Major Events
The COVID Recession of 2020-2025: Presidents Clinton (2017-2021) and Trump (2021-2025; 2029) were unable to effectively handle the COVID-19 Pandemic on the economic level. President Whitmer (2025-2029) was able to get it under control with a government trifecta in 2025 and 2026.

Trump's Second Term: Trump was re-elected in 2028 and sworn in on January 20, 2029. He died a few months into his second term, resulting in Vice President Matthew Andrews to assume the office of President.

The New Recession of 2028-2033: Through executive orders, Trump dismantled parts of Obamacare, the Green New Deal, and other Democratic programs. After his death, President Andrews (2029-2033) is left with the economic crisis that this creates.

The Tusk Presidency: Considered a result of ultra-partisanship, Senator Reginald "Reggie" Tusk of North Carolina narrowly wins the election against incumbent President Andrews. The House and Senate go to the Democrats by noticeable margins, and Democratic policies are re-implemented with specific guidelines saying that they can only be repealed after one hundred years. The MEAD Act is forced through Congress by Democratic Congressman Alistair Durant of Texas, who becomes Speaker in 2035.
