We made the Top #5 in 3 Kindle Fiction Categories: Political Thriller, Political and War. This work of speculative fiction, set in 2024, illustrates what life was like in the United States after Donald J. Trump won the 2016 Presidential Election, served two terms, built The Wall and set out to deport 15 million people. It is written as an oral history, like WWZ or books by Studs Terkel. Composed of interviews with a wide range of people of different professions and ages from around the world. They report both their own personal stories and effect on the globe of a Trump Presidency and Deportation. How would a Trump Presidency affect Economics, Trade, Military, International Relations, your day to day life as an American? While a work of speculative fiction, interviews were conducted with military officers, government officials, teachers, police officers and more in a quest for authenticity. Remember to vote November 8th 2016. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves. Sample Chapter :The Wall"There are those who say a border wall won't work. They just don't have the vision Donald Trump does. The Chinese built a Great Wall 5,000 years ago. You don't see any illegal Mexicans in China."Attributed to Michele Bachman, 2016, Secretary of State, 2017-2019Earl Williams, Age 55, Occupation: Border Patrol The Wall East of El Paso Segment 34B. It took me a while to get permission to interview the Border Patrol on the record. Earl tells me before we start that he drew the short straw so he is the one stuck with the interview. He starts out slow, but he is one of those people who just can’t hold a grudge, and before long he has opened up I’m a guard on the wall. The boredom is the most dangerous thing. Sure, they take pot shots at us now and again. So we have to wear the body armor any time we go up top. Between the range and the heat shimmers, no one other than Chris Kyle could hit anything out here. But thanks to the drug wars and good ol’ Operation Fast and Furious, they have plenty of rounds and plenty of guns to shoot ‘em with.The rules of engagement are pretty strict. Now, anyway. We can’t return fire without authorization, and that takes so long to go up and down the chain, that in my entire time on the wall, we’ve been cleared three times, and we actually fired once. The other two times, there was nothing left to shoot at by the time the paperwork cleared. Not the old days.Back in the day, the wall was weapons hot, and people shot at everything. Coyotes, snakes, bags blowing in the wind, trucks, dust devils. Lots of dust devils, if you could kill wind and sand, we’d done it by now. The heat also causes the wall joints to expand and contract, and those things can sound like live round. Especially in the fall and spring when the nights are cold and the days are hot. But then a few too many times, someone shot up some kids. They might have been too close to the wire or maybe they even shot a rock with a sling or slingshot and someone let fly with a ton of lead...Sample Chapter General Antonio Meza, age 55, Occupation: Ejercito Mexicano, 5th Army Group Ciudad JuarezThe Mexican army base in Ciudad Juarez is rather non-descript compared to the sprawling Fort Bliss just across the border.So it was that one of my officers was participating in training with your cavalry units at Fort Hood when they went on alert. He knew the secrecy did not bode well and when he realized there was no crisis going on that an American heavy cavalry unit with Abrams, Bradleys and Strykers needed to go on alert for, it registered. The Americans were going to the border. He flew back immediately with his hunch.Concentrating on the cartel wars, I had forgotten about Trump's plan to build a wall. But as I listened to my officer and then had my intelligence office look at the rhetoric coming from your capital,
