America Gets Brazilised

31st: Herbert C. Hoover (R-CA), March 4, 1929 - December 11, 1932

Re-elected in highly disputed (and possibly rigged) 1932 election. Facing a massive outrage after his Democratic opponent, New York Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt ied under mysterious circumstances following pledging the challenge the results, Hoover was removed from office by a wide coalition of military forces, Democrats and liberal Republicans. Hoover was later found not to be personally responsible.

Acting: John J. Pershing (Military-DC), December 11 - December 21, 1932

As head of a provisional military junta, General Pershing served as a transitional head of government for ten days between Hoover's removal and provisional President taking office.

32nd: Robert M. La Follette, Jr. (Progressive-WI), December 21, 1932 - October 29,
 1945

Initially picked to be Provisional President by a wide coalition that removed Hoover, La Follette was to serve until 1934 special election. However, after failure of a so-called Business Plot in 1934 he imposed an authoritarian rule. Although credited for presiding over recovery and massive economic and societal changes, La Follette was forced to resign as well shortly after victory in World War II. However, before stepping down he managed to organize his numerous supporters into two allied political parties: a left-wing Labor Party he himself chaired and centrist Liberal Party.

33rd: H. Fiske Stone (I-NH), October 29, 1945 - January 31, 1946

As highly respected Chief Justice, Stone was a natural pick for transitional president in between La Follette's resignation and new election.

34th: Dwight D. Eisenhower (Liberal-New York), January 31, 1946 - January 31, 1951

A former commander of the American Expeditionary Forces in Europe, Field Marshal Eisenhower served out an entire term.

35th: Robert M. La Follette, Jr. (Labor-Wisconsin), January 31, 1951 - August 24, 1954

Reclaimed the Presidency via free election, despite having no backing of the Liberal Party, forcing him to form a coalition with largely Upper South-based Volunteer Party. Having lost support in the course of his term, La Follette committed suicide.

36th: Albert A. Gore, Sr. (Volunteer-TN), August 24, 1954 - November 8, 1955

La Follette's Vice President, Gore was set out to serve the reminded of a term, before he himself took a "leave of absence" for health reason before his successor's inauguration.

37th: Joseph W. Martin, Jr. (Liberal-MA), November 8, 1955 - November 11, 1955

As Speaker of the House, Martin became Acting President upon Gore's declared leave. Fears he might attempt an auto-coup in order to prevent the President-elect from taking over led to Martin's removal by the loyal segments of the military after mere three days in power.

38th: Theodore F. Green (Liberal-RI), November 11, 1955 - January 31, 1956

As President pro tempore of the Senate, Gree replaced Martin as Acting President, with the Congress declaring Gore's leave of absence as "permanent". Ruled under the state of siege.

39th: Thomas E. Dewey (Liberal-New York), January 31, 1956 - January 31, 1961

Elected under reconstituted Liberal-Labor coalition, Dewey embarked on a massive program of public works, dubbed "fifty years of progress in five", including building a new capital, Americana, in the interior of the country.

40th: Earl K. Long (Populist-LA), January 31, 1961 - August 25, 1961

Elected in an upset under eclectic populist-conservative platform, Long's rule was cut short when he abruptly resigned, possibly in order to achieve greater power over fears of the VP being way to the left. His resignation was accepted by the Congress nonetheless.

41st: John W. McCormack (Liberal-MA), August 25, 1961 - September 8, 1961

As Speaker of the House, McCormack served as Acting President while negotiations were underway to allow the Vice President to assume powers.

42nd: Hubert H. Humphrey (Labor-MN), September 8, 1961 - April 1, 1964

Vice President under Dewey and Long (elected on separate ticket in 1960), Humphrey was a La Follette's political heir and protege. He was removed by a military coup.

43rd: John W. McCormack (Liberal-MA), August 25, 1961 - September 8, 1961

As Speaker of the House, McCormack served as Acting President again, following Humphrey's removal.


Vice Presidents:

Position vacant, then abolished, December 11, 1932 - September 19, 1946
32nd: Theodore F. Green (Liberal-RI), September 19, 1946 - January 31, 1951
33rd: Albert A. Gore, Sr. (Volunteer-TN), January 31, 1951 - August 24, 1954
Position vacant, August 24, 1954 - January 31, 1956
34th: Hubert H. Humphrey (Labor-MN), January 31, 1956 - August 25, 1961
Position vacant, August 25, 1961 - ...

