Lady President is a hilarious new comedy series from Funny or Die that is guaranteed to leave you in stitches. Starring Becky Feldman as the titular character and Lesley Tsina as her long-suffering campaign manager, this show is a biting satire of American politics and gender stereotypes.

The series follows the journey of a young woman named Stephanie Franklin as she runs for the highest office in the land. Stephanie is smart, resilient and driven, but she's also a little bit clueless when it comes to politics. She's never held office before, and her campaign is relying on a motley crew of volunteers and supporters to get her to the top.

But Stephanie is nothing if not determined. With the help of her trusty campaign manager, Julie (Tsina), she sets out to prove that a woman can be just as capable, competent, and commanding as any man.

Of course, Stephanie's path to the presidency is far from easy. She's constantly battling against the sexism and misogyny that still pervade American politics, as well as the idiots who seem determined to undermine her at every turn. But Stephanie is nothing if not resourceful, and she always manages to find a way to make things work.

Along the way, Stephanie and Julie encounter a host of colorful characters, each with their own unique perspective on politics, gender, and life in general. There's the sleazy campaign advisor who's always looking for a way to make a quick buck, the idealistic young intern who's convinced that Stephanie is destined for greatness, and the grizzled political veteran who's seen it all before.

But perhaps the most noteworthy character in the series is Stephanie's opponent, a blustering, bombastic, blowhard who's clearly based on a certain former President. He's everything that Stephanie is not - a privileged white man who's used to getting what he wants, no matter who he has to step on to get it. But despite his many flaws, he's somehow managed to build a devoted following of supporters who are willing to do anything to keep him in power.

As Stephanie navigates these choppy waters, she begins to learn some important lessons about herself, her campaign, and the American political system as a whole. She discovers that politics is a messy, complicated business, and that there are no easy answers to the problems facing the country. But she also discovers that she's more capable and resilient than she ever imagined, and that she truly has what it takes to lead the nation.

All in all, Lady President is a smart, sophisticated, and side-splittingly funny take on the state of American politics today. With its incisive humor, stellar cast, and razor-sharp writing, it's the kind of series that will have you cheering for Stephanie and Julie every step of the way. Whether you're a political junkie or just someone who loves a good laugh, Lady President is the show for you.
