Trump is re-elected in 2020, suspends the Constitution in 2024 (alternately: has Pence elected the way Putin does every 8 years), rules autocratically until his death, and is buried in a literal gold pyramid in the middle of the Reflecting Pool between the Lincoln Memorial and the WW2 Memorial. His body will be kept on display in a glass coffin like Lenin.

No level of cynicism is too great at this point. Our Democracy is truly in peril.
