This is really a fascinating timeline of how things could go very wrong. I've seen some hints of this in the rhetoric of both parties' extremes over the years, so there's a lot of realism in it.

I experimented with a borderline populist dystopia in the mini-timeline I worked on today, but it was averted much more quickly.

Another good dystopia timeline is this:

That's EXACTLY what would have happened if the Greatest Generation turned out to be the not-so-great Generation.

BUMP

This timeline essentially predicted Donald Trump's success.

This is literally Donald Trump's rhetorical orientation: nationalist to the core, socially far-right but secular and incredibly patriotic. Like the Progressives of this timeline, Donald Trump traces his origins to a "blue" region and has managed to garner incredible levels of support from white working class Democrats. The key difference is that, because Donald Trump is working within the GOP, he has achieved much more support from the South, right off the bat. In a sense, this makes him far more dangerous than the Progressives of this TL.

Thanks for bumping this. New kids need to observe the only working model of Trump that's ever been employed by political scientists.

No, it is forever bound to be necroed every two to four years by posters comparing Walton to Trump.
