Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman	comment	Sometimes writers of counterfactual stories decide to disregard plausibility in order to throw in their stories cameos by historical figures from our own timeline but in a totally different occupation. Usually this is done as something of an in-joke with the audience or the dimension-hopping character(s); seeing Adolf Hitler as a Starving Artist instead of the tyrannical dictator he was in real life would tickle anyone's funny bone. Adolf Hitler actually aspired to be an artist prior to getting into politics; he was an avid fan of Disney and was rejected (twice) by an art school. That said, the cameo doesn't need to have a root in history, but it's more fun if they do. After all, who doesn't appreciate a good Historical In-Joke? The Trope Namer is from Harry Turtledove's alternate history novel The Two Georges, where Richard Nixon is a successful used car salesman in the North American Union. That itself was a joke about a 1960 Democratic campaign poster, showing Nixon with a Kubrick Stare and the caption "Would YOU buy a used car from this man?" Funnily enough, Nixon's parents did own a gas station when he was growing up, so him going into the auto industry instead of politics isn't too implausible. Related to In Spite of a Nail. A subtrope of Allohistorical Allusion. Compare with Different World, Different Movies and Beethoven Was an Alien Spy. Contrast Alternate Universe Reed Richards Is Awesome.

They, and the headline, are talking about Robert Redford. No mention is made of what happened to the RR that actually did run for (and win) President in our timeline.

The butterflies are limited because the story takes place only ten years after that, but we get to see Lope de Vega as a soldier garrisoned in London, Diego Flores de ValdÃ©s (second in command of the Spanish Armada) as the commander in chief of the Spanish occupation forces, Thomas Phelippes as ValdÃ©s' secretary and a double agent working for the English resistance, petty criminals Nick Skeres and Ingram Frizer (and notable to us only as the killers of Christopher Marlowe, who is still alive in the book) as members of such resistance, Will Adams (of Shogun fame) as a sailor in the Netherlands, Robert Parsons as the Archbishop of Canterbury and a Cardinal, and the impoverished, exiled Catholic 6th Earl of Westmoreland as a rich, influential nobleman who is the main financer of William Shakespeare's theatre troupe.

