I've often thought about this, especially from a '40s perspective, when they saw FDR as this Energizer Bunny who would keep going on and on and on. I agree that six terms is about all he could have gotten. His vision for the American-led new world order would be very quickly challenged by the Soviets as in our world. McCarthy and the new generation of Cold Warriors wanted leadership and would have gone after him for it, not to mention he couldn't keep pushing off the Civil Rights question forever. I think 1956 Roosevelt would be seen similarly to 1974 Nixon: corrupt, paranoid, autocratic. What direction the Democrats take from there depends on the position he takes on Civil Rights.

Not sure FDR would have been that corrupt. Interesting question is which prez would have been elected to the most terms if he ran over and over again until he loses. I think Clinton would have pulled it off again in 2004, but zero chance in 2008, especially with the recession. Eisenhower and Reagan may have won 1964 and 1992 respectively. But it would have been close.

Maybe Teddy Roosevelt? I guess it depends on what he does with WWI.

Is this a Dukakis victory by universal swing?

Yes, a pretty narrow win (I believe the tipping point state is MI which he wins by 0.1%).

I always love doing these universal-swing-to-make-the-opponent-win maps because they allow you to see the underlying trends. You can kinda make out the 1992 map here with Montana and the slow Democratic improvement in the Minnesota-to-Louisiana stack (which started with the Farm Crisis). Also note how close South Dakota is, a staple of '60s-'80s maps- maybe all those Humphrey-McGovern voters.

Here's a fairly even electoral flip of 1896.

President Ronald Wilson Reagan (R-CA) / Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush (R-TX) ✔
Senator Gary Warren Hart (D-CO) / Senator John Herschel Glenn, Jr. (D-OH)

Stereotypical best map possible against Reagan in 1984.

What percentage of the popular vote do you see McCarthy/Brown getting?

Maybe around 5%-15%? Enough to give Nixon a plurality in critical states, but not enough to win any electoral votes.

My Prediction for 2016 (Uh, I Can Explain)



Fmr. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D-NY) / HUD Secretary Julián Castro (D-TX) ✓
Congressman Paul Ryan (R-WI) / Governor Brian Sandoval (R-NV)


How I thought 2016 would go circa 2014. Where Romney failed in the Midwest because he looks like the guy who fired you, Ryan does this because he's the guy who'll actually fire you (objectivism and all that). He does, however, flip Colorado and New Hampshire because muh libertarianism, and brings Virginia home because Sandoval has that moderate appeal (young me unaware that Virginia has actually shifted Democratic because of demographics). Marco Rubio probably wins in 2020 and everyone lives happily ever after.

Obama wont lose PA with Biden on the ballot

Keep in mind, this is a superhero world where a major disaster just hit in New York City on the president's watch, and Pennsylvania was the closest of the Rust Belt three in our 2012. And I don't buy that Biden = Pennsylvania anyway.

2020



President Donald Trump (R-FL) / Vice President Mike Pence (R-IN)
Fmr. Vice President Joe Biden (D-DE) / Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) ✓

Turnout is depressed with older voters in particular. Biden ekes out a victory.

2024



Vice President Kamala Harris (D-CA) / Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) ✓
Fmr. Governor Nikki Haley (R-SC) / Fmr. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo (R-KS)

The 2020-22 recession enters a slow recovery. Experts proclaim a Sino-American Cold War. Biden's Vice President runs. The Warren Democrats push for Sherrod Brown as the running mate, get brushed aside, and take it like true progressives. In the GOP primaries, old names like Cruz go nowhere. Ron DeSantis and Rick Scott destroy each other, Josh Hawley is unable to expand his base beyond the Midwest. Haley ekes out a narrow victory and loses the general.

2028



President Kamala Harris (D-CA) / Vice President Andrew Cuomo (D-NY)
Governor Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) / Fmr. Governor Kristi Noem (R-SD) ✓

The economy tanks again. For a few days, war in the South China Sea looks inevitable. Peak oil looks likely in the near future. The Republican wins big with rhetoric similar to Trump only hawkish and stern.

2032



President Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) / Vice President Kristi Noem (R-SD) ✓
Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) / Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)

The Iran War is underway. Troops bring SARS-CoV-3 home.

What is this PV

I must be exhausted because when I first saw this I thought "woah that's a giant landslide"

I don't bother with the popular vote but it's probably a slim Democrat victory.
