerous times because of his stupidity.
* TooIncompetentToOperateABlanket: He's shown being needing to be talked through the simplest task, like how to open a book that teaches him ''how to count''.
* TookALevelInDumbass: He's noticeably less pragmatic and more stupid in "To Proxy Mountain".
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Bush has a notable love for eggnog around the holidays.
* TriggerHappy: His first action to any problem is to grab a rocket launcher.
* TheUnapologetic: It takes a lot of effort to make Bush feel bad for his action.
* UngratefulBastard:
** The Proxies save his life several times in "To Proxy Mountain" and he doesn't even bother thanking them.
** On on occasion, a Russia diplomat donated his kidney to ''save his life'' and yet he still thinks all Russians are evil. Obviously, this is Played for Laughs and it's meant to show that Bush is stupid and delusional rather than outright evil.
* UpperClassTwit: UpToEleven.
* VagueAge: Can never decide if he's 95 or over 100 years old.
* VillainProtagonist: Easily up in the top three with the most morally bankrupt protagonists in the show, which is saying a ''lot''.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Rick Bernstein.
* VocalDissonance: According to Comickit, if there was a live-action ''Pastamonsters'' movie, they would have Leslie Nielsen voice Bush (although they sadly commented on how that's not possible anymore).
* WackyParentSeriousChild: Ducky is hardly serious, but she sure looks like it compared to him.
* WhyAreYouNotMySon: Considers the Proxies to be his grandchildren.
* WhyCouldntYouBeDifferent: He wanted Ducky to be a boy.
* WouldHitAGirl: He was perfectly willing to "ice" Lara alongside Laughing Jack, at least until Ducky walked in and stopped him beforehand.
* WouldHurtAChild:
** He once gave BEN a black eye simply for calling him "Feathers".
** He's also perfectly fine with kidnapping schoolgirls and selling them to overseas sex slavery.
** He ''accelerates'' his car when he see's it's about to hit a baby stroller. [[SlasherSmile The look on Bush's face says it all.]]
* XMustNotWin: Even when the Russians are making legitimate profits, Bush will go out of his way to sabotage it.
* YourCheatingHeart: Bush has cheated on his wife many times.

* ButtMonkey: Despite being a competent fighter and skilled planner, Rick is repeatedly humiliated and ridiculed by Bush, Jeff, and Ducky.
* CanonForeigner
* TheCape: He's a total boy scout when it comes to morality and manners.
* CarpetOfVirility: Rick, underneath his suit, is rather hairy.
* CatchPhrase: Typically introduces himself by saying "Rick Bernstein, I work for the government."
* ChildhoodFriends: With Bush, according to himself.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: He's this to Bush. Although, sometimes he can be just as crazy as him.
* ClusterFBomb: His reaction to running out of bullets.
---> '''Rick''': [[PrecisionFStrike Motherfucking titty-sucking two-balled bitch!]]
* TheComicallySerious: He's a protagonist in ''Pastamonsters''. Of course, he gets made fun of a lot.
* {{Cuckold}}: Willingly lets the underaged BEN sleep with his (fourth) wife in exchange for Black Stuff. BEN is understandably [[EvenEvilHasStandards shocked.]] He also lets Bush finger his wife.
* HonoraryUncle: Ducky calls him "Uncle Rick".
* IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: [[spoiler: In "To Proxy Mountain", when BEN is about to fire the Ultimate Weapon (the spiked turtle from Mario) at Enderman's ship, Rick tries to convince BEN to be a bigger man than Enderman and spare his life, but BEN just rolls his eyes and launches the turtle anyway. He then tells Rick that being a hero isn't worth sparing the lives of horrible people and mocks him, saying "not everyone monitors a hall like you".]]
* TheLancer: To President Bush.
* TheMenInBlack: Sometimes wears this attire.
* NiceGuy: He is easily one of the most polite characters on the comic, trying to encourage the Proxies to become heroes. Unlike Bush, he's more sensible and has a good moral compass.
* NoRespectGuy: Neither Bush nor the Proxies respect him.
* OneManArmy: In "Good Ol' Days", he single-handedly holds off half of the police force and ''forces them to retreat'' during the MexicanStandoff. That includes a horde of dirty cops and dirty military personnel with access to a tank. That's straight up GTA protagonist stuff right there.
* PapaWolf: Rick is only working with Bush because he wants to put his kids through college.
* TheParagon: He tries ''so hard'' to be this to the Proxies.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Has this opinion of the Proxies, whom he wants to make agents out of.

[[folder:Ducky]]
!!Ducky
President Bush's beloved teenage daughter, who is also a duck. Her brain is the largest in Washington, DC (certainly bigger than her father's) and she is gifted in math, but she is still young and immature. She is a mother of 5. Her father hopes to pass his presidency onto her when she gets older.
----
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: She has her moments.
* BuxomIsBetter: She has a ''huge'' chest.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm telling my dad!"
* CuteAndPsycho: Don't piss her off or you'll regret it the rest of your life.
* DaddysGirl: She and Bush are obviously very close, and she's his MoralityPet. Jeff calls her "Daddy's Whore" at one point.
* TheDitz: Just like her dad she's not very bright or intelligent.
* GenkiGirl: Constantly bouncing around and shouting when confronting Bush about something she wants.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: Her room, even as a girl pushing 20, if filled with stuffed animals.
