    It'd be fun to visit 1995 and ty to explain 2024 politics to people then.

    "So that guy who dropped out of the Democrats' 1988 primary campaign because of plagiarism has been president for a term and is completely senile."

    "Wow, that's awful. I hope no big global problems happened after 2020 that needed some proper leadership."

    "Yeah... anyway, he was too senile to run for a second term, and his VP ran instead on a platform of everything being fine and that genocide is actually OK."

    "Wait, what?"

    "Anyway his VP lost."

    "Because of the genocide thing, right?"

    "Well maybe. But mostly because a bad actor from NewsRadio endorsed the Republican."

    "Wait... who was the Republican?"

    "That sleazy New York real estate guy who's gone bankrupt a few times. He had a cameo in Home Alone 2. He really won over the rural demographic."

    "...What?"
