June, 2015, Donald Trump descends on a gold plated elevator in the Trump
Tower and announces he's a candidate for POTUS.

The nation and most of the world laughs. They figure it's just a
attention getter for "The Apprentice". Nobody takes him seriously.
Except Melania. She told him if he runs, he'd win.

The Republican debates begin. One by one Trump destroys the hopes and
dreams of 16 other "establishment" candidates, many considered to be
seasoned, well positioned and financed politicians. After a surprising
campaign and debate schedule, shockingly, Trump wins the nomination.

On to the general campaign against a candidate that virtually everyone
was 100% sure would win. That pesky Sanders was her primary concern, so
she made sure he wouldn't get in her way. After all, it *was* her turn,
her destiny, her deserved ascension to the throne. The $1B in raised
campaign funds would take care of any surprises.

Meanwhile Trump methodically derailed all the assumptions of her
winning. Put just enough cause to be concerned that Hillary/DNC funded
an ex-British spy to dig up dirt on him and apparently a FISA court
order was obtained to keep track of his activities.

Oh, and Hillary's email problems. Well, that's ok. Comey, along with
then AG Loretta Lynch will take care of that little problem with the
help of some BleachBit and a hammer. "Hmmmm... now how many "devices"
do I have?" she asks herself privately.

Election night. November 8th, 2016. Rachel Maddow's mood gradually
changes from excited and upbeat to gasping in horror as the results from
each state are called.

So, against all odds, against all polls and against all the
predetermined outcome in the minds of most ... Trump is elected POTUS.

Harry,

Don't you think the guy's a bit of an overachiever? :-)