* HiddenDepths: Comickit claims that she has the biggest brain in Washington, DC and she's pretty good at math.
* InformedAbility: According to Comickit, she's the smartest citizen in Washington, but there has never been a comic focusing on her intelligence. There have, however, been instances where it implies she only acts like a regular teenager to fit in.
* ItsAllAboutMe: She claims that on her birthday everyone in the world has to pay attention to her.
* JerkassBall: When she makes fun of Jeff for being ugly.
* MoralityPet: Bush instantly drops his tyrannical attitude when she shows up.
* RichBitch: Sorta.
* SpoiledBrat: She has shades of this.
* TookALevelInJerkass: She's progressively becoming more ruder as the comic grows. This likely has something to do with her father's greediness.
* ValleyGirl: She's got the terminology down pat.

[[folder:President Bush's Wife]]
!!President Bush's Wife
The beloved (and, usually loving) spouse of President Bush and First Lady of the United States. A woman of considerable size and powerful moods, good and bad. When enraged, she becomes an elemental force of raw destruction (and insults).
----
* ActionMom: When enraged, she can turn into one badass OneWomanArmy.
* AffectionateNickname: Bush gives all sorts of pet names like "Muffin".
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: She is (presumably) faster and stronger than Bush, Jeff, and BEN.
* BadassNormal: Is just an average duck, but is able to solo an entire terrorist organization.
* BerserkButton: Make fun of her size or threaten her family (or friends of her family) and you're in for a bad time.
* BirdsOfAFeather: She is just as boisterous and thick-headed as her husband.
* BloodKnight: It's pretty clear she loves a good fight and is all too eager to throw herself into the fray.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: While she can be unbelievably powerful and so destructive that she makes a hurricane look like a bad drizzle, in better circumstances she's very nice and dearly loves her husband (and she's not afraid to show it).
* BuxomIsBetter: Much like her daughter.
* DeadpanSnarker: Throws around sarcasm like there's no tomorrow.
* DotingParent: Loves Duck just as much as Bush.
* FatBitch: She's fat and can be very demanding. [[BerserkButton Just don't mention her weight in front of her, though]].
* GoodIsNotNice: A loving mother and wife above all else, but is not afraid (even a little ''eager'') to use lethal methods of her enemies.
* GroinAttack: Does this to a terrorist strong enough that it sends his ''head flying off his body''.
* HairTriggerTemper: If you know what's good for you, do not make her angry. Hell, even her own husband, who has fought in almost every war in American history, is afraid of just the thought of angering her, and her husband is ''President Bush'', who is usually willing to stand up to anyone ([[spoiler: keep in mind that Bush defeated Jeff, BEN, Eyeless Jack, and Ms. P simultaneously in one episode]])
* HappilyMarried: Considering how long they've been together, you would think her and Bush's love would have died years ago. Yet it's still as strong as ever today. Look at how many kids and grandkids they have.
* ImmuneToBullets: And the terrorists find this out the hard way.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Kills several terrorists with a car door, a walking stick, and a lawnmower.
* LadyOfWar: Strong enough to single-handedly bring down an entire terrorist organization.

* MamaBear: To not just Bush, but friends of Bush as well.
* NeverMessWithGranny: Is almost or slightly older than Bush, but can kick just as much ass.
* NoNameGiven: Her name is never revealed, though it's implied it stars with an "A".
* OneWomanArmy: Defeated a whole terrorist army which Jeff, BEN, and even Bush were not able to defeat!
* SirSwearsALot: Even more than her husband does.
* StoutStrength: She's even more of a powerhouse than her husband, who is already a match for the Proxies. When she gets angry, entire buildings collapse in her wake. She doesn't even need a weapon to take out a terrorist organization army.
* UnskilledButStrong: She lacks the military training her husband does but makes up for it with brute strength.
* WomanAreWiser: She is wiser than her husband. Not that she isn't exactly "wise".

!!President Eugine Fisher Bush a.k.a Pid'jin
[[quoteright:179:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/download_4.jpeg]]
[[caption-width-right:179:"These brave men died for their country. Send money to their bitches and hos."]]
The dimwitted President of the United States of America. He has been in every single American war since WW1. He is aware of the Proxies existence but allows them to kill as long as they pay him. Despite his goofy behavior, he can occasionally show hints of brilliance.
----
* AbhorrentAdmirer: He occasionally goes to Los Angeles to stalk celebrates. He has no problem with getting a total stranger to beat up, kill, mug and harass celebrates he "loves" on his behalf.
* TheAce: He's a sniper, a master martial artist, and regularly joins the Proxies in saving the multiverse.
* AcrophobicBird: He never learned to fly.
* ActionDad
* AdultsAreUseless: Bush is probably one of the most inefficient presidents in US history.
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: To Ducky. Bush often tries to use slang to relate with her, resulting in her stating that what he's saying is outdated.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Many episodes imply he suffers from Alzheimer's. He also suffers from PTSD as a result of being in every single American war after WW1.
* AnimalsNotToScale: He's rather big for a duck, measuring up to Jeff's hips.
* AntiRoleModel: Is an alcoholic, a war criminal, racist, and a {{jerkass}}.
* AristocratsAreEvil: He's apparently a lord and a very unpleasant person.
* AtLeastIAdmitit: His political campaign amounts to, "Yes, I'm a dick. But would you rather vote for an unabashed {{Jerkass}} or a BitchInSheepsClothing?"
