44. Imagine Trump as El Presidente for life

And his crime family installed permanently as the ruling dynasty of America Inc.

Pence would be the pope I guess to keep the fake Christians happy as they outlaw any and all religions that don't worship the all mighty dominunist/prosperity/holy dollar.

Religious sharia laws will soon follow. It's coming. People want to think this could never happen here yet its happening as we speak.

Look to Saudi Arabia to see what America will become if democrats don't win big in 2018.

I'm sure the republicans want us all living in garbage dumps with zero safety net, child labor, no public education or public anything health care for the rich only, social security nothing but a distant memory and only white male land owners allowed to vote. MAGA baby.

Amerika will withdraw inside its borders while Russia and China rule the world. Well maybe our bloated military will be used to fight Putin's wars who knows?

Hopefully I'll be dead before all this gets into high gear but I pity the kids I see nowadays and the young adults that never give a thought about voting. They have no idea whats coming down the road for them.
