  • Pat Schroeder


    - I just received the information that I have no more chances of being elected President.

    The audience booed and some began to cry.

    - But this walk does not end here! I believed in a future, I believed in a better world, I believed that I was the right person for this, I believed that I would be the first woman President of the United States of America. And you want to know something? I still believe faithfully in all these things! I believe!

    The audience applauded cheerfully.

    - We got through, we broke the glass ceiling. We've made history, but we'll do even more. I believe that this country is ready and I believe that this country needs a capable government. I want to thank all those who accompanied me on this journey. I want to thank Joe! Joe, you're wonderful, the best vice I could ever want.

    The audience applauded and cheered screaming Joe! Joe! Joe!

    - And above all, I want to thank you. To all of you who believed and voted for me.

    At this moment Pat Schroeder began to cry.

    - I will fight for you! This battle is not over! We're going to demand recounting in Nebraska, we're going to demand a recount in Missouri, recount in Iowa, recount anywhere we might have won. I believe! I believe that on January 20, 1993, I will be entering the White House! God bless the America! God Bless us all! I believe!
     
    1992 Senate Election
  • 1992 Senate Election


    In 1992 the Senators from 34 states would be chosen. 6 seats controlled by the Republicans, 12 seats by the AIP and 16 seats by the Democrats. President Donald Trump's party thanked that disastrous election not occur in Class 2 of the Senate, where the party controlled 21 seats (including in fragile states like Michigan, Minnesota and New Jersey).

    The most fragile seats controlled by AIP were Idaho, Missouri and Utah. For some time it was thought that Florida would be contested, but Hawkins's popularity soon secured re-election for her.

    In Idaho Republican candidate Dirk Kempthorne defeated Senator Richard H. Stallings by double-digit margin. In Missouri, the dispute between former governor Kit Bond and Senator Gene Taylor was one of the most watched in the country. Until the last moment it seemed that Taylor would win, but when the votes began to leave, Kit Bond was elected with a margin of 2%.

    In Utah, the 92-year-old Senator Ezra Taft Benson announced that he would retire before the start of the campaign. It was reported that the senator suffered from dementia, stroke and heart attacks. But when polls showed that Donald Trump was taking the AIP in Utah to the bottom, the Senator decided to run again. His illnesses were the recurring and most important theme of the campaign. Few believed that the Senator would survive a new term. In any case the people of Utah conceded, by a tiny margin, the re-election to Benson.

    In Illinois the Democratic Party attempted to make history by nominating an African-American woman for the Senate. If she was elected, Carol Moseley Braun would be the first. His main opponent was Republican Richard S. Williamson. The AIP launched its own candidate, but Senator John B. Anderson informally supported Williamson. Dehydration of the AIP candidacy in favor of Williamson (or against Moseley Braun, better speaking) gave Illinois victory for the GOP.

    In the end the favorable map prevented the AIP from suffering a major loss, but still lost two seats, with the Democrats losing one. Republicans had a gain of 3 seats. But the AIP remained the largest party in the Senate.

  • 1992 House of Representatives Election


    Unlike the Senate there was a favorable map to stanch the bleeding in the AIP. Even President Donald Trump was pessimistic about projections in the House. When the votes were cleared, the AIP had lost more than 20 seats. However due to the gains in 1990 he had managed to remain still the biggest party of the House.

    The AIP leaders cursed Donald Trump. Before its popularity dropped, there was a good chance that the AIP would get a majority in the House, something that no party had achieved since 1966. But deep inside the AIP there was no reason to blame Trump, after all if it destroyed the party's popularity, it was also him who created it.

  • 1992 Gubernatorial Election



    In 1992 the governors of 12 states would be chosen, 5 states being controlled by the AIP, 4 by the Democrats and 3 by the Republicans. Despite the bad timing of the AIP, they were favored in most states they would have to defend (new gains were out of the question).