* AttentionWhore: He loves being in the spotlight.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He's the President of the United States. He's also fought in every single American war and can still fight well without his age hindering him.
* AxCrazy: He is clearly not mentally stable, and it's implied he is a SerialKiller not unlike the Proxies.
* BadassAdorable: Whenever he brings out his puppy dog eyes.
* BadassNormal: Maybe, maybe not. It's hard to tell whether he's a normal duck or not.
* BashBrothers: With Rick Bernstein on many occasions.
* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Bush can inexplicitly breathe in the vacuum of space. When BEN asks why, Bush's explanation is [[HandWave tuned out by Jeff's singing]].
* BerserkButton:
** If you touch or steal any of his money, you might not want to drink or eat anything for a while. Or walk out in the open.
** Making fun of his size is a good enough excuse for him to turn you into live target practice for his army.
** He once gave BEN a black eye for calling him "Feathers". [[note]]When he was in the military, "Feathers" was an insult used by Bush's drill sergeant to humiliate him, although BEN was unaware of this.[[/note]]
* BerserkerTears: When BEN calls him "Feathers".
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's very stupid and goofy, but he's got thousands of soldiers, mercenaries, and nukes at his disposal. Seriously, he can go from being delightfully silly one moment to being an AxCrazy psychopath the next.
* BiTheWay: Which is ironic considering Bush's disdain for anything gay/bi.
* BigEater: "Boys vs Girls" also epitomizes this, as he brags about men being able to eat a Deluxe Whopper Sr. in one bite, then proceeding to eat the whole thing in one bite.
* BigWhat: His reaction to X jump-scaring him and the Proxies is to shout "'''WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAt?! WHAT?! WhAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAAAAAAAAT?!!!!''' in a confused panic.
* BrattyHalfPint: Very small, very spoiled.
* TheBully: He basically treats everyone like trash just to make himself feel better.
* BumblingDad: Although Duck loves him anyway.
* TheCaligula: During his reign as president, he has used the USA's funds to get revenge on his enemies list, forced the population of Michigan to build a giant statue of himself, and committed pretty much every single crime in the book.
* CanonForeigner
* CantTakeCriticism: Doesn't take being called out by others well. He runs to his room crying when Sally roasts him for being a bad president.
* TheCasanova: Provided his wife isn't around to see it.
* CerebusSyndrome: His ForgetfulJones tendencies get a bit grimmer when some episodes imply Bush suffers from Alzheimer's.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Originally, he was just a very violent and stoic (if dim-witted) president. Later, his personality shifted to a paranoid, very stupid, and incredibly delusional soldier who sees the USA as a war zone.
* ChildHater: Bush does not like children because they are loud and constantly smash his windows with their footballs.
-->'''Bush''': I just don't understand kids these days. Remind me to sign that abortion bill.
* ComedicSociopath: He's prone to antics that are devoid of concern for the people he hurts and (mostly) hilarious.
* ControlFreak: He seems to want full control over everybody's personal life; for example, he orders the American people to give up smoking pot or else he'll increase their taxes.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Could easily rival Jeff in this trope.
* ColonelBadass: As seen in "Blast to the Past Part 2"
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When he sees a traumatized jeff running from his doctor in the nude after an attempted prostate exam:
-->"Ugh, get a tan!"
* ConspicuousConsumption: His briefcase, containing the nuclear codes, is solid gold.
* ConspiracyTheorist: He firmly believes that Russians are out to take over the USA and is convinced a world-wide Russian hacking will take place in the near future.
* CoolCar: His presidential armored limo. It has a ''mounted mini-gun'' on the top, can send out spike strips, and can spew toxic gas from the exhaust in case of emergency.
* CoolChair: His chair in his office, which functions as a ''jetpack''.
%%%* CoolOldGuy:
* CorruptCorporateExecutive
* TheCorrupter: Under his influence, Sally becomes a RichBitch.
* CorruptPolitician: He is ''very'' greedy, selfish and can easily be bribed with money.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He might be scrawny, cowardly and the stupidest character on the comic (which says something when you see his competition) but put his friends and family in danger around him and all bets are off. He actually destroyed an entire military platoon when his men were threatened.
* DadTheVeteran: He has been in every single American war since WW1 and is now a father to Ducky and also to an unnamed son.
* DepravedBisexual: He is married to a woman, but he is heavily implied to have sexual attractions to Laughing Jack, Enderman, and BEN.
* DirtyCoward: He's fearless in some occasions, to be sure, but in others, he's an iron-fisted tyrant who nonetheless cowers as soon as a bigger bully than him shows up. He's used Rick and the Proxies as human shields more than once.
* DirtyOldMan: Bush is a pervy old man, and loves letting every woman around know it.
* TheDitz: Arguably more than ''Jeff''.`
** "To Proxy Mountian" shows that Bush is so incredibly uneducated that he cannot even read properly. Case in point, he misreads "Don't touch the hyperdrive" as "Touch to earn free money".
* DotingGrandparent: Shows just as much love to Ducky's children than he does her.
* DotingParent: He spoils his daughter rotten.
* DrunkWithPower: Almost all the time. It's implied his first law that he passes gave him "political power over everything".
* {{Eagleland}}: He's got a beef against anything he thinks is un-American, like being a Beatnik or people not born in (nor probably concerned with standing behind the politics of) America.
