You have my attention...

A Democrat and member of the Kennedy family, he grew to national prominence in 2018 for giving the official response to President Donald Trump's State of the Union Address.

I feel like this is sarcasm of some sort and I love it.

This timeline is wonderful, I love it so far

"Of course Mr. President. I'm very happy you'll be watching. Yes, I've had some water beforehand. Yes, I prefer straws, too. That's a very...nice thing to say about my wife. Of course. Thank you, Mr. President. Talk to you soon. Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. Bye. Bye. Yes, Mr. President. Okay, Mr. President. I really -- yes, okay. Bye."

Jesus Fucking Christ the President-elect thought. How the fuck did Mueller not take that blabbering idiot down? His brain is Swiss cheese.

"Joe, you're on in five," an aide said to him.

Okay, Joe, you've got this. Your lips look fine. Good, actually. Okay. Showtime.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the 46th President of the United States, Joseph Patrick Kennedy III."

The crowd at TD Garden roared. Springsteen's "We Take Care of Our Own" played. He beamed the perfect Kennedy Smile out to the crowd.

Finally, he thought as he soaked it, we're back in the White House.

He stepped to the podium when the crowd finally started to calm down, but that only made them roar louder. He soaked it in for a few more moments.

"My fellow Americans..."

K this timeline is great but also if it's 2024 this is JPK III's reelection so why is this written like it's his first Presidential win?

Loving it, still

Thoughts:
- oh God if Trump had won reelection we would have had at least a year of President Pence
-"Take America Back!: How the Cotton Administration is Destroying President Kennedy’s Progress, And How to Stop It" sounds very much like the title of a book a liberal Ann Coulter would write, LOL
-you should do the fake atlas posts like from Feel the Franken. If you do can I please be a fake poster?

You said "Vice President Bush;" Haley is Cotton's VP IIRC

Also did Jewell Jones ever do anything important in MI? I would think he'd probably move up a bit, possibly being in Congress or even the US Senate, or the MI Governor's mansion.

How does he still look so fucking good? Tom briefly thought, before suppressing those feelings like always.

Oh boy oh my

As Aristophanes is quoted to have said in Plato's Symposium, "[gay men are] the only men who end up in government."

(Wonder what that means for Mike Pence...)

You are the best timeline writer on Atlas - of course we are.
