Trashman

Theodor Robert "Trashman" Mann is a politician from Doggerland currently serving as a Member of Parliament representing the Labor Worker's Party in the National Assembly and the party's Deputy Leader, initially serving as the Press Secretary. He was appointed as Deputy Leader by Mel on February 9, 2021, and earlier as Press Secretary by Robert La Follette on January 26, 2021. He is best known for his fantastic advertisement skills and ability to create ads in short periods of time, shown during his tenure as Press Secretary.

Early life and education
Theodor Mann was born in Vorlaender to a German fisherman and Dutch cook, living there until he was 8, when his parents divorced. Afterwards, he and his mother moved to Mistlân. This was where he was raised for the rest of his childhood. Trashman was seen as a gifted student, doing especially well in the subjects of History and English. However, despite meeting all of the requirements, he could not attend the top university of the nation, because his family was unable to pay the tuition. Some say this is what partially shaped his political views. He decided to instead attend community college and work as a freelancer afterwards.

Early career
He eventually became interested in politics, initially being a right-wing populist, then becoming a socialist, until finally becoming a progressive social-democrat. He then proceeded to run in the 2018 Mistlân city council election for his district. Despite polls showing a strong lead, and an endorsement from the mayor, he narrowly lost to social liberal Klaartje Boermans. After the election, he decided to stay out of politics, and worked as a columnist for The Mistlân Times, until the January 2021 legislative elections. He later joined the Labor Worker's Party, quickly rising up in the ranks before being appointed as Press Secretary. After Robert La Follette resigned on February 9th, 2021, he was appointed as Deputy Leader by Mel, who became the new leader. He subsequently ran in the leadership election, but lost to Mel.
