13. Well let's say Trump isn't impeached, but loses in 2020

Let's also say that the next two years are like the first two. Embarrassments, but no wars and good economy. Then in 2020 Biden beats him, and serves two terms.

In 2028, Cruz is elected President. The following year he starts a war with Iran, many die, and the economy tanks. I'm pretty sure many would say that Cruz was worse. Perhaps rightfully so, perhaps not.
