In a shocking turn of events, President Donald Trump today signed an Executive Order making the United States a hereditary monarchy, as of January 20, 2017. In the order, Donald Trump named Donald Trump as the first King, taking the name "Donald I." His successor will be his first-born son, unless that son dies first, in which case, his eldest daughter will become the next monarch.
Comment was sought for this article from current House members and Senators, but all had been arrested by the King's Guard, a newly formed quasi-military force made up of former Trump bodyguards and former mercenaries from Blackwater. Their current location is unknown. Apparently, Donald I will rule without any sort of legislature at all.
More, as additional details are available!

It is, as they say, completely made up of "Alternative Facts." Do not become alarmed. Do not reply with shock and horror. Satire is a form of expression that seeks to educate through exaggerated fictional accounts.

In addition, I, Donald I hereby annexes the territory of Canada as part of Trumpland. Opposition to this annexation will be answered with all of the military power of the Kingdom of Trumpland.
