(356 posts)All these old timey racist and sexist things he says can only mean one thing....Donald is from 1937 and he met a guy who knew the secret of time travel. He then got people to invest in the building of the device, invested the bare minimum to build it, killed a bunch of cute puppies, kittens, and minority infants testing it....then he tried sending a black adult forward in time on the first successful test.
When the guy came back telling of a time when a POC was POTUS, Donald knew what he had to do....make sure that this never happened AGAIN! So he put the money from his investors in the bank (he had most of it left over. He built cheap and the machine would have been a success the first time if he had used steel screws on the shimstock canuter valves instead of having an unpaid orphan carve wooden dowels by hand with a piece of flint from a piece of wood Donald became enraged at when he found it on his lawn. But hey...he saved 3 dollars! You could buy a lot with 3 dollars back then!) He hopped in that machine and came forward several times, establishing a false history and making sure that he was in the news on each visit to make it look good.
And now here we are.
I am a crappy writer so if anyone wants to take this premise and run with it go ahead. I would be delighted with a good short story with Trump as a racist time traveler. Most stories assume the good guys make the initial breakthrough and then a villain misuses it. Heck, make the inventor an asshole too.
Oh I almost forgot...he never reimbursed his investors. Though he could have easily done so with gold, he reasoned that by 2016 all of them would be dead.
