[1]ITTL, Arthur Bremer isn't put off by security and succeeds at killing Richard Nixon. This is catastrophic for many reasons, such as Agnew becoming president. It's closer, but still a landslide and entirely due to the image of Nixon. Edward Brooke is taken as VP, and pretty much everyone knows that Agnew is going to be a figurehead. Eventually he is found guilty of bribery and pressured to resign, leaving Edward Brooke as the first African-American president in a way he didn't exactly want
[2]Conspiracy theories by racists abound, and the lasting trauma of everything was not a good look. Agnew argued the whole thing was a coup against him. Reagan managed to take the nomination away from Brooke, but ultimately lost. However Brooke managed to find success in his post-presidency and would ultimately inspire the second black president, Jesse Jackson, to win in his own right

From the last page: literally every single event in Donald Trump's life would have to be different for him to ever, ever, in a hundred billion years, be pro-labor.

Without getting too PolChat here, it's entirely possible for a private businessman-turned-politician to support organized labor and get their support in return despite treating their own employees like a typical boss.

Background: with an English victory over the Hundred Years War where King Henry V whom reign began in 1413 and ended with his death in 1435, King Henry V became the King of France when his opponent of King Charles VI of France died on the 21 October 1422, the next day King Henry was crown King of France which ending the bloody war between the two countries, the alliance of the two Kingdoms didn’t last long, the Kingdom of France broke independence when the infighting of the English house York and Lancashire, France was watching on at the war of the roses, however it was King Henry IV whom broker a deal with the outcast King Louis XI, the son of the King who United the Kingdom ’if house Lancashire reclaim the throne of England once again, The Kingdom of France would have their King back’ King Henry wrote in a letter to Louis, on the fourth of March 1461 King Edward was crowned King of both England and France from the Son of the King who United the two Countries, with Edward promise Louis XI was crown King of France on the 22 July 1461, with the Kingdom of France restore the effect of this deal wouldn’t be know until many years later.

The English civil war was a bloody war, however the war saw the last monarch in Great Britain which was King Charles who was execution on the 30 January 1649, the date became a national holiday in modern Britain,some even call it independent day,however,not all share the same statement, with the monarchy gone, the United Kingdom became the commonwealth of Great Britain, Oliver Cromwell became the first Lord Protector of England,Scotland and Ireland, unfortunately with Oliver Cromwell untimely death in 1658 many wanted the monarchy back, Henry Cromwell the son of Oliver Cromwell became his father success of Lord Protector until his death in 1674, after Henry’s death many turned to his older brother Richard, Richard agree to became Lord Protector, before his death Richard didn’t want the Lord protector to be his family line of succession, just before his death he name Charles Townshend 2nd Viscount Townshend as his successor, Townshend became Lord Protector on 12 July 1712, Townshend as Lord Protecter didn’t last long, the effects of Townshend proves to be a positive one because in 1821 the first republic of Great Britain and Ireland was founded, Robert Walpole (who was Townshend brother in law) became the first Chancellor of Great Britain and Ireland on the 3 April 1821, the first republic is commonly known as the 'Walpole-Townshend era’ which was from 1721 until 1782, the last Chancellor of Great Britain and Ireland was Charles Watson – Wentworth, 2nd Marquess of Rockingham whose was Chancellor from 18 October 1780 – his death 1 July 1783.

The Second British Republic was formed after the American War of independence, where Britain lost and had to recognition America as independent, William Petty, 2nd Earl of Shelburne became Chancellor after Watson – Wentworth death, William Petty is commonly known as the first British President and the grandfather of modern Britain, after the war with the Americans Britain decision to reform the political system to be more democratic, the British model of the French republican having two rounds for the election and the party with the most votes wins, there are some that want the elections to be more like America,however, this is only a small majority of voices.

Whatever happened to the British monarchy?, quite simple, you can find the last of the royals in Canada, where King Charles III is the reigning monarch, is it unknown whether Canada will met with the same fate as Britain, in the meantime however, Canada loves the royals, if you were wondering how did the royals made it out of Britain, the lords and any royals loyalists were executive or exile from Britain, many found themselves in North America.

As the above quote implies, let's start with how LBJ is a) alive, and b) a Republican after serving his OTL term as a Democrat?
LBJ opts to never smoke in his life, which leads to better health.
LBJ goes back to run for the Senate in 1970 for Ralph Yarborough's seat in a republican wave year after the Vietnam war is lost and blame is put on the democratic administration, resulting in losses in the Senate. He then opts to pull a Cleveland and narrowly wins in a close election against Staebler.

LBJ goes back to run for the Senate in 1970 for Ralph Yarborough's seat in a republican wave year after the Vietnam war is lost and blame is put on the democratic administration, resulting in losses in the Senate. He then opts to pull a Cleveland and narrowly wins in a close election against Staebler.
So the former Democratic President, Mr. Great Society himself, switches parties opportunistically and people are just okay with this? That seems... unlikely, even if the Democratic Party has moved away from LBJ since then. (By comparison, imagine the reaction from Democrats if George W. Bush tried to re-enter electoral politics as a Democrat -- and he's actually pretty much broken from his old party.)
