When I first did this, I didn't see the sign that said that the thread was over 4-6 months old, so I just assumed that I could, but I apologize.
1- It's mostly completed, I just need to figure out how to get it to the complete session.
2- Well, better than OTL for the most part I reckon. Anything in specific you are wondering?
Oh, ok.
Well, I was wondering about the state of Saturday Morning Cartoons and the state of the media/entertainment industry in general.
Well, sorta like OTL though there are still gonna be cartoons. Entertainment industry a bit better in handling things than OTL. Sorry if it's a bit vague, it's been a while.
So, aka, the entertainment industry still makes some damn sense?
That they don't get too greedy and start being unoriginal, ruining many of our beloved franchises and networks.
Hmmm... well, greed is part of the industry though butterflies do steer some of the worst problems and some changes do come to help
NOTES- The Seventh Party System
Sorry for not getting to this question sooner.
And the six was more referring to how many party systems we have, like we are on number 6 in OTL and number 7 is likely coming in several years, but will be f*cking rough time there.
ITTL, Number 7 will be established by the mid 2020s or so after large refoms are pushed in. One would be for the dissolution of electoral college and replacng the US voting system with either instant runoff voting or STAR voting becoming the replacement for it. Another would be the implementation of term limits on Reps, Senators, and Justices.
I could see this very much being in Sanders' 2nd term when they would get eough governor support and so on to implement on all levels. By 2020, I imagine the Progressives have firmly caught the Democrat party and part of a coalition to force the two end as the old guard would be fighting tooth and nail, if they haven't retired. By 2022, it's p[retty much the beginning of the transitional phase to the new system. By the late 2020s, smoke will clear and things settle.
With the term limits and so on, this makes it open season and with the generation gap, we could see young politicians flocking to new parties and making them the big ones. Here would be the like new major political parties by say 2030. Note, all of these exist in OTL as well, so look them up for more info:
The Big Three
American Solidarity Party- A Christian democratic party, this would become the new main party for various political conservatives. They would function very much like plenty of Christian democratic parties around the world, especially in Europe, though likely to be influenced by Agrarianism and modern American romanticism. Also becoming increasingly aligned with the mainstream Protestant churches instead of the evangelicals. Center-right.
The Unity Party- A centralist party and where alot of the heirs of the old guard and the like fall into. Very much in a way kinda like the moderates of old and try to put themselves up as kind of middle path to take. Probably won't be that popular for a while though still pretty good in purple states. Would also likely absorb the Reform Party in the process. Center.
Justice Party- The new major party for those in the center-left to left, would be a social democratic party and would be inspired by alot of the values and pursuits over of Bernie Sanders. AOC and "the Squad" and all the progressives are now chilling here. Probably the pretty popular ones for a bit of a while though still arguably not as ambitious as some may desire. Center-left.
Other Notable Parties
Green Party- The same old Green Party we all know and love. Still very much focused on the environment through they also tend to be syncretic over the political spectrum in how to get there. Still pretty leftist though and it still could have some rather questionable people at times. Home to center and leftist survivalists. Green.
Freedom Socialist Party- Where alot of the more hard lefties are going. Talking about the people who would wanna resurrect Project Cybersyn, make worker co-ops and the like mandatory along with plenty of other rather ambitious ideas that would intimidate more than a fair bit of politicians. Likely where alot of the leftist gun enthusiasts and the like hand around with. Having increasingly close ties with the US Transhumanist Party. Far-left.
Pirate Party- Part of the global Pirate movement and likely still be around. Increasingly affected by memers with a hackvisit streak. Still around. Pirate politics.
Constitution Party- Yes, they are still around unfortunately though not as crazy as OTL if for pragmatic reasons. Got the scraps and leftovers from thsoe who weren't allowed into the Unity Party. Right.
Libretarian Party- Somehow still around despite being viewed as much of a relic as the other two were. More left-libretarian now than OTL and has become the de-facto home of old school anarchists since no one else would take them. Center/Center-left libretarian.

Yeah, a bit but I’m still not well-versed in internet celeberties and would also like people to be a bit more involved with “America’s Funniest President”.
Ron DeSantis: Would probably be still be a House Rep, but lose either in 2014 or in 2016. Would not become Governor and likely go back to the Navy.
Majorine Taylor Green: Never enter politics, would probaly still failing at running business and the issues would likely lead to a pretty mediocre life.
Nikki Haley: Become one-time governor of South Carolina and then retire from politics.
Marco Rubio: Still become Senator in 2011, but lose reelection in 2017, likely retire from politics. Probably go back to professorship.
Greg Abbot: Lose position of Attorney General at support and lose Governor election. Retire from politics afterwards, go back to private legal work.
Charlie Baker: Who? If Charles Duane Baker Jr, probably keep being CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare.
Andrew Cuomo: Would still be governor, but lose in 2018 to a progressive challenger. May or may not still do the conduct of sexual harassment,
Gretchen Whitmer: Likely still become Governor of Michigan.
Lori Lightfoot: Unsure, may stll become Mayor of Chicago
Eric Adams: Remain a police captain, not become mayor.
Cool! What about these people?

Hey Count, I know this in an old timeline and all, but what percentage of green/renewable energy does the United States use as of 2020? Over 50%?
Unsure... modestly more than OTL, but it will likely begin growing more and more compared to OTL as more time goes by
