When you make a movie, you can play it back at any speed you like :-). If it were shown in real time it would take 4 years and be far less interesting to watch :-)

American farmers overwhelmingly voted for Trump, they should pay the same tariffs their candidate has imposed on all other Americans, no special handouts. From @theatlantic.com www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
I am surprised that DHS views the risk of right wing extremism as high. It seems that they have already won and have taken full control.

I doubt there will be another election. Even if there is, it certainly will be as corrupt as Putin's elections.