* EasilyForgiven: No matter how badly he treats the Proxies or how heinous his actions may be, he will always be back in the Proxies' good graces by the end of the comic. A particularly noticeable example was when uses (and abuses) Smile to steal money and loose change from all of Washington, completely uncaring that attracting money causes Smile great discomfort.
* EccentricMillionaire: He has incredibly deep pockets and is perpetually filled with energy.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: This is literally the first conversation he has in the comic.
-->'''Bush''': Alien forces threatening the world, civil unrest, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking I forgot to buy the groceries]]. And who the hell is this Lara Watkins? If what she says is true, we're facing an unprecedented crisis. Get me the president
-->'''Rick Berntien''': You ''are'' the president, sir.
-->'''Bush''': Good. Then I already know about this. Let's order lunch.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Through and through he loves his grandchildren and his daughter, Ducky. He even fought a shark just to get Ducky's purse back!
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He doesn't take kindly to people disrespecting America and the American Way.
* TheEveryman: How Bush views himself, and therefore how the viewer is supposed to see him.
* EvilIsPetty: Very much so.
* EvilOldFolks: Oh, yeah.
* {{Expy}}: His personality is basically an exaggerated version of UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump. Funny enough, Comickit came up with the idea of President Bush [[HilariousInHindsight ''before'' Trump ran for presidency]]
* FamilyMan: If Bush has any significant redeeming qualities, it's that he loves his family more than anything else. He's willing to take bullets for his daughter and her children, and literally caught a grenade for his wife.
* FictionFiveHundred: Bush's many businesses have allowed him to become extremely rich. Case in point, Bush owns multiple mansions across the United States, as well as hotels. He also owns his own space station with multiple spaceships at the ready, all equipped with laser guns.
* FlashbackStares: A common RunningGag with Bush is to have him stop what he's doing and stare blankly as a flashback occurs, followed by ear-piercing screaming and tank fire.
* FlatEarthAtheist: Bush repeatedly claims that he refuses to believe in magic, even when faced with Ms. P, Slenderman, and Zalgo.
* FriendToAllChildren: As long as you're an American child at least.
* TheFool: It's a wonder he hasn't been impeached yet.
* ForgetfulJones: Whether it's when to fold the sheets, or to remember where the nuclear codes are, he will likely forget it. Possibly {{Justified}}, as some episodes imply Bush suffers from Alzheimer's.
* FourStarBadass: As stated above, he was in the military for all two World Wars and the Vietnam war.
* {{Gasshole}}: Likes to fart and burp a lot.
* {{Greed}}: His entire life revolves around money, to the point where he has difficulty giving up a penny.
* GoGoEnslavement: It is heavily implied that the affair he had was not an affair, but that Bush is involved in sex trafficking if his comment about the film where Liam Neeson rescues his daughter is any indication.
* GuileHero: Sometimes.
* GunNut: '''HELL YES'''. One of his defining character traits is that he's obsessed with guns. He frequently to ridiculous levels, to the point of taking baths with bullet shells instead of water.
* HairTriggerTemper: When it comes to money, he can get explosively angry. Seriously you can hurt and kill his employees and he won't care, but so much as touch his money and he will flip the entire world around trying to hurt you.
* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Wears a suit with no pants.
* HarmfulToMinors: When he's reading a book to a bunch of pre-school children.
-->'''Bush''': Today's story is ''Ralph the Overly Aggressive Aardvark''. "''Meet Ralph the Overly Aggressive Aardvark! He loved smoking and watching porn''." ''[to the kids]'' I like him already. "''Ralph was the angriest aardvark in all the land. But Ralph was often too angry for his own good. During an important meeting at work, Ralph knocked over his boss' mug in a blind rage. 'What the fuck do you want me to do, you fuckin' schmuck?!', he roared. 'This is no laughing matter,' said Ralph's boss, Mr. Grasshopper. 'The company's hemorrhaging money.' 'Go fuck yourself with a big black cock!' Ralph cried out. 'Wipe that fucking smirk off your face!' exclaimed Mr. Grasshopper. 'SECURITY, PLEASE ESCORT RALPH OUT OF THE BUILDING!' Mr. Grasshopper commanded. Things also begun spiraling out of control at home. 'YOU'RE PROJECTING YOUR INSECURITIES ONTO ME!' said Ralph's wife, who was even more of a bitch than he was. She picked up a vase and hurled it at the wall! Shattered ceramic littered the floor. 'I'M LEAVING YOU, RALPH THE OVERLY AGGRESSIVE AARDVARK!'"'' ''[back to the children]'' Now shits really hitting the fan. ''"Ralph peered over to find his children cowering in fear at what they had witnessed. 'Your mothers a fucking cunt.'"'' ''[Bush flips the page to show Ralph with a prostitute]'' ''"'How much?', Ralph asked his new female companion. Ralph ate dinner over the kitchen sink that night. The End."'' Now, before I show you this next one, has anyone here ever heard of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally?
* TheHedonist: He seems to live entirely to have fun while neglecting his job as president.
* HealingFactor: He can somehow regenerate limbs with no problem.
* HeManWomanHater: Bush is often presented as the classic misogynist, thinking he's superior in every way and that other women are unworthy of anything other than satisfying his and other men's whims and desires, and woe be it on them if they object. He frequently thinks nothing of women other than sex objects and gets into a huge argument when others point this out.
