One Year in the Future?

The Boston Globe has created a front page for their newspaper — one year in the future. It is a new world, where Donald Trump is the president, all illegal immigrants are being deported, the Dow has dropped 6000 in one month, the US military has been ordered to kill families of ISIS militants, and a trade war has broken out with China. It would be hilarious if it weren’t so frightening!

Along with the fake front page, they have published an editorial titled “The GOP must stop Trump” that explains their motivation for creating the page.

    I guess it’s too much to ask that they do a similar front page for President Cruz. It wouldn’t be quite as sexy — all pregnant women being forced to wear fetal monitors is not as sexy as a trade war with China.

    Actually, in their editorial they say the following about Cruz:

    Action doesn’t mean political chicanery or subterfuge. It doesn’t mean settling for an equally extreme — and perhaps more dangerous — nominee in Ted Cruz. If the party can muster the courage to reject its first-place finisher, rejecting the runner-up should be even easier.