    In Missouri Governor Dick Gephardt was very popular, but being in Donald Trump's party and his state being constantly visited by the other presidential candidates ended up making the race one of the tightest in the country. Gephardt's opponents were Mel Carnahan and John Ashcroft. Until the last day the election looked like a three-way tie. Gephardt was re-elected for only 0.3%

    In New Hampshire, Governor Lyndon LaRouche, considered the most controversial governor of the entire AIP, was in great trouble. Polls indicated he would not make 20 percent of the vote in his quest for the election. In the year of Trumpism he had won his election by only 0.2%. As expected, LaRouche lost and lost ugly, getting only 19% of the vote for his re-election. Former Governor John H. Sununu replaced him.

    Despite the decrease in AIP votes everywhere, the party lost only one state. The division now was 23 states for the AIP, 18 for the Democrats and 9 for the GOP.

    Recounts
  • Recounts


    As expected, recounts were requested in dozens of states for all three campaigns. One by one the states were finishing their recount and informing: the winner on the day of the election was repeated.

    Donald Trump was feeling increasingly confident about his re-election. He had traveled to Israel again, where he dealt with preparations for the landing of American troops in Iraq. After Israel the President went to Moscow, where he had a friendly meeting with President Boris Yeltsin.

    But then a recount announced its outcome. And then everything changed. The recount in Maine's second congressional district found that instead of Donald Trump winning the state by 1 vote, former Texas Senator George H. W. Bush will win by 3 votes.

    With this result the President-elect became George Bush. Pat Schroeder announced that he recognized Bush as president-elect and granted the election. President Donald Trump did not accept it. He shouted in the White House "a Trump never to lose, I never lose!"

    Donald Trump appealed to the Supreme Court. George Bush complained that the case should be handled in the Maine Supreme Court, but the Supreme Court soon began deliberations.

    The outcome could still change, but at that time George Bush was the President-elect of the United States of America.

    Donald J. Trump v. George H. W. Bush
  • Donald J. Trump v. George H. W. Bush



    The important and controversial case Donald John Trump and Don Fuqua v. George Herbert Walker Bush and Lowell Palmer Weicker Jr. was analyzed by the press and the public. In it President Donald Trump requested a new recount in the 2nd District of Maine. George Bush considered the recount valid and that the Maine Supreme Court should hear the case.

    For a week the Supreme Court bent over the case, analyzing every inch. Meanwhile the public of the United States and the world awaited the decision. A new recount might very well change the result again.

    When December 7, 1992 arrived and the Supreme Court began to vote, the country stopped. Donald Trump was represented by Charles W. Pickering and George Bush was represented by Theodore Olson.

    Chief Justice Harry Blackmun was the first to speak. In a long and detailed vote, Blackmun considered the recount to be valid and no further recount was necessary.
    160325_CS_UB_Blackmun.jpg.CROP.promovar-medium2.jpg
    Shortly afterwards George Wallace defended a new recount in an emotional speech. He cited the rumors of fraud and the small margin of vote and stated at last: "If the result is true, a new recount will not affect you."

    Herman Talmadge followed Wallace's vote and reinforced his motives. Raymond P. Shafer accompanied Chief Justice Blackmun as well as Malcolm Wilson.

    Clarence Thomas said brief words where he defended the duty of the voice of the people to be heard, and for that a new recount should be made so that "we are sure what the voice of the people said". The score was tied at 3-3. John Paul Stevens followed Blackmun's vow, stressing that recounting was by no means a method of ignoring popular will.

    And then came the turn of Byron White, the longest court member and the only one nominated by a Democrat (John Kennedy). For a few minutes White defended the value of the vote and the validity of the recounts. But finally, to the surprise of many, he argued that a new recount was not undemocratic and did not violate any principle, but rather was a further instrument to validate the popular will.
    0.jpg
    Everyone who was watching knew that it was over. The score was 4-4 and the last remaining vote was from Associate Justice Maryanne Trump Barry. As expected, she voted for her brother.

    A new recount would happen in the Second District of Maine.
     