* HenpeckedHusband: A genuinely romantic example, but Bush is somewhat afraid of his wife. After seeing her decimate an entire terrorist army, it's easy to see why he's afraid of her.
* HeyYou: This is basically how he greets people, rarely ever calling them by their names.
* HomemadeInventions: Bush is fond of these. Surprisingly, some of them actually work.
* HonestJohnsDealership: The guy is a swindler. Among other things, he sells fake tickets, expired milk, and lemon cars.
* {{Hotblooded}}: It doesn't take a lot to get him riled up.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Honestly thought Zalgo was a nice guy.
* IdiotBall: Holds it in "To Proxy Mountain" like its his first born child.
* IdiotHero: The "hero" part is a little subjective though.
* IdiotHoudini: If it wasn't for the Proxies or Rick, his antics would've gotten him in huge trouble or even killed on several occasions.
* IdleRich: He is the richest "man" in the world and is a LazyBum in every sense of the word.
* InopportuneVoiceCracking: His voice tends to crack whenever he screams, almost sounding like a pig squealing.
* InspectorJavert: He firmly believes everyone in Russia is evil.
* InsultBackfire:
-->'''Rick Steinback''': Mr. President, have you gone completely insane?!
-->'''Bush''': Like a fox!
* ItAmusedMe: A lot of the messed up things he does to other people are for his own amusement.
** He once started a war between Pakistan and India just to escape boredom.
** In one instance, President Bush convinces Jeff and BEN to paint the inside of his house, but states that the paint in question is permanent and if they get even a single drop on anything but the walls, he will chop their butts off and mount them over the fireplace. They accidentally get it on his prized military pistol, and President Bush simply licks the paint off and reveals that the paint is actually saliva-soluable. When he tells them that he told them as such just to mess with them, Jeff and BEN are not happy and immediately leave in disgust.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Bush makes it his mission to make sure the world revolves around him and him only.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's a colossal douchebag who is occasionally very unsympathetic.
* JerkassHasAPoint: A recurring gag is that Bush is constantly paranoid around the subject of Russians because he believes they are all evil. If "Motherland" is any indication, he's wasn't entirely wrong after all.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: All that being said, he does genuinely love his children, grandchildren, Rick, and the Proxies, and regularly shows it.
* KarmaHoudini: Bush has gotten away with assault, murder, robbery, counterfeiting, kidnapping, arson, rape, fraud, slavery, drug and weapon dealing, kidnapping, espionage, human rights violations, spousal abuse, treason, war crimes— in short, pretty much every felony on the book. He's a jerk at work and to his family and friends. His mind is constantly occupied with lewd thoughts and freely uses foul language. He invades other countries and steals their resources (especially oil) and pollutes the environment without a care in the world. The guy should be either dead or, as Ms. P (rather hypocritically) once said, in jail. Yet, he walks free, he proclaims himself as "everyman," and he still has everything he holds dear: he's still president of the United States, still has a trillion dollar bank account, and he has a family and good friends. There are quite a few people who are actually aware of his crimes against humanity. It's just Bush sends his [[HeKnowsTooMuch hitmen to deal with them before they can testify in court.]]
** KarmaHoudiniWarranty: While he does get away with a lot of horrible deeds, episodes such as "The Closet" (where he loses the money he obtained using the refrigerator magnet in Smile's stomach when the doctor takes it as payment for the medical bill) and "Proxy Caper" (where he is forced to give away free guns as punishment for stealing his own ammo and guns to get out of paying for delivery) end with him getting a suitable comeuppance.
* KillerRabbit: Who would've expected a duck to kick so much ass?
* KillItWithIce: Outside of sniping and poison, his preferred method of disposing of people is locking them in his freezer.
* KnightTemplar: His occasional treatment of the American People leans towards believing that he's in the right by going to extremes. Early on he was merely defending his business from his schemes, now he seems to take offense even when American citizens are making legitimate profits or merely aren't miserable.
* LackOfEmpathy: Bush casually brushes off any pain or anguish he causes as people being too "preachy" or "childish".
* LastNameBasis: Pretty much everyone (except Bush's wife and sometimes Rick) calls him Bush. Even his drivers license just says "Pres. Bush".
* LaughablyEvil: Every single misdeed he's done whether it be murder, sex slavery, or vandalism, is PlayedForLaughs.
* LawfulNeutral: Is aligned with this In-Universe.
* LazyBum: Most of his daily activities consists of eating chips, chilling in his pool, and watching TV.
* LethallyStupid: More than a few of his employees have been killed during his stupid antics. Empathized in "To Proxy Mountain", where it's almost guaranteed everything will go horribly wrong because of his idiocy.
* LoveHungry: He has the tendency to react ''badly'' when he thinks his friendship with the Proxies is under jeopardy.
* TheMadHatter: Take a look at his quote for the InsultBackfire section.
* MadeOfIron: He has cartoonish durability and has survived being run over by a truck and rammed by a bull.
* {{Manchild}}: He has the personality and reasoning of a four-year-old. Borders on PsychopathicManChild at times.
* TheMillstone: Becomes this in "To Proxy Mountain". Whenever the Proxies have a plan, Bush is sure to screw it up, or do something stupid to make their situation worse.
* MisterBig: He's the president of the United States and thus one of the biggest figures in the world, just not in stature.
* MoneyFetish: The staple of his character.
* MoralityPet: About the only people he's nice to is his daughter and her grandchildren.
