Brian Schatz (Valve Dystopia)

Brian Emanuel Schatz (October 20, 1972- January 17, 2058) was an American politician who served as the senior United States Senator from Hawaii from 2012 to 2029 and as the 49th President Of The United States from 2037 to 2045. An experienced politician, Schatz is regarded as one of the most influental Democrats of the 21st century (mainly following Gabe Logan Newell (Valve dystopia)). He would be a huge follower of the Newell principles and would follow in the diplomatic heavy presidential ways, just like his predecessor Gabe Newell.

Early Life
Schatz was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan with an identical brother and moved to Hawaii when he was 2. Spending most of his youth there, Schatz remained loyal to the state and eventually became a Hawaiian House Representative in 1998. Holding several positions, he would also serve as the lieutenant governor of Hawaii before becoming the senior U.S senator from Hawaii and remaining in that position until 2029.

Becoming POTUS 49
Schatz originally wanted to run for the 2028 elections and was a candidate. However, as the popularity of Gabe Newell grew, Schatz decided that it would be better to run in a later election to gather a following. Following the momentum Newell's well-received presidency gave to the Democratic Party,Schatz decided to officially run for the 2036 elections. Being a well liked member of the party and receiving endorsements from both Newell and his Vice President Andrew Yang, Schatz would go on to win the Democratic nomination. He won the 2036 election with 49.2% of the popular vote. He would go on to serve two terms and his presidency would end on January 20th, 2045 with the inauguration of his successor, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Life after Presidency and the sudden passing
After presidency, Schatz would remain an active member of the Democrat Party, but would not run for the House or Senate again. He established the Brian Schatz Presidential Library and Archive in Honolulu,Hawaii in 2050. He'd regularly appear on television shows and gave ideas about the political climate surrounding the United States. The world was shook with the news of the former president's death on the morning of January 17, 2058. A commercial plane carrying the president crashed just before landing on New York's LaGuardia Airport, killing 45 alongside the former president. A nationwide mourning was declared for two days and a state funeral for Schatz was organized on January 21. His funeral was attended by two million Americans, including the sitting president Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the former vice president Andrew Yang. He was buried in Honolulu.