    A New Recount
  • A New Recount


    As the eyes of the whole country turned back to Maine, the population began to cling to George Bush. President Donald Trump was being portrayed as childish and unable to recognize defeat. Even though he was the least voted candidate and lost the recount in Maine, he appealed to the Supreme Court and won because of his own sister's vote.

    Both Donald Trump and George Bush traveled to Maine to accompany the new recount. Pat Schroeder announced that he was hoping Bush would replace Trump.

    Every television channel in the world had sent a reporter to Maine. Fans and protestors from every corner of the country had traveled to Maine. It was perhaps the most watched and expected political event of the century..

    And when a man came with a paper in his hand, everyone was prepared to hear who would be the next president of the United States. The photo of that man with that paper in his hands became one of the symbols of that election.

    a-man-looks-at-his-ballot-paper-before-voting-in-a-presidential-election-h5pwmj.jpg

    Everyone waited, everyone waited anxiously. The results would be read in alphabetical order, meaning everyone would know the winner soon. No matter how much they wavered on one side or the other, they were all ready to see that long and painful campaign come to an end.

    - The end result of the second recount of the 2nd Congressional District of Maine is:

    -George Herbert Walker Bush, 109,011 valid votes.

    The crowd looked at him in astonishment. Some hopeful, some afraid. In the earlier recount where Bush had won by 3 votes, the total amount was 109,004. Either Bush's advantage increased or some new votes were found.

    -Donald John Trump, 109,011 valid votes.

    The crowd was incredulous. The country did not understand. Perhaps he had mistaken himself and read the two equal numbers by mistake. What they heard could not happen. But the man continued.

    -Patricia Nell Scott Schroeder, 90,315 valid votes.

    It was official. The 2nd Congressional District of Maine, the decisive electoral vote for the result of the presidency, ended in an exact tie. No one knew what would happen. But then the journalists soon began to broadcast the information.

    One unique and important electoral vote in the 2nd District of Maine would be decided by a coin toss.
     
    January 20, 1993
  • January 20, 1993


    Since that fateful day when a coin toss has decided the President of the United States, many things have happened. Donald Trump was re-elected to the Electoral College as the least popular President in history.

    inauguration-day.jpg

    Protests broke out across the country. In Nova York, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, Philadelphia, San Antonio, Phoenix, Dallas. Everyone stood up in protest against Trump's re-election. Even his supporters were discontented. The least voted was elected President. A sister and a coin had given him the presidency.

    trump-protest-nyc-2000x1333.jpg

    The incumbent President soon tried to ignore the protests officially. But inside the White House the situation was tense, with the President desperately in need of an increase in popularity. His marriage to Marla Maples was done discreetly and without fanfare.

    A few days before January 20 the President traveled to Israel, where Yitzhak Shamir joined the Israeli army with troops arriving from America. And the march towards the liberation of Kuwait began.

    marla-maples-435.jpg

    The President also faced a war in his own country. Democrats and Republicans had joined in defending the end of the Electoral College, supported by the overwhelming majority of the population. Senator Bobby Kennedy, Senator Bob Dole, and Congressmen Donald Rumsfeld and Tom Foley gave a joint press briefing that they would begin filing the motion in Congress in the first week of Trump's new term. As defend was a totally election based on popular vote, with a runoff held case no candidate obtain 40% of votes.

    President Donald Trump was betting on a quick success in the Middle East. He was convinced that a new victory in a war would totally restore his worn-out popularity.
     
    Liberation of Kuwait
  • Liberation of Kuwait


    On 1 February 1993 American and Israeli troops entered the territory of Kuwait occupied by Iraq. The army advanced smoothly in the early hours of the day, until serious fighting began to take place.

    The victories were all to the American side. The tanks continued to advance toward Kuwait City. Donald Trump was waiting for the results along with Shamir in Israel, ready to fly to Kuwait City as soon as the city was released. His photos entering another capital in the name of freedom and peace would run the world, he was sure.

    On February 3, 1993, American troops arrived in Kuwait City. The fighting was extremely violent and lasted many hours. Much of what had survived the Iraqi invasion was destroyed in American liberation.

