2028. A declining President Trump is watching the results of the US election that will choose his successor. The concerned Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff engages White-House-intern-cum-Chief-of-Staff Morgan to keep Trump occupied by developing his Presidential Library – one without books. This project reinvigorates Trump and fate hands him a chance to achieve the dictatorial status he craves… Will fate intervene again for the liberals? An uproarious farce about unintended consequences, the hand of fate, and how deep down we all would love to be a dictator.