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

44th: Field Marshal Maxwell D. Taylor, USA (Military-MO), April 15, 1964 – March 15, 1967

"Elected" indirectly by Congress, Taylor preferred to have a civilian rule restored after a "period of transition" and didn't want to do more than serve out Long's original term. A crackdown on the left wing began nonetheless, with the United States entering a period of military dictatorship.

45th: Air Marshal Curtis E. LeMay, USAF (National-CA),

Leader of a hardline military faction, LeMay presided over increasing wave of human and civil right abuses. The United States officially became a two-party state. Ruling National Party served as the regime's political wing, with legal, and powerless, opposition being limited to the Democratic movement. LeMay's reign was cut short after he suffered a debilitating stroke. 

Acting: Joint Chiefs of Staff, August 31, 1969 – October 30, 1969

Installed following LeMay's incapacity due to the military establishment not willing to allow LeMay's civilian Vice President to take over. Served until "election" of General Westmoreland.

46th: Colonel General William C. Westmoreland, USA (National-SC), October 30, 1969 – March 15, 1974

Westmoreland's rule marked the apex of the U.S. military regime.

47th: Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt, USN (National-VA), March 15, 1974 – March 15, 1979

Despite obstruction from the hardliners, Zumwalt adopted a more moderate stance with regards to political opposition with the aim of gradual, controlled democratization.

48th: Lieutenant General Brent Scowcroft, USAF (National-UT), March 15, 1979 – March 15, 1985

Continued the process of redemocratization that Zumwalt had started, culminating in allowing a free, though still indirect presidential election to succeed him.

28. Calvin Coolidge of MA Republican (1921-1925) VP Nicholas Longworth of OH
            A major depression and market crash hit in January 1924, sending Coolidge's popularity into the dump.

1: As a reaction to fears that a liberal third-party campaign could ruin his chances at the presidency, Vice Pres. Gore selects the liberal John Edwards as his running mate. A narrow win in Florida secures Gore's victory, but negative reactions to his carbon tax bill and "Clinton Fatigue" leads to a rehash of the 1992 election.

2: The moderate governor of New Jersey and her conservative running mate clinch the nomination as part of an effort to put Republicans back in the White House. However, this new Republican reign is cut short by a regularly-scheduled financial crisis in 2008. While Democrats claim that President Gore could have handled the situation, the Republicans push for austerity measures which prove unpopular.

3: The former Vermont governor had won his state's senate election in 2006, and decided to make a case for progressive reforms to the economy. Promising tighter banking regulation, the creation of "green" jobs for workers who lost employment as a result of the recession, and universal healthcare, Dean took the country by storm, and won in both 2008 and 2012, setting his running mate Blanche Lincoln up for the presidency in 2016...

4: However, Lincoln's centrism (which seemed like conservatism next to Pres. Dean) was not enough for primary voters, who had their hearts stolen by yet another Vermont Democrat, claiming to be the next wave of progressivism: the Democratic Socialist, Bernie Sanders. Sanders narrowly won the primary, but his radicalism did not appeal to the general electorate, who went for the likable, attractive Scott Brown of Massachusetts. Brown campaigned on reigning in federal spending and getting rid of some of the Dean era's unnecessary market reforms, while retaining universal healthcare (though he supported retooling it towards a "public option" system as opposed to Dean and Lincoln's "single payer" system). The charismatic Brown won re-election in 2020.

5: Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii was chosen as the new standard-bearer for the Democrats as the heir to Dean's legacy. As the market began to waver in mid-2024, Gabbard pinned this on Brown's deregulatory policies, which led to her election for fear of repeating the 2008 crash. Gabbard also campaigned on restricting immigration and repealing international trade deals such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership, an early accomplishment of Brown's. Gabbard famously stated in her victory speech that "The forgotten men and women of this country will be forgotten no longer" and that "We will no longer surrender this country or its people to the false song of globalism."

TL;DR: As a result of a Gore presidency and twelve straight years of democrat rule, by 2025 the Republicans become socially-moderate globalist neoliberals and the democrats start to become become fiscally-progressive isolationists
