I'll go first:

  • Libs will suddenly discover that there's concentration camps in Gaza. This will lead to one protest with cheeky signs.
  • Someone assassinates a prominent politician (not Trump)
  • McDonalds' releases a new burger, which Trump tweets about.
  • John Bolton releases a new book.
  • Trump inflames tensions with Indonesia or Mauritania, suddenly everyone is a geopolitical expert
  • Trump pledges to give more weapons to Ukraine after meeting Zelensky. Stops all support after meeting Putin, pretends not to have made the previous pledge.
  • Trump will do a minor goof which libs will bring up for the next four years. His supporters will carry around comfort blankets to show support

People will organise, riot on the streets. The military will be called in to stop them, but they will be stretched too thin to handle the crowds. People demanding their rights to healthcare, education, community, freedom and an end to capitalism.

They will march on the seat of power, but unlike the Chuds of Jan 6, once they have power they will use it to change the status quo once and for all. The USA will finally have a real democracy, one run by the people and not the oligarchs. They will stop funding overseas wars, and instead focus on funding industry at home, especially science and education.