* NeverMyFault: Whenever his schemes go wrong, he usually frames someone else; for example, he blames Jeff for "killing" the human resource expert with their poisonous hamburger even though he himself made the idea in the first place. When Jeff reminds him that it was his idea, Bush retorts, "Well, you could've talked me out of it!" That, however, is another example of this trope, as he had explicitly threatened to turn Jeff in if he didn't assist him in the scheme.
* NonIndicativeName: He is actually a duck, not a pigeon, apparently.
* NoodleIncident: This exchange:
-->'''Rick Bernstein''': I've come up with two locations that will fit our vacation parameters.
-->'''Karen''': Denmark.
-->'''President Bush''': I can't step foot in Denmark.
-->'''Ducky''': Why not?
-->'''President Bush''': Well, that's private, Ducky. Between me and the Danes.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Possibly. Certain episodes imply Bush is not really stupid, but a sociopath who does stupid and often assholish things on ''purpose'' just because he knows his low intelligence (or facade of it) and high political status will keep him from punishment.
--> Is it almost time to ruin the United States?! Rick, don't start without me!
* OldSoldier: He solo'd an entire platoon of soldiers in Vietnam. It can a little hard to believe that he's a little over ''100'' years old.
* OneManArmy:
** He is able to hold off an entire SWAT team during the MexicanStandoff in "Good Ol' Days".
** In "Motherland", Bush defeats Ms. P, Jeff, BEN, Eyeless Jack, and Smile by himself [[spoiler: while brainwashed by Russians]]. Not even Slenderman's most elite Proxies can do much against him. Granted, the team was trying to distract him, not actually harm him, but it still shows just how strong and downright ''powerful'' Bush is when he fights seriously.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The main reason he allows the Proxies to murder humans.
* OurPresidentsAreDifferent: A good mix of Corrupt, Jerkass, Buffoon, Lunatic, and Evil. His speech at the United Nations should give you a good indication of what type of president he is.
-->'''Bush''': Hello. I'm here today at the.. [''looks at the U.N emblem''].....un. So, an Indian, a Frenchman, and the Pope are all on a plane. The pilot says, "Hey, are any of you not circumcised?" So the Pope lifts up his robe and says, "Shut up, stupid! You don't even speak English!" The Israeli asks the Japanese guy to open his eyes, but the Japanese man says, "I'm not squinting you crazy Jew, you're the one who sold me these cheap glasses!" What's the difference between a Belgian and a lump of dog shit? The Belgian drinks wine, but the dog shit smells good.
* PapaWolf: Utterly annihilated a gang of French terrorists when they kidnapped Ducky and her grandchildren.
* ParentalSubstitute: In some episodes, he acts as a grandfather for the Proxies.
* ParentsAsPeople: To his demeaning daughter.
* PaedoHunt: Quite possibly, he's the only lead protagonist-type character in the series implied to have strong sexual feelings toward children.
* PhlebotinumKilledTheDinosaurs: Apparently, Bush was the one who dropped the nuke on Hiroshima.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: As shown in "Proxyville" when he gives the Rake a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown. He even lifts the Rake over his head and tosses him across a hallway with little visible effort.
* PluckyComicRelief: His moronic antics can sometimes be the only source of levity in the more serious episodes.
* PoisonousFriend: In "To Proxy Mountain", Bush is willing to sacrifice the Proxies because he "lived a full life." This was actually lampshaded by the Rake, who says sarcastically "Great friend you got there."
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He hates Jews, Mexicans, Asians.... Pretty much anyone who isn't American. He also charges black people more to attend his rallies. He's also an elitist, as he tells a homeless man and his family right in their faces that their lives don't matter if there is no money in their bank accounts.
* PresidentEvil: He can be fairly tyrannical, selfish and cruel. He even let's Slenderman and the Proxies commit murder in the Human World as long as they pay him a quick buck every week.
* PsychoPrototype: It's hinted in one episode that he was the result of a botched cloning attempt that resulted in a duck/human hybrid. Reinforced when Jeff tells its creator, Mayor Bigmouth, after learning this that they need to have a little talk.
* RetiredBadass: He served in ''both'' World Wars.
* RichBastard: Oh, yeah. Ignoring the fact he's essentially turned the United States into a dictatorship, he's mocking of the unfortunate or middle-class.
* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Bush is basically the grandfather of this trope.
* ScatterbrainedSenior: If you thought Jeff was stupid, you ain't seen nothing yet.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Whenever he freaks out.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: Being polite is not a very big priority for him.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: His solution to every problem.
* SeniorSleepCycle: He tends to falls asleep in traffic.
* SerialKiller: It's strongly suggested that he is one. He flatly admits to poisoning other electoral opponents to eliminate the competition; it's strongly suggested that his gardener "got sick" and "fell" off a cliff, that his former vice president "met the shallow end of a shovel at the deep end of a grave" and died recently, and that his 13th accountant choked to death on her own hand, with the strong implication that Bush killed all three.
* ShellShockedVeteran: Many episodes imply that Bush was traumatized and suffered from major PTSD after the many wars he battled in. For instance, when Rick wakes him up from sleep, Bush screams and yells "EVERYONE HEAD TO THE BUNKERS! WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!!"
* SirSwearsALot: Whenever he's in a sticky situation. He especially loves the words "cocksucking" and "fuck". The motto for his campaign was even "Because fuck everyone else!"
