oh I found a real thing, in 1999 Joe Arpaio faked an assassination attempt during a campaign. The guy he arrested for it spent 4 years in jail before being found not guilty. http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/a-phony-murder-plot-against-joe-arpaio-winds-up-costing-taxpayers-11-million-6629798

For content, there was also the time that there were 5 different spinoffs of the daily show with only one of them being passably entertaining.

The guy who played Bush on that show also played Bush in a serious made-for-TV movie about 9/11 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_9/11:_Time_of_Crisis

He was absolutely right in the original argument he made, Truman is a war criminal, but he was too much of a pussy to stick to where his logic lead him.

When a national rail strike threatened in May 1946, Truman seized the railroads in an attempt to contain the issue, but two key railway unions struck anyway. The entire national railroad system was shut down, immobilizing 24,000 freight trains and 175,000 passenger trains a day. For two days public anger mounted, and Truman himself drafted an irate message to Congress that called on veterans to form a lynch mob and destroy the union leaders: "Every single one of the strikers and their demagogue leaders have been living in luxury.... Now I want you who are my comrades in arms ... to come with me and eliminate the Lewises, the Whitneys, the Johnstons, the Communist Bridges [all important union officials] and the Russian Senators and Representatives ... Let's put transportation and production back to work, hang a few traitors and make our own country safe for democracy." His staff was stunned; but top aide Clark Clifford revised the original draft and Truman delivered a toned down version of the speech to Congress. Truman called for a new law, where any railroad strikers would be drafted into the Army. As he concluded his congressional address, he received a message that the strike had been settled on presidential terms; nevertheless, a few hours later, the House voted to draft the strikers. Taft killed the bill in the Senate.

WWE pro wreslter Kane, a man horribly disfigured due to burning his fanily and forced to wear a mask (only for it to be retconned into being pscyhologically scarred because he stopped wearing the mask and his face was fine), is running for mayor of Knoxville, TN.
