25. So that's a best case scenario, and I wish I were that optimistic.

On the other side of the hope ledger, you have:

Mueller's report never sees the light of day, or at least, the parts that incriminate Trump and his campaign. The only portions they release are those that debunk certain salacious accusations in the dossier, for example. Trump claims victory, says that it proves he did nothing wrong (remember: Kavanaugh never touched anyone at all ever because he's on the Supreme Court now, right?).

We stagger forward through 2019 just like the previous two years: crisis after crisis, humiliating behavior from the President, etc., all while the economy slows. The 2020 campaign becomes absolutely brutal, with Democrat after Democrat taking shots at Trump but nothing connects. They then start fighting among themselves and the various liberal camps.

The Booker/Buttigieg ticket gets steamrolled in both popular and electoral votes. Republicans retake the House and expand their Senate majority. RBG doesn't make it, and Breyer also has to step down. Clarence Thomas also decides now is a good time to leave. So yeah: FIVE Supreme Court nominees. It's the Trump Court for 25-30 years.

Roe v. Wade is struck down, the wall goes up, parents are deported leaving their U.S. born kids here. Roving MAGA hats openly attack anyone with a complexion darker than a cappuccino.

I like your future a lot better, but I can't see how the above doesn't happen with the way things have been going.