    Saddam Hussein ordered his troops to retreat and reorganize on the Iraqi border. Meanwhile Donald Trump and Yitzhak Shamir boarded Kuwait City. Its disembarkation was sumptuous and showed a great contrast with the ruined city.

    In his victory speech President Trump ordered Hussein to release the Emir and his family for normalcy to return to Kuwait. The President also stated "without total surrender the war does not end here. We still have many radical Islamist enemies to defeat in this region. "

    The next day the troops stationed in Kuwait began to reorder. But not all of them headed toward the Iraqi border, as expected. Donald Trump would announce a new enemy.
     
    Iraq
  • Iraq


    US troops began fighting on the border between Kuwait and Iraq at dawn the following day. The first results were easy victories for the American army. The troops advanced in the provinces of Basra and Muthanna.

    When the day dawned the capital of Basra province, also called Basra, was surrounded. The troops had already reached the province of Dhi Qar and were approaching their capital, Nasiriyah.

    The historic battle of Nasiriyah lasted two days and was a great victory for the United States. But while the battle was going on the American troops continued to advance toward the center of Iraq.
    maxresdefault.jpg
    As Baghdad approached the enemy army more and more, Saddam Hussein fled the capital in secret. On February 22, 1993 President Donald Trump announced on a national network that Iraq was under the control of American troops. Trump's speech that day shocked many Americans and attracted the anger of Muslims of various nationalities. Holding a white dove of peace, the President said:

    "The terrible dictator Saddam Hussein has fled from our hands, but we will not give up until we capture him. Iraq is under the control of our forces, but we will make it an example of democracy. Our troops will remain in the country and a US commission will be appointed to manage the entire transition of the country indefinitely. "

    Iraqis, and many other Muslims, considered this "American commission" a terrible affront to their independence. Even the European press calls this an attempt at colonialism on the part of Trump. But the greatest shock for all would come in the President's next words.
    Donald-Trump-Young3-300x275.jpeg
    "And now that we have achieved this great victory over the bloodthirsty Muslim dictator, we can not forget the past. Most of our presidents before me were weak, and one of the weakest was John Glenn. We must not forget that he doubled our country to the threats of another Muslim dictator. And this dictatorship remains to this day. We, the holders of the great democracy, can not refuse to spread it. Just north of Iraq is another enemy. Iran, Democracy will knock on your door. "
     
    American Senatorial Commission for Iraq's Transition to Democracy
  • American Senatorial Commission for Iraq's Transition to Democracy



    Public opinion on the American Commission to "rule" Iraq that President Trump had announced improved after some of its details were revealed. The main point is that it would be led by 3 senators, one indicated by each party. Along with a number of generals, diplomats and international observers.

    As soon as this was announced a debate began within the parties about who should be nominated. Everyone knew that this Commission would become famous and could help in the 1996 Election.

    To avoid controversy within the AIP, party leaders decided to appoint the most experienced member, Strom Thurmond, to his seat.
    220px-Strom_Thurmond.jpg
    The Democrats had several candidates, most targeting the succession of Donald Trump. Some older senators suggested the name of Kennedy, as a former president and one of the party's most experienced Senators. After many deliberations the three names that were put to the vote were Kennedy, Bayh and Clinton. The former president however announced that he was not interested. Bill Clinton, the southern hope for the Democrats in 96 ', was the nominee.
    220px-44_Bill_Clinton_3x4.jpg
    The Republicans initially thought to nominate Senator Maureen Reagan, a leading candidate for 96, but the fact that she was a woman attracted prejudice from prominent party members. There was some rumor that Senator George Bush would resign in an agreement for his father to be appointed in his place, but the party decided not to trust an AIP governor. Finally, with little consensus, the party appointed John McCain to its seat.
    John_McCain_Official_Other_Version.jpg
    After the three senators were elected, an internal election among the three unilaterally appointed Thurmond the chairman of the commission. And the next day they embarked for Iraq.
     