* TheSixthRanger: He often tags along with the Proxies on their escapades.
* SmallNameBigEgo: He's shown signs of this more than a few times, like when he forced a group of orphans to build a statue of himself. Primarily it's just him thinking he's gorgeous or him thinking others think highly of him.
* StaircaseTumble: In "Proxyland", Jeff shoves him down a flight of stairs and locks him in the basement.
* TheStoner: Such a stoner that he's tried to stage a "Smoke-In" at city hall for shits and giggles. After BEN gets Bush all the drugs he asks for in order to stage one, he and his entire administration get so high off their own stash they completely forget about it.
* SuperStrength: He's been shown to be able to lift the White House and punch ''tanks'' into bits and pieces. In one episode, he ''pushes'' a mountain that was blocking his view out of the way. On another occasion, he managed to simultaneously overpower Jeff, Ms. P, BEN and Eyeless Jack.
* TechnologicallyBlindElders: He needed to be shown how to open a laptop and once destroyed a microwave because he couldn't get it to work
* TinyGuyHugeGirl: The Tiny Guy to his wife's Huge Girl.
* TooDumbToLive:
** [[SarcasmMode Surely selling nuclear arms to North Korea all for a few thousand bucks was the best he's had in mind, right?]] The fact that he told Rick to send more nukes to double his profit? [[EpicFail Bonus points!]]
** In "To Proxy Mountain", Bush nearly gets himself and the Proxies killed numerous times because of his stupidity.
* TooIncompetentToOperateABlanket: He's shown being needing to be talked through the simplest task, like how to open a book that teaches him ''how to count''.
* TookALevelInDumbass: He's noticeably less pragmatic and more stupid in "To Proxy Mountain".
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Bush has a notable love for eggnog around the holidays.
* TriggerHappy: His first action to any problem is to grab a rocket launcher.
* TheUnapologetic: It takes a lot of effort to make Bush feel bad for his action.
* UngratefulBastard:
** The Proxies save his life several times in "To Proxy Mountain" and he doesn't even bother thanking them.
** On on occasion, a Russia diplomat donated his kidney to ''save his life'' and yet he still thinks all Russians are evil. Obviously, this is Played for Laughs and it's meant to show that Bush is stupid and delusional rather than outright evil.
* UpperClassTwit: UpToEleven.
* VagueAge: Can never decide if he's 95 or over 100 years old.
* VillainProtagonist: Easily up in the top three with the most morally bankrupt protagonists in the show, which is saying a ''lot''.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Rick Bernstein.
* VocalDissonance: According to Comickit, if there was a live-action ''Pastamonsters'' movie, they would have Leslie Nielsen voice Bush (although they sadly commented on how that's not possible anymore).
* WackyParentSeriousChild: Ducky is hardly serious, but she sure looks like it compared to him.
* WhyAreYouNotMySon: Considers the Proxies to be his grandchildren.
* WhyCouldntYouBeDifferent: He wanted Ducky to be a boy.
* WouldHitAGirl: He was perfectly willing to "ice" Lara alongside Laughing Jack, at least until Ducky walked in and stopped him beforehand.
* WouldHurtAChild:
** He once gave BEN a black eye simply for calling him "Feathers".
** He's also perfectly fine with kidnapping schoolgirls and selling them to overseas sex slavery.
** He ''accelerates'' his car when he see's it's about to hit a baby stroller. [[SlasherSmile The look on Bush's face says it all.]]
* XMustNotWin: Even when the Russians are making legitimate profits, Bush will go out of his way to sabotage it.
* YourCheatingHeart: Bush has cheated on his wife many times.

[[folder:Rick Bernstein]]
!!Rick Bernstein
The Vice President of the United States and President Bush's YesMan.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Is the VP of the United States and will kick your ass if provoked.
* BerserkButton: He almost pounds Jeff's face in for making jokes about his mom.

* CanonForeigner
* TheCape: He's a total boy scout when it comes to morality and manners.
* CarpetOfVirility: Rick, underneath his suit, is rather hairy.
* CatchPhrase: Typically introduces himself by saying "Rick Bernstein, I work for the government."
* ChildhoodFriends: With Bush, according to himself.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: He's this to Bush. Although, sometimes he can be just as crazy as him.
* ClusterFBomb: His reaction to running out of bullets.
---> '''Rick''': [[PrecisionFStrike Motherfucking titty-sucking two-balled bitch!]]
* TheComicallySerious: He's a protagonist in ''Pastamonsters''. Of course, he gets made fun of a lot.
* {{Cuckold}}: Willingly lets the underaged BEN sleep with his (fourth) wife in exchange for Black Stuff. BEN is understandably [[EvenEvilHasStandards shocked.]] He also lets Bush finger his wife.
* HonoraryUncle: Ducky calls him "Uncle Rick".
* IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: [[spoiler: In "To Proxy Mountain", when BEN is about to fire the Ultimate Weapon (the spiked turtle from Mario) at Enderman's ship, Rick tries to convince BEN to be a bigger man than Enderman and spare his life, but BEN just rolls his eyes and launches the turtle anyway. He then tells Rick that being a hero isn't worth sparing the lives of horrible people and mocks him, saying "not everyone monitors a hall like you".]]
* TheLancer: To President Bush.
* TheMenInBlack: Sometimes wears this attire.
