An alternative history of the year since Election Day 2016 (Hillary wins - Democrat fantasy)
The Washington Post ^ | November 8, 2017 | Rachel Sklar

Posted on 11/09/2017 7:14:21 PM PST by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

The year since the 2016 election has been dizzying. But would it have been just as dizzying if Hillary Clinton had won? A year into the scariest experiment the American Experiment has ever experimented with, here’s a glimpse at the alternate timeline that we just barely missed out on.

Nov. 8, 2016: Madam President! The first female president of the United States, Hillary Clinton, wins the popular vote by 3 million votes and ekes out a narrow electoral college victory by winning Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, just like the polls all said! On Etsy, a million “Madam President” onesies go up for sale.

After holing up in Trump Tower refusing to talk to anyone except Ivanka, Donald Trump finally concedes at 2:43 a.m. Later, he tweets, “Conceded dumb election to Crooked Hillary. Rigged! #MAGA #2020″

Nov. 9, 2016: Clinton pledges to work with the Obama administration for a smooth transition. People are not openly weeping in their workplaces. Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile graciously accepts compliments about how well the campaign was handled and praises the Clinton campaign as “a great partner” in rebuilding the DNC.

Nov. 10, 2016: In her first news conference as president-elect, Clinton sparks outrage by suggesting that her husband, former president Bill Clinton, might be of help as a special envoy to North Korea, citing his previous diplomatic success there. “We will not tolerate a whiff of nepotism in the White House!” declares Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). In a biting editorial, the Wall Street Journal imagines Chelsea Clinton as a “special adviser to the president, swanning in and out of the West Wing with no qualifications other than being the president’s daughter.” Fox News cites it on all its programs.

Combined PING! and DANG! for some almost-masturbatory material for liberal Democrats.

More of the same. Same old, same old. Well, actually it would have been much worse.

Yeah right. If my aunt had a set, she’d be my uncle. Although nowadays she might be.

She would have had orgasmic love-ins from the fake news media.

Who would be swooning day and night over America’s first female President.

She would be lionized by every one but the Russians and Chinese.

You get the picture...

The stock market drops 23% and continues to plummet.

All Fortune 500 companies are nationalized, because, you know, .....”they didn’t build that”...

Every Deplorable, identified through their voting history (that’s legal now), has to host an illegal alien and their 23 chain migrated ‘relatives’, whom all seem to be 19 year old bearded guys with roaming hands.

Well, I think there would have been a lot more “rewarding friends and punishing enemies” than I’ve seen out of the current lot.

From the WaPo wet dream:

Sept. 4: Clinton kneels next to Colin Kaepernick during the national anthem at the first National Football League games of the 2017 season, after persuading Daniel Snyder to siggn him as the starting quarterback for the newly renamed Washington Resisters. When asked about his change of heart, Snyder cites the election, saying, “I want to win now, and this is the now we’re in, so.”

Alternate reality was entertaining in the new “Twin Peaks.” But even David Lynch couldn’t come up with something as horrifying as this banshee being President of the United States.

If wishes were dollars, all the RATS would be millionaires.

Figues the WaPo would publish something like this. This article doesn’t even deserve chat status.

I’m happy to have been part of the MAGA effort to deprive the Washington Compost of that little fantasy circle jerk they had planned.

But hey... if they can pop a chubby to an image of Hillary as president... well... they really do need some mental help.

Thanks bitt. Where's the part about the 300 million barf bags and bills to crush the 1st and 2nd amendments?

That’s kind of insulting, in a back-handed complement sort of way to Hillary, isn’t it? And it’s from the WaPo? They’re describing Trump as peevishly doing what she did. I think it’s funny but wouldn’t expect to see it published in a Hillary friendly paper.
