22. Yes, the result being Frankenstein monster Trump.

On the one hand, the perfect Republican president because he'll sign anything. From the book "Kochland": "the politics that Koch stoked in 2010 became the policies that Trump enacted in 2017." Koch in 2018: "we've made more progress in the last five years than I had in the previous fifty." Trump did everything the plutocrats wanted, while pretending to be a populist.

On the other hand, the monster is out of control, it is all rage, took the racism that gets Republican elected way too far and things have come to this.
