AH Challenge: President Joe McCarthy

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to have senator Joseph McCarthy achieve the presidency. Likewise, this thread is to discuss the consequences and results of such thing. As death is relative, he doesn't necessarily have to die in '57, but take into account his alcoholism and eventual degenerating health.

Some may call it ASB, but that's why its a challenge.:D

And "The Tank Gap" by yours truly. I have the next update ready - it's just that I had a three-week trip that I partially forgot about and so I am separated from my home computer.
 
The fact that such a misfortune never came to pass suggests to me that Bismarck was right about drunks and the United States of America.
 
What if?

Well, America becomes an opressive fascist state. Criticize McCarthy, and you die or your life is ruined.
 
How about a POTUS J. Edgar Hoover (R) with McCarthy as VP, Bricker in State, and MacArthur in Defense. Now that's fascism...
