The 2024 presidential election has gone to the dogs — or at least one dog in particular.

That dog is Snoopy. 

Snoopy Weekly, a now-deleted account on X, formerly Twitter, made a post about the beloved beagle endorsing former President Donald Trump for president, per NBC News.

The endorsement by the account, not affiliated with the “Peanuts” comic, enraged fans.

The account was among several Snoopy fan pages on social media for the amusement of fans of the comic strip. Some of those fans were dismayed by the endorsement.

“Snoopy hates you btw,” one fan of the cartoon wrote.

you may have deleted the tweet but we all saw it and snoopy hates you btw @snoopyweekly pic.twitter.com/Kj7AmCdj5B

The Snoopy Weekly account was deleted as of Monday evening. Before it was removed from X, the account encouraged people to register to vote in the swing states of Arizona and Georgia. 

Even though Snoopy is a cartoon character, his creator, Charles M. Schulz, did not back away from politics, according to historian Blake Scott Ball’s book “Charlie Brown’s America: The Popular Politics of Peanuts.”

“I think for a lot of people, Peanuts was kind of viewed as so universal, so inoffensive, that I think a lot of people imagine it as apolitical,” Ball said. 

“When in fact, Schulz was really good at asking questions that challenged people on both sides about controversial issues, including school prayer, the draft in Vietnam and women’s rights,” he said.

Schulz died in 2000.

In 1972, Snoopy himself ran for office as the “Snoopy For President” bumper sticker was popular.

“Snoopy has always been, in one way or another, sort of in the political discourse,” Ball said.

“He elevated characters like Franklin, the first Black character in a mainstream comic strip, and Peppermint Patty, a gender-fluid child from a broken home, into the national conversation,” Ball wrote. “Yes, Charles Schulz believed that democracy would guide the way.”

I strongly agree Snoopy would never endorse Trump. He would have 0 tolerance for his disrespect of veterans as a World War I flying ace. https://t.co/57QGFnBSdG