    A New War
  • A New War


    The first weeks of the Commission in Iraq were strangely calm. Most of the people saw with disbelief, and even anger, those Americans ruling their country. Commission President Senator Thurmond spent most of his time in the United States, while Bill Clinton and John McCain dealt with the great problems of running an enemy country.
    w460.jpg
    Clinton and McCain met with local officials, military personnel who had supported the Invasion and tried to construct a positive image of the War. Their goal was to complete Iraq's transition as quickly as possible, to sell a successful image of "transforming a country."

    But as both struggled to improve the situation, President Donald Trump did not give up his idea of expanding the war. He had already announced that his goal was to advance over Iran, and he had promised Shamir to liquidate the Palestinian state and Arafat. And Trump imagined the immense popularity that would have brought down Mubarak, Gadaffi and Al-Assad.

    And when the President had a wish, he fulfilled it. Trump invited Senator Thurmond to the White House and in a long meeting, he commissioned a report on the situation in Iraq. Without consulting the members of the Commission who were actually living with the situation, Thurmond wrote the report that Trump wanted, informing all members of Congress that the population was agitated and planning an attack on American troops. He also wrote that the information indicated that other Muslim dictators would be funding the riots.

    strom-thurmond.jpg

    The next day, Donald Trump sent Congress a declaration of war against Iran. The measure was passed by a minuscule margin. That night the President spoke to the nation.

    "My beloved Americans! Our desire for democracy is too great to be sated! The damned Muslims can not see one of their countries becoming a democracy! Iran and its cruel dictator have fought for years against Saddam Hussein, but now they prefer to side with him than to live with a democracy on their border! This is War! And this war will not end in Iran! Today I promise you, no goddamn Muslim will reign in the Arab world! "



    In another continent, in an underground room, Saddam Hussein was informed about the pronouncement of Donald Trump. The former dictator was hiding and planned to hide for years, until the day when the winds indicate his return to power. But his former tormentor could now become his benefactor.

    "-Donald Trump, you just did the impossible! You brought us together!”

    An Impossible Alliance
  • An Impossible Alliance


    Saddam Hussein had been nervous for days. The fear that his messenger had been taken and denounced his hiding place was great, but he had preferred to risk it. One of his most faithful men had volunteered to carry a message to Iran.
    saddam.jpg

    Never in his life had Hussein imagined that day would come. Asking for help for his former enemy by offering an alliance. But Donald Trump had caused this, a sense of unity growing on both sides of the Muslim religion. The war between Iran and Iraq could continue after they both got rid of the evil American president.

    Ayatollah Khomeini was in delicate health and at the height of his 90 years, death seemed to be near. But even with the problems, Khomeini was still a major critic of the United States, which he called "Great Satan."

    Saddam was aware that his position in Iraq was weak today, but believed that a Muslim alliance, comprising several leaders in the region, would be able to return control of his country to him, as well as expel America definitively from the region.



    Hussein's wait took another day to finish. And when it finally ended, the result could not have been better. In short, the deposed dictator of Iraq was informed that Khomeini regarded Trump's latest threat worse than any other, and agreed with Saddam that at this time differences should be temporarily forgotten.

    Khomeini also offered asylum to him as long as his country was not reconquered. He reported that he had invited several Muslim leaders to a meeting in Tehran. Shiite and Sunni leaders. The purpose? An alliance considered impossible.

    250px-Portrait_of_Ruhollah_Khomeini_By_Mohammad_Sayyad.jpg

    Hussein thought it might all be Khomeini's betrayal to capture his old enemy, but in reality he did not have much to lose. Immediately a plan began to be created so that the dictator would arrive safe in the border with Iran, without being captured by the American troops.


    A few days passed. A mixture of anguish, fear and disbelief struck Saddam Hussein at the same time. Here he was, crossing the border of Iran. Not victorious, not conqueror, completely different from what he had imagined. He was receiving the reception of an ally. A military convoy awaited them. Hussein, his two sons Uday and Qusay, as well as his closest adviser Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri, were respectfully taken to a large military car, while other Iraqis who accompanied Hussein were distributed in the other cars of the convoy.

