I thought about this tweet for two days and even though Im not really active on The Office twitter, decided to use this is a writing prompt.

WHAT IF MICHAEL SCOTT WAS A TRUMP SUPPORTER - a thread. https://twitter.com/alankruthahaha/status/1138312215004626945
cold open: michael scott walks in with a MAGA hat and shouts "guess who!". the office quietens and everyone stares at him.

"Mr Gorbachev, tear down that wall!" he says in DJT's accent and pointing a finger.

"Reagan!"

*exasperated sigh* "do you even watch the NEWS, Dwight?"
michael talking head: "why do i like donald? its because we have so much in common. i run a business too. the little people love me. i've even declared bankruptcy... once - but one day when im really successful, I'll do it six times like he did. thats when i know i made it."
Pam: "Packer is a Trump supporter. Obviously. So Michael is now a Trump supporter too. Obviously.

Who am I voting? Im a mom to a newborn and got 6 hours of sleep this week. I don't want my birth control taken away and do this again. Does that answer your question?" *tired smile*
Angela: "I would vote for him, I just think the hats are tacky. If I could, I would build a wall in this very office to keep Kelly Kapoor away from my desk."
Ryan is ecstatic to discover that WUPHF's userbase has quadrupled until he realizes that its an exodus of nazis banned from Twitter. A BuzzFeed reporter messages him on FB to ask whether he knows his social media network is full of dogwhistling and his autoreply says 'WUPHF'
Dwight: "Schrute tradition dictates that the head of the household is chosen in a duel using the bone of a farm animal of your choice. I could take out every Democrat in the debates with the femur of a mule. My ideal president? Samson."
Michael says Beto is only popular because he's a pretty boy and that he's worked with prettier people at Dunder Mifflin and gestures wildly. Camera pans to where he's gesturing and it is Ryan's cubicle and he is just staring.
Andy, wearing a Yang Gang hat: "Andrew Yang promises 1000$ for EVERYONE if he gets elected. sure, he is trailing 8 other Democrats but being an unpopular ivy leaguer with a longshot to becoming boss... it really struck a chord with me, I dont know why" *thinks deeply*
Michael is convinced that the person who put up the 'booty egg egg' flyer in the bathroom has to be Oscar because he's gay but he doesnt outright say it but hints badly at it.
Michael: David Wallace!

David (on speakerphone): Yes, Michael?

Michael: Or can I call you... David Build That Wallace? Because you get things d-

David: *sighs* is that why you called, Michael?

Michael: Yes *grins*
Jim convinces Dwight that Michael is going to be milkshaked by antifa because of his Trump hat and Dwight starts t-posing in front of Michael whenever anyone approaches him.
Creed: "I've been buddies with Vermin Supreme since '86. Great guy. I really cannot tell you more about that stage of my life until the statute of limitations is up. What were we talking about again? Politics? I don't do that."
some of the office staff are discussing how cool it is that Mayor Pete is a polyglot. Toby overhears this and starts learning Esperanto online. He starts casually peppering his sentences with 'Bonan tagon al vi' and 'Mi komprenas'. Oscar suspects he's having a stroke.
Phyllis: "Yes, I'm voting Republican. Bob Vance told me that the tax cuts would be great for Vance Refrigeration. We could even go to Maine for our second honeymoon *giggles*"
Dwight's traditional & masculine lifestyle accidentally goes viral on alt-right Twitter and inspires an offshoot called the 'alt-Dwight'. A popular right wing Twitch streamer decides to see this lifestyle for himself and checks in to Schrute Farms B&B. Mose becomes a meme.
Stanley walks into the office, coat in arm and coffee in hand. He sees Michael in a MAGA hat waving his arms around enthusiastically yelling "ALL ABOARD THE TRUMP TRAIN!!" and Dwight going "CHOO CHOO"; then just walks out.
Kelly has no interest in politics until she decides to run against Angela for the position of head of the party planning committee. She takes a page out of Trump's playbook, employing everything from personal attacks to 'fake news'. Angela tells Oscar shes like his abuelita.
Meredith: "im voting for whoever is going to deal with the opioids crisis. there were seven overdoses in my neighborhood last month. Three of them were me. Give the people their f*ckin' Narcan!"
Kevin: "America is great already. Do you know what would be great? American cheese. Grated American cheese. Make American Cheese Grated again... that would be great."
Michael: "for years, I prayed to see a salesman become president. i was thinking Al Bundy but Donald Trump was my fourth choice. every redblooded American salesman is proud that one of our own is in the White House. What good is a country's soul without a salesman to sell it?"
since this thread is getting traction again, I'm going to shoot my shot and tag @theofficenbc in case y'all need writers for a reboot
me, a fellow south indian, trying to get @mindykaling's attention now that my Office fanfic is being retweeted again
