2020: Donald Trump/Mike Pence (R) defeat Pete Buttigieg/Stacey Abrams (D)

2024: Elise Stefanik (46) /Tom Cotton (R) defeat Hakeem Jeffries/Elizabeth Warren (D)

2028: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (47) /Tom Winter (D) defeat Elise Stefanik/Tom Cotton (R)

2032: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez/Tom Winter (D) defeat John James/Anthony Gonzalez (R)

2036: Katie Hill (48) /Cori Bush (D) defeat George P. Bush/Guy Reschenthaler (R)

2040: Katie Hill/Cori Bush (D) defeat Spencer Head/Woodrow Johnston (R)

2044: Nicholas Fuentes (49) /Jack Blakely (R) defeat Rebecca Pinn/Sasha Luks (D)

2048: Terri Chapman (50) / Hannah Wroblewski (D) defeat Nicholas Fuentes/Jack Blakely (R)

I'm huge fan of AOC but I doubt she will ever be president, and is she eligible by 2028. She's still only 29? i think. Maybe barely. But AOC should succeed Bernie Sanders and aim to become senator.

AOC will be about 39 years old in '28.

I don't see Hawley as a VP pick ... if he gets anywhere near the Presidency it will be because GOP primary voters are so enamored with him that he wins (which I am skeptical will happen).  If Trump proves anything, it's that you just have to say a populist thing or two to get elected ... once another Republican candidate has already won the nomination, I am highly skeptical they would 1) want Hawley on the ticket or 2) feel the need to include him.

[OBD]

Democratic best-case. Not likely, but possible.

46: Fmr. Vice President Joe Biden (D-DE)/Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) (2021-2025)
47: Vice President Kamala Harris (D-CA)/Governor Roy Cooper (D-NC) (2025-2033)
48: Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR)/Governor Jon Husted (R-OH) (2033-2038) (resigns in corruption scandal - war in Middle East)
49: Vice President Jon Husted (R-OH)/Vacant (2038) (resigns after pardoning Cotton)
50: Speaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)/Vacant (2038)
Speaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)/Fmr. Governor Andrew Yang (2038-2040) (resigns due to health complications from assassination attempt)
51: Fmr. Governor Andrew Yang (D-NY)/Vacant (2040)
Fmr. Governor Andrew Yang (D-NY)/Secretary of State Abby Finkenauer (D-IA) (2040-2041)
Fmr. Governor Andrew Yang (D-NY)/Governor Malia Obama (D-IL) (2041-2049)
52: Hispanic Republican (R-TX)/Moderate Governor (R-OR) (2049-2057)

Notable tidbits:
- Jon Husted displaces WHH as the shortest serving president, serving for a mere 19 days.
- AOC was shot in the head at a campaign rally in New York City by a religious extremist. She recovered, but decided to resign due to potential brain damage from the wound.
- Kamala Harris was the first female president and the first (partially) Asian president.
- The United States was at war with Iran from 2034 to 2038. The conflict also involved China, who helped supply Iran. The war ended in a stalemate when President AOC requested the Ayatollah for an armistice.
- The Republicans held the senate from 2015 to 2039, a 24-year period of control. They also regained the Senate in 2043, meaning that since 2015 Democrats have only held the Senate for four years (though they did win it back in 2055).

Why so many one-term GOPers lol?

Why so many one-term GOPers lol?

In the case of my most recent addition, I only had one one-term Republican, and I factored in the business cycle in my list.

Oh I see does the business cycle also explain the predominantly Democratic presidents?

Yup, they caught the good end of it, as has been the case for most of the last 50 years. Carter was the only Democrat in that time frame that caught the bad end of the business cycle.

Interesting, so let’s say hypothetically, Republicans somehow win 2024, but then lose 2028. This would be very good for them in the 2030s and 2040s?

It would be outside of the 2030 senate races where they’ll likely be maxed out.

Time for a nearly 21-months-later update:

46. Joe Biden, 2021-2029
47. Kamala Harris, 2029-20337

Wow, they really were the most predictable ticket. In any event, obviously a lot more reason to feel pretty confident about the above. Hell, if there's anything to the "2020=1896" argument, then maybe Kamala will even end up being a two-termer in her own right, though it's gonna be a few good years before I'm willing to go that far in terms of a prediction that's actually concrete & not just pure speculation in the wind. Even still, though, probably willing to change up some of the below just because I don't see Stefanik (&, by extension, Young) winning a GOP presidential primary - even in the late 2030s - if the GOP continues down what appears to be its current (still very much influenced-by-Trump) track:

48. Elise Stefanik, 2033-2041
49. Todd Young, 2041-2045
50. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 2045-2053

48. Dan Crenshaw, 2037-2045
49. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 2045-2053
50. AOC's VP, 2053-2057