    _40274983_udayqusay_ap238.jpg

    "There is no turning back now. We must all unite or die at the hands of our enemies. At least history will remember me as the one who united the Arab world. " Hussein thought as he saw the border with his country falling behind. And when he could not see Iraq on the horizon, another thought came into his head, "Or maybe I'm remembered for destroying us all."

    A Message to All Muslims
  • A Message to All Muslims



    No one knows what was said or what was promised at that closed-door meeting in Tehran. The old Ayatollah Khomeini received in his country some of the most important Muslim leaders united by the American threat. Saddam Hussein, an exile from Iraq, Khomeini's biggest enemy, was now his guest of honor. Hafez al-Assad and his eldest son and heir Bassel al-Assad had arrived in Iran the day before. Muammar Gaddafi of Libya and Hosni Mubarak of Egypt arrived on the same day as Saddam. The next day, Yasser Arafat joined them. There were rumors that other leaders had been invited and refused, but this was never confirmed.
    21947v_standard.jpg
    In that meeting that brought together mortal enemies for the same purpose, an alliance was discussed. The terms remain secret until today, but at the end of the day, those six men held hands and announced their alliance to the world.
    261.jpg
    Together they recorded a message for all Muslims. Independently whether Shiites or Sunnis, or any other minority. The message at this time was one of union. We will continue the war afterwards, first we must defeat our enemy in common. Get your hands on your Muslim enemies, take up arms and look to the West. We will put the United States on our knees.

    By the end of that week the entire Middle East had received that message. Donald Trump was exultant. Now he had a clear and obvious reason for the war.

    McCain and Clinton knew that their situation in Iraq was becoming more and more dangerous. The city slowly lit up. Rumors, which they both believed, said that the primary goal of the new alliance was to drive Americans out of Iraq.

    sen_john_mccain_r_ariz_walks_near_the_senate_floor_during_saturdays_session.jpg

    Like the sparks that start a fire of gigantic proportions, they both received the news of a car exploding in the street of the American embassy. Portraits of President Trump burned in public square. A bomb exploding at the airport. Worrying events, but they knew that soon everything would get worse.

    Baghdad, Iraq, 3h PM


    Senators John McCain and Bill Clinton had decided to advance their daily meeting early this afternoon due to rumors of a strong possibility of terrorist acts that day.

    In recent weeks, since the Muslim Alliance had been announced and President Donald Trump had continued daily pouring hatred against Muslims on a national network, the situation in Iraq was unsustainable.

    Every week they had to deal with explosions and suspicions of terrorism. The radicals were creating courage and becoming more and more daring.

    During the meeting, where military personnel were also present, they were informed that a suspicious move was taking place near the International Airport as well as the American Embassy.
    a40273a6ff13283f0b98b38e7d209d3a.JPG
    About 40 minutes after the meeting began, an officer entered the room running, reporting that a major explosion had occurred at the airport.

    In the next ten minutes the information that came in was increasingly disturbing: it was not just one, but several blasts. The death toll could exceed 200. Quickly the information collected was passed to the United States.


    Jacksonville, Florida, 9h AM


    President Donald Trump attended a rally in Jacksonville, accompanied by Florida Governor Anita Bryant. Since the announcement of the Muslim Alliance, Trump's popularity had been rising slowly, and he had decided to hold rallies across the country as if on a campaign trail.
    anita_bryant.jpg
    At the end of his speech, full of declarations of victory, the President gave way to Governor Bryant for her to speak. As he stepped away from the microphone an officer approached the President and quietly warned that information had come from Iraq about a major terrorist attack at the airport, possibly with hundreds of dead.

    -Have televisions already been informed of this?

    -Not yet Mr. President, but the news will start to spread in a few minutes.


    Trump Tower, New York, 9h15m AM


    The First Lady of the United States, Marla Maples Trump, spent much of the week in her apartment at the top of the Trump Tower. Accustomed to the spotlight, she preferred bustling New York to Washington and its boring politicians.

