Romney Sends out First Tweets on Personal Account:


Tweet 1: While our current deficit is already too high, due to a dramatic increase in interest expenses over the next will cause our deficit to once again surpass $ 1 trillion dollars by 2021. Allowing our deficit to get that high again is unacceptable and that is why we must pass the #Budget Reform Amendment

Tweet 2: Our deficit will be even higher in a 2021 , if our nation has to faces crises like war. It is better if that problem never arises, so that is why we must pass the #Budget Reform Amendment

I am liking this timeline.  However, there is no way that Democrats will support this (or even Republicans tbh).  The system relies too much on pork barrel spending.  Plus pretty much every respectable economist would slam this plan as being unsuitable for a financial crisis when you automatically need to spend more money to make up for the adverse shock in demand (which both W and Obama did incidentally)

François Fillon  elected French President, defeating the Far Right Candidate Marine Le-Pen in a landslide


First Round Results:

François Fillon 23.5%
Marine Le-Pen 20.7%
Emmanual Macron 20.4%
Jean-Luc Mélenchon 19.3%
Benoît Hamon 6.1%
Nicolas Dupont-Aignan 5.2%
Others 4.8%


Second Round Results:

François Fillon 64.9%
Marine Le-Pen 35.1%

Okay time out…this part is somewhat off the rails.  Speaking as someone who is half French how would this TL change history to allow Fillon to win?  I get Brexit not happening because Romney was not as public as Obama about it (and yay) but Fillon's defeat was due to a massive nepotism scandal that I don't see Romney really changing.  Please explain how Fillon would win because this part is a bit confusing and I don't see how this TL would have caused this (or at least caused this without a complete collapse in PS numbers)

Just a question, as it has been driving me mad but had you decided who the running mates/VPs would be in this timeline?

Who was Booker's Running Mate?  Who was Haley's Running Mate?  Who was George P Bush's RM?  How about Ojeda, Cortez-Masto, Kennedy?

Who was Stefanik's Vice President?  How about Hegar?
