2020 - Now it's the establishments turn!
A bitter Republican primary between Ducey and Ryan ended with them both on the ticket, hoping to satisfy the increasing "Know Nothing" faction of the party with Ducey, but it ended up being a bridge too far to compete against the moderately unpopular President.

No Trump - On Super Tuesday

Senator Cruz won his obvious and large victory in Iowa, with former frontrunners Carson and Paul in miserable 3rd and 4th places in the state. The surprise second place, Marco Rubio, gave a glorified victory speech and pulled ahead in New Hampshire for the first time. But just as that came, Governor Chris Christie shot him dead in the debates - allowing underdog Governor John Kasich to sneak a win in New Hampshire (Cruz taking a surprise second and Bush, by then a weak contender, edging Rubio for third). Christie would leave the race and make no endorsement - and his effect on the race would be temporary. A solid debate performance and accusations that Cruz won Iowa because of sabotaging Ben Carson caused Marco Rubio to re-surge and win in South Carolina! This led to a pretty interesting three-way fight in Super Tuesday - Kasich winning the Northeast, Cruz performing very strong in the South, and Rubio winning largely the rest. While many view Rubio as strong - his delegate count has him 200 down to Cruz.

Would it really be so simple as allocating the win to whomever got second IRL?

I just removed all of Trump's votes, actually.

2016 Presidential Election - President Romney defeats Bernie Sanders' political revolution
President Romney was expected to face Hillary Clinton, a candidate who he trailed consistently in public opinion polls, but a rough Democratic match-up allowed Romney to pull ahead of Clinton significantly while only leading Senator Bernie Sanders by a relatively mild margin. Nevertheless, Sanders' political revolution did not come to fruition against President Romney.

2020 Presidential election - The Return of Obama
Ryan faced an impossibly tough primary challenge from anti-immigrant Senator Ted Cruz, who harped on Ryan's unwillingness to back away from President Romney's immigration reform package. Ryan hedged far to the right on the subject, while leaving intraparty moderates behind. Obama is being reflected on as a successful President, and decides to run again in 2020, clearing the field. Obama begins to open up the electoral map.

2016 - 50 Cent as Trump
8 years of President John McCain left many Americans unsatisfied with the direction of the country. Democrats, tired of losing, faced a rambunctious primary of many many candidates. The race consolidated quickly after Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, a rapper and a former gangster, announced his candidacy for President. His opening remarks were controversial - "these cracker motherers don't give a damn about you or me, that's why we need to take America back!". His following among minorities grew rapidly as his rallies began getting very popular. He faced controversy over past conservative views, like his positive opinion of Former Republican one term President George W. Bush, his prior support for cutting taxes for the rich, and his many controversies over previous gang behavior. But no matter what his large smattering of opponents threw at him, 50 Cent came away on top.

Rapper Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson (D-NY)/Governor Terry McCauliffe (D-VA) - 49.3%, 294 EV's
Former Treasury Secretary W. Mitt Romney (R-MA)/Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) - 47.3%, 244 EV's

[Maxwell]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but 50 cent is a Republican.

Trump used to be a democrat. Like Trump, 50 Cent's politics aren't really definable - he's been for Republicans and he's been for Democrats (he supported Hillary Clinton in 2008, for example).

After this, the primary was a three way between Governor Kate Brown, the leftest of left-wing choice, Senator Cory Booker, the candidate of hope and change (and minority backing), and Senator Russ Feingold, the establishment () choice who formerly represented the progressive wing of the party. Feingold ended up getting a small plurality of delegates, and super-delegates swung the nomination his way, causing massive protests at the DNC. This allowed the comeback of Marco Rubio to lead by 10 points out the gate, and ended up allowing this:

I like this, but I think that you should switch Feingold and Brown's positions in the primaries. It would make way more sense, IMO, for Feingold to be the candidate of the left, and for an unsubstantial token politician like Brown to be the establishment candidate. Also, Feingold's really the only candidate I could even theoretically see running against Clinton in the primary and enough gaining traction to actually defeat her in Iowa. Lastly, I really don't think that O'Malley would have nearly enough political stock to be chosen as running mate; maybe Feingold chooses someone like Cortez Masto?

In this timeline my idea is that Feingold is supportive of Clinton administration actions that cause the Democrats to divide, while Kate Brown is strongly against Clinton on these issues.