    The Trump Tower itself was teeming with people. The shops were full of customers, the refined residents slowly waking up, visitors admiring the beautiful atrium.
    05142043709499.jpg
    The First Lady loved that place. From her window she could see Manhattan fluttering downstairs. She turned on the television. Urgent news was on CNN.

    A large-scale terrorist attack had occurred at Baghdad International Airport, initial estimates of more than three hundred dead.

    -This is horrible! Where will this crazy world go?

    Baghdad, Iraq, 4h20m PM


    The American Embassy was isolated and surrounded by security guards. Security officials debated whether it would be safer to keep McCain and Clinton at the embassy or escort them to a neutral and unfamiliar place.

    After much debate it was decided that both would be escorted to hotels near the Embassy. For security reasons it was decided that several cars would leave the place, all taking different directions and going to different places. The Senators would go in separate cars, to different hotels.

    The plan was considered risky, but reports said a new attack on the embassy was imminent.

    President Trump is furiously following the news of the Baghdad bombing spread across all television stations. The presidential plane is already being prepared for the president's return to Washington.

    While remaining in Florida after his rally with Governor Bryant, Trump is in urgent contact with the capital, discussing the dire consequences of the bombing.

    -This is a damn challenge to my authority! We should not have an inch of pity for these bastards.



    Baghdad, Iraq, 4h 40min PM


    As his car raced through the streets of Baghdad, Senator McCain remembered his old wartime circumstances. In the streets the crowd screamed, some desperate, some excited. The city did not support the terrorists, but they interpreted the explosions as a clear attack on the hated American invaders.

    As the Senator recalled from Vietnam, from his time as a prisoner, from those dark days of resistance, his thoughts were interrupted by a sudden braking of the car.

    -Some problem?

    - It's all right Senator, there was an accident on the street ahead, we'll take a detour.

    -Let's hurry, there's something bad going on in this city today.

    The driver began to talk on the radio to warn the cars carrying security at the front and back, but in a few seconds an explosion was heard.

    With a huge crash the car in front, where they were American military, exploded. The driver of the Senator's car immediately began to divert, but three men will run toward the car. In a few moments, they exploded.

    The First Lady continued to watch the news about Iraq on television. Images of the airport exploded, with people crying and running, thrilled her. Reports of other explosions in the Iraqi capital and of various confusions and "battles" over the city were reported at this time.

    Marla wondered what her husband was doing now.

    -Donald must be furious, I can not imagine what he's going to do with these terrorists."

    In New York, despite the clash of news, life was still normal.

    Senator Bill Clinton was only a few blocks from his hotel when he received two bad news. The American embassy had suffered a major bombing, resulting in several military and civilian personnel killed and wounded. And, perhaps even more shocking, there were reports that an assassination attempt on the escort of McCain had blown up the Senator's car.

    -Donald Trump caused this mess. The blood of McCain and all the innocents is in the hands of this damn crazy. I swear that when we return to the United States, he will not complete his term.

    At this point, a confusion started in the streets and Senator Clinton heard shots. At a glance, he noticed that the military were getting out of the cars that escorted him and began responding to the shots.

    - Get down Senator, we're getting out of here.

    The President was preparing to embark on the presidential plane when one of his aides ran up in despair.

    -President, I have bad news.

    -I just heard about the McCain attack, things can’t get any worse.

    -President ...

    -These terrorists will regret the day they defied Donald Trump.

    -President, I just was informed that a plane ...

    -What?

    -A plane just crashed into the Trump Tower.

    New York City, New York, 10h 10min AM



    Was this really happening? It was what all the New Yorkers, and soon all the Americans, wondered incessantly as they saw that unlikely, chaotic and terrible scene.

    Trump Tower. That skyscraper in the middle of Manhattan, right on Fifth Avenue, how could that be? People walking on the street, worried about events in Iraq, saw that plane increasingly approaching the iconic "House of the President." And then the roar, the screams, the fright, the smoke, the fire.

    Soon the crowd was concentrated in the street, while police evacuated the area and countless firemen entered the building.

    In the air, 10h 20min AM



    -Any news?

