Limberbutt McCubbins, cat running for President, praises fellow hopeful Deez Nuts but won’t agree to be running mate

A Kentucky feline who announced his presidential dreams in July praised an Iowa teen’s candidacy — but the cat stopped short of endorsing Deez Nuts.

Limberbutt McCubbins, a Kentucky feline gunning for the Democratic nomination, said Thursday that he was thrilled that he inspired 15-year-old Brady Olson to run under the name Deez Nuts.

Nuts, an independent who is polling at 9% in North Carolina, said he decided to run for president after he read about McCubbins’ bid. The Wallingford, Iowa, teen told the Daily Beast the cat is his top pick for vice president.

McCubbins — whose campaign was launched by his owner, 18-year-old Emilee McCubbins, and her friend 17-year-old Isaac Weiss, both seniors at DuPont Manual High School in Louisville — commended Nuts’ campaign on Facebook on Thursday.
