Republican Royals

In the summer of 1968, George W Bush [edit] was flown to Washington and set up on a date with Tricia Nixon by her father. In OTL it was the source of jokes for years to come, but suppose they hit it off - both were 22, she was only a few months older than he was. What happens, if anything?

George Herbert Walker Bush was born on June 12, 1924. In the summer of 1968, George H W Bush was 44 years old.

When you’re a 44 year old man, dating a 22 year old woman is more short term fun than long term.
 
I thought this thread would be asking about the possibility of one of the members of the British royal family advocating for a republic in their country.

George H.W. Bush was already 44 years old. Do you mean George W. Bush? And Tricia Nixon is quiet close of GWB's age.

I thought it was going to about Nixon's efforts to set Tricia up with Prince Charles actually going somewhere...
 
If things are still going beside GWB + TN marriage Tricia might be relucant return to White House after her father's scandal. So perhaps no GWB's presidency. Not sure if there is even GWB's governorship.

So perhaps Ann Richards is elected next term as governor of Texas and McCain is elected as president in 2000.