    The president was desperate to find out if his wife was in the building.

    -Our information is that the First Lady was in the building at the time of the accident.

    -Not an accident. Attack. An attack on MY territory. A personal attack.

    The President could not even speak. The anger was so great that some even worried that the President would have an attack right there.

    His beloved Trump Tower. His beloved building on fire and destroyed. The damned terrorists would pay with their own lives for this affront.

    But for a little while, Trump could not stop thinking: this will save my popularity. "I will no longer be the president elected by a coin and I will become the savior and martyr of this country".



    New York City, New York, 10h 50min AM



    The whole world broadcast live the burning Trump Tower. From California to Tokyo, from London to Rio de Janeiro, all over Europe, all over Russia, on the fringes of Africa and even in the Islamic world, everyone was watching that scene.

    And everyone was watching as it started to collapse. And everyone knew how many people were dying in those seconds. That would be a day forever remembered in the history of the country, in the history of the world. This was the day when the enemy had invaded the American territory and made a personal attack on the President and an attack of honor against New York, an attack on that pulsating and lively city. That city that today was united, united and broken.


    Washington DC, 15h PM


    President Trump was with his three-month-old daughter Tiffany in his arms as he walked toward the microphone. A crowd gathered to see him and hear him. His speech was broadcast internationally.

    - American people! Today they tried to break us, today they tried to make us orphans! Today our enemies were certain that they would see us on our knees tomorrow. For they are utterly deceived. They have broken what was precious to us, but we are Americans, we have something they will never have: hope, unity and power! Today they managed to leave my little child orphaned, but they gave a mother to that country. And this mother who will lull us and motivate us is called Revenge.

    Donald Trump handed the little baby over to someone else and continued his speech.

    -Today they struck us a blow trying to destroy us! Tomorrow we will destroy them with all our potential! America falls asleep in mourning, but tomorrow will wake up with vengeance. We will honor our dead. We must mourn the death of hundreds of citizens who only lived their lives, we must mourn the death of my wife, but we must also mourn the death of John McCain and Bill Clinton. Two senators, who, although not of my party, died in discharging their duty.

    The crowd follows the president's words with tears and supportive cries.

    -I know how each of you feels. I am not in mourning alone for America, I mourn my beloved wife, for my little daughter who will grow up without a mother. I must end my speech here. But carry this truth into your hearts, the United States of America will never be broken. God bless the America! God bless you all! God Bless our heroes!



    Hours later, Trump made a call. In a direct connection with Moscow, the President said:

    -Boris, I'm calling you just to tell what I'll do.

    For a few minutes the two men talked.

    -I can not support him Donald, at least not officially. Russia will do nothing, we will not regard this as a threat.

    -It's all I needed to hear.

    -And Donald, I'm grieving for you.

    -The things will be better in a few hours, believe me!

    The President was excited. A poll released a few hours ago indicated his popularity was the highest since his divorce. And he was sure that after tonight his popularity would increase even more.

    He would avenge all Americans today. And they would reward you. If all went well, his popularity would reach 70%, his party would receive a super-majority in 1994 and he would revoke the 22nd Amendment before 1996.

    -The moment has come. Call the General. I have orders. Nuclear orders.



    The world has never been so shocked by news. If the attack and fall of the Trump Tower and the deaths of the Senators had shocked the world, this time the world was horrified.

    Millions of dead. Billions of angry and hateful people. It's all a man's fault.

    Some tried to defend: he was upset by mourning. But most were not convinced. Some even called it genocidal.

    Donald Trump had ordered two nuclear bombs to be dropped. One on Baghdad and one on Tehran. The number of deaths had been countless.

    The world was still trying to figure out what had happened.



    -President, you made the worst decision of his life.

    -This will save our popularity Fuqua.

    -This will destroy YOUR popularity and end my chances in 1996.

    -What do you mean by my popularity?

    -I'm jumping from that boat. This boat is sinking. America will know that I have never had anything to do with this decision or its recent madness. I am the only sane person in this government.
