Can you write a sequel in which these trends reverse? Maybe one where nearly all Americans unite to fight a common enemy, such as actual, non-human aliens?
(Thinking here of George Orr's effective dreams in "The Lathe of Heaven.")
99.9% chance of prescience; 0.1% chance of reversable manifesting!

Wishing Trump many successes – in ways that benefit our nation and our allies, that is – no matter if at times he fumbles his way into them.

Definitely crucial to make that distinction!
The Admin's mass deportation program has ambitious goals. (Stephen Miller seeks 1 million deportations in 2025.) Thus, starting early-on, that program has been sweeping up lots of ordinary folks: non-criminal aliens.

I’m thinking about all the sons and daughters who stepped out of a dark cave into the light after the last breath passed, the people who held a dying parent’s hand on some cold night in the Paleolithic, the Roman reflecting on how his dad had taught him how to knead dough or plow a field.

It's unclear how many could work: at least some are disabled, in school, or retired.
