Donald Trump (1946-2033) was the 45th President of the United States, serving from 2017 to 2025.
Presidency[]
Second Term (2021-2025)[]
Trump would win re-election to a second term, with a Democratic-majority Congress. Despite a divided government, Trump was still able to get goals done through Executive Orders, as a work around from Congress. This effectively increased the power of the Presidency, and some would argue its constitutionality.
His second term would be met with more turmoil than the first, as he failed to handle the Greater Recession and would see the officiating of a Second Cold War with China.
By retracting much of the military from South Korea in 2022, Trump caused the nuclearization of East Asia, with South Korea constructing its first nuke later that year, Japan in 2023, and Taiwan in 2025. As a result, tensions would increase dramatically amongst the nations of Eastern Asia.
