6. I predict Rump will be a four term tyrant
Sun Sep 16, 2018, 01:08 PM
Sep 2018

Here's how I arrive at that conclusion:

1. Mid-terms go badly for the Rs, but not so badly that they can't ram through more legislation
2. Rs pass a bill doing away with term limits for presidents
3. The next three presidential elections are rigged by Russia
4. Rump reigns until he dies of old age
5. Nobody stands up to Rs, and they effectively institute a monarchy through family succession
6. Don Jr is 'president' till he dies of old age

And that's how bad it is folks. It's super bad. We might as well just give up now.
