Oh, please help keep America great!

On Monday, Politico Magazine pondered the unthinkable (for liberals). What if President Donald Trump actually wins re-election next year? In order to present this dystopian future, Politico's senior White House reporter Darren Samuelsohn took us on a trip to the (possibly) near future in a time machine.
Although it was Samuelsohn's obvious attempt to frighten readers with the imagined Trumpian dystopia of his second term, the result was so absurd that he has provided unintentional comedy gold.
So step into the Politico Time Machine and set the dial to January 2021 and let the flux capacitor power our trip to the apocalyptic Trump future which you can read about in "What If Trump Wins?"
The time is January 2021. The election has left the nation a psychological mess and a sulfurous cloud of election meddling by foreign hackers hangs over the still-contested results. Trump’s Ukraine scandal ultimately spared him but it wounded Joe Biden enough to give Elizabeth Warren the nomination. Once again, though, the result came down to the Electoral College, but even closer than in 2016. Warren, like Hillary Clinton four years earlier, took the popular vote by a resounding margin. But this mixed verdict has done nothing but further entrench the battle lines of a civil war that has become more than just a metaphor.
Wow! A civil war already? Since this is science fiction can we expect to see the evil Trump Skynet hunting down the brave Resistance?

Drama queens with keyboards. Life in a comic book. Meanwhile the rest of us have a country to sustain.
Politico — sounds like a Mexican newspaper and you know how corrupt the Mexicans can be.
It’s uncanny. Predictit.org also has Trump favored to lose PA, MI, WI.
Why is it that it is always the democrat party threatening a civil war if a Republican is elected?
Oh, please help keep America great!
It’s amazing to me that about half the country sees Trump as being almost as great as George Washington and the other half of the country sees Trump as being more awful than Hitler.
It really says something about how subjective our approach to reality really is.
Of course, the Left has explicitly rejected Truth and Facts in favor of “the Narrative”, so their subjective view of things isn’t all that surprising. But still, it’s disturbing.
It didn’t start with Trump, they even called W, “Chimpy McBushitler.”
“Everyone I don’t like is Hitler”
Wow! The author sure has access to some pretty good meds!!!
So first Jewish female President and a democrat go boot ?
I’m meltttttiiiiiiinnnnnggggggg! LOL! Unhingedness is awesome.
That Politico piece....”unhinged” is the most polite term I can use.
Sort of brings a smirky kinda smile to my face to see them so freaked out. Winning!
Exactly. When you give up on objective reality, when you openly accept lying as a wonderful tool to achieve your ends, you end up believing your own lies.
The bit in that piece about Trump using the military is IMHO projection on the writer's part, and the bit about removing RFK's name is something the Left is doing with Confederate monuments and our Fouding Fathers (where they think they can get away with it).
There is always Canada.
Blackface justine won but is now in the minority. Appropriate eh?
I think I know the guy who wrote that Newsbusters article but I always had trouble pronouncing his name.