* NiceGuy: He is easily one of the most polite characters on the comic, trying to encourage the Proxies to become heroes. Unlike Bush, he's more sensible and has a good moral compass.
* NoRespectGuy: Neither Bush nor the Proxies respect him.
* OneManArmy: In "Good Ol' Days", he single-handedly holds off half of the police force and ''forces them to retreat'' during the MexicanStandoff. That includes a horde of dirty cops and dirty military personnel with access to a tank. That's straight up GTA protagonist stuff right there.
* PapaWolf: Rick is only working with Bush because he wants to put his kids through college.
* TheParagon: He tries ''so hard'' to be this to the Proxies.
* ThePollyanna: He is optimistic and positive about everything.

[[folder:Ducky]]
!!Ducky
President Bush's beloved teenage daughter, who is also a duck. Her brain is the largest in Washington, DC (certainly bigger than her father's) and she is gifted in math, but she is still young and immature. She is a mother of 5. Her father hopes to pass his presidency onto her when she gets older.
----
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: She has her moments.
* BuxomIsBetter: She has a ''huge'' chest.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm telling my dad!"
* CuteAndPsycho: Don't piss her off or you'll regret it the rest of your life.
* DaddysGirl: She and Bush are obviously very close, and she's his MoralityPet. Jeff calls her "Daddy's Whore" at one point.
* TheDitz: Just like her dad she's not very bright or intelligent.
* GenkiGirl: Constantly bouncing around and shouting when confronting Bush about something she wants.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: Her room, even as a girl pushing 20, if filled with stuffed animals.
* HiddenDepths: Comickit claims that she has the biggest brain in Washington, DC and she's pretty good at math.
* InformedAbility: According to Comickit, she's the smartest citizen in Washington, but there has never been a comic focusing on her intelligence. There have, however, been instances where it implies she only acts like a regular teenager to fit in.
* ItsAllAboutMe: She claims that on her birthday everyone in the world has to pay attention to her.
* JerkassBall: When she makes fun of Jeff for being ugly.
* MoralityPet: Bush instantly drops his tyrannical attitude when she shows up.
* RichBitch: Sorta.
* SpoiledBrat: She has shades of this.
* TookALevelInJerkass: She's progressively becoming more ruder as the comic grows. This likely has something to do with her father's greediness.
* ValleyGirl: She's got the terminology down pat.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:President Bush's Wife]]
!!President Bush's Wife
The beloved (and, usually loving) spouse of President Bush and First Lady of the United States. A woman of considerable size and powerful moods, good and bad. When enraged, she becomes an elemental force of raw destruction (and insults).
----
* ActionMom: When enraged, she can turn into one badass OneWomanArmy.
* AffectionateNickname: Bush gives all sorts of pet names like "Muffin".
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: She is (presumably) faster and stronger than Bush, Jeff, and BEN.
* BadassNormal: Is just an average duck, but is able to solo an entire terrorist organization.
* BerserkButton: Make fun of her size or threaten her family (or friends of her family) and you're in for a bad time.
* BirdsOfAFeather: She is just as boisterous and thick-headed as her husband.
* BloodKnight: It's pretty clear she loves a good fight and is all too eager to throw herself into the fray.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: While she can be unbelievably powerful and so destructive that she makes a hurricane look like a bad drizzle, in better circumstances she's very nice and dearly loves her husband (and she's not afraid to show it).
* BuxomIsBetter: Much like her daughter.
* DeadpanSnarker: Throws around sarcasm like there's no tomorrow.
* DotingParent: Loves Duck just as much as Bush.
* FatBitch: She's fat and can be very demanding. [[BerserkButton Just don't mention her weight in front of her, though]].
* GoodIsNotNice: A loving mother and wife above all else, but is not afraid (even a little ''eager'') to use lethal methods of her enemies.
* GroinAttack: Does this to a terrorist strong enough that it sends his ''head flying off his body''.
* HairTriggerTemper: If you know what's good for you, do not make her angry. Hell, even her own husband, who has fought in almost every war in American history, is afraid of just the thought of angering her, and her husband is ''President Bush'', who is usually willing to stand up to anyone ([[spoiler: keep in mind that Bush defeated Jeff, BEN, Eyeless Jack, and Ms. P simultaneously in one episode]])
* HappilyMarried: Considering how long they've been together, you would think her and Bush's love would have died years ago. Yet it's still as strong as ever today. Look at how many kids and grandkids they have.
* ImmuneToBullets: And the terrorists find this out the hard way.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Kills several terrorists with a car door, a walking stick, and a lawnmower.
* LadyOfWar: Strong enough to single-handedly bring down an entire terrorist organization.

* MamaBear: To not just Bush, but friends of Bush as well.
* NeverMessWithGranny: Is almost or slightly older than Bush, but can kick just as much ass.
* NoNameGiven: Her name is never revealed, though it's implied it stars with an "A".
* OneWomanArmy: Defeated a whole terrorist army which Jeff, BEN, and even Bush were not able to defeat!
* SirSwearsALot: Even more than her husband does.
* StoutStrength: She's even more of a powerhouse than her husband, who is already a match for the Proxies. When she gets angry, entire buildings collapse in her wake. She doesn't even need a weapon to take out a terrorist organization army.
* UnskilledButStrong: She lacks the military training her husband does but makes up for it with brute strength.
* WomanAreWiser: She is wiser than her husband. Not that she isn't exactly "wise".
