Fast forward to Christmas 2017. Predictions?

2016 was a shit show. Will 2017 be worse? What are your predictions regarding Trump's presidency...impeachment, world war, repeal of the first amendment, Judge Judy on the Supreme Court? Will we even exist as a country? Where will we be next year at this time? It will be interesting to look back on this thread.

On the roads it was a white-line nightmare. Only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive. The gangs took over the highways, ready to wage war for a tank of juice. And in this maelstrom of decay, ordinary men were battered and smashed. Men like Max. The warrior Max. In the roar of an engine, he lost everything. And became a shell of a man, a burnt out, desolate man, a man haunted by the demons of his past, a man who wandered out into the wasteland. And it was here, in this blighted place, that he learned to live again...”

I have no way to predict why, but Trump is so unqualified that somehow I don't think he will serve out a term as President.

We will be at war in the Middle East, Russia will have taken the Ukraine, and HUGE tax cuts will have been passed for the upper 1 %, who have suffered so under President Obama.

But as long as we have the "Kartrashians", Monday Night Football, and Mega Churches, no one will be paying much attention.

Oh yeah: it will be proven that votes were flipped in the swing states to give Donald of Orange the win in 2016 and the Democrats will issue strongly worded letters to Republicans, telling them to "cut it out!"

At least the Chicago Cubs will repeat as World Champions!