Our hero, who goes by Aaron (he finds his real first name embarrassing), is head of security for the opening ceremonies of the world's first spaceport in 1964. Captain Burt Reynolds has returned from his triumphant landing on the moon, a victory for private enterprise (it was funded by Boeing instead of NASA); Nixon is finishing his first term as President after beating Kennedy in 1960; Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, and Buddy Holly are the reigning kings of rock-and-roll, and a struggling rock quintet from England are just beginning their first American tour; and Tommy Smothers is a Communist agitator who attempts to assassinate Nixon.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_25a6826e	comment	Reds!: A Revolutionary Timeline has Sean Hannity as a very patriotic and jingoistic writer about the history of the United American Socialist Republics. It also uses many prominent American politicians and activists as members of the communist regime. After his attempt at a career in politics never really manages to take off, Newt Gingrich instead throws himself in writing political fiction and science fiction. He eventually has a popular breakthrough as an author with a series of military techno-thrillers in the 1980s, and effectively becomes the timeline's version of Tom Clancy. One of the most dramatic examples is George S. Patton, who fought with distinction in the Second American Civil War... for the Socialists. In this alternate history, the USA entered the First World War three years earlier, fighting in some of the bloodiest engagements and taking roughly a million casualties. Patton returned home badly traumatised and very, very bitter. Nixon himself makes several appearances, and though the story hasn't examined that part of the timeline in depth yet, it is all but outright stated that he will one day become the Premier of the UASR. There are also several hints that during his time in office, he was just about as crooked as his real-life counterpart, and gains himself a legacy as one of the ultimate Dirty Communists.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_2754c6fb	comment	In the Timeline-191 series: A character is listening to a football broadcast narrated by a sportscaster named "Dutch". The character thinks "Dutch" could make anything sound interesting. "If anyone was a great communicator, he was the man." In How Few Remain (the first installment), Samuel Clemens is a journalist in San Francisco, having given up on novel writing as a way to earn a living. Also, Abraham Lincoln, who lost the 1864 presidential election as a consequence of losing the Civil War, becomes a socialist activist; in later books he is considered one of the pivotal figures in American socialism. Clemens and Reagan did at one point work respectively as a journalistnote He was a failed gold miner and steamboat pilot. and sportscasternote He called baseball, namely Chicago Cubs games for radio audiences in Iowa. When he became president, he was a member of the Verban Memorial Society, a bipartisan federal officeholders' Cubs fan club. In 2010, the Society inducted President and White Sox fan Barack Obama. in real life, though not in exactly the circumstances shown in TL-191. Lincoln is something of a borderline case, in that his activism is both a direct and somewhat plausible consequence of the divergence and that his alternate job was being dead. There's also "Ernie," who's still a writer, but he writes biographies, is considered a hack, never travelled to Spain (though he ponders if he should) and is even more depressed than the real-life analogue. All because he got his penis blown off in The Great War. In The Center Cannot Hold, set in the 1920s after the Central Powers win World War I, one character meets a Lieutenant-Colonel Heinz Guderian, who is accompanied by a very angry sergeant who keeps spouting off about Jews and Poles. Baseball never became America's pastime in the TL-191 series. However, Turtledove is a baseball fan, and from time to time you'll find classic baseball players appearing in the story as football players, factory workers, soldiers, etc.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_62234e01	comment	GURPS Alternate Earths has lots of this: In the first volume, there's Malcolm Little (Malcolm X) as VP of the rest-US in a world where the CSA successfully seceded. David Duke as POTUS in a world where The Nazis win World War II and the US become their fascist satellite. Jabir ibn Hayyan as a Roman chemist inventing mustard gas in 767. Swedish king Charles XII invading Britain. Roman emperor Heraclius founding a new empire in Africa after Constantinople falls. And Adolf Hitler ending up in an insane asylum painting more watercolors. The sequel had some more. Alissa Rosenbaum writing novels about heroic rail builders in Nationalist Republican Russia. Japanese admiral Hiyoshimaru fighting European pirates for the Ming emperors. St. Bernhard of Clairvaux and St. Dominic de Guzman converting still-pagan Scandinavia to a somewhat different Christianity. Ibn Sina inventing calculus in 1006. Jan Masaryk elected Archon of an Austrian empire turned republic. And finally, Otakar Przemysl kicking out the Mongolian oppressors from the Holy Roman Empire in Centrum. One of the most insane examples is Otto Skorzeny, head of the elite cross-time strike force ISWAT. In his home parallel (the one with Jan Masaryk), he was a freedom fighter for the Republican Alliance that emerged from the wreckage of the Austrian Empire. He's a firm believer in liberty and equality for everyone, and he absolutely hates Those Wacky Nazis. Especially other versions of himself. In GURPS Infinite Worlds: Britannica-6, a setting sourcebook using the same framework that describes an alternate Steampunk timeline stemming from a different history of the British royal family, one of the example characters is Charles Dickens, a journalist specializing in science and technology. "He wrote a few short stories, most concerning heroic engineers, but never found much money in it."

In 1978, Wonder Woman opines that the US has been going downhill ever since then. By that time, John F. Kennedy is President. His father Joseph P. Kennedy (who was seemingly dead by then as he was in reality) was concerned that being the first President to divorce and remarry while in office would be JFK's lasting contribution to history. His second wife is Marilyn Monroe, who goes by her real name Norma Jean Mortenson as First Lady. She once had an affair with the head of the Moscow Police. After the United Kingdom becomes a communist country, Tony Benn is seemingly a senior figure in its government.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_67a513b8	comment	The Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg mod to Hearts of Iron II does this a lot (because it's trying to avoid using the OTL historical figures): Josef Stalin is the minister of security for Georgia; Benito Mussolini is minister of transportation in the Socialist Republic of Italy; Adolf Hitler is dead and his wartime letters home (along with those of many other soldiers') has been published under the title Mein Kampf by Ernst RÃ¶hm, who for some reason wears a Charlie Chaplin-style mustache; Oswald Mosley is a leader of a radical left faction in Syndicalist Britain, which includes Eric Blair and a gay C. S. Lewis. Mussolini can subvert this trope - it is quite possible for him to end up as the self-described totalitarian leader of an Italian state. It just happens to be a far-left ('National Syndicalism') state rather than a far-right (Fascism) one. Especially since Mussolini started out as a leftist, then had a change of heart. Fascism in general is well known for being the exemplar of Pandering to the Base in terms of ideologies: it was whatever the public wanted it to be. But as the old (though false) saying goes, he made the trains run on time, therefore making him being minister of transportation a Historical In-Joke.

In 1961, Earl Warren (Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court in OTL) is elected president. His suicide in 1965 leads to VP Harold Stassen (he actually did run for president in 1948 in OTL) ascending to presidency.

The two-part episode "Moebius", in which the team travels back in time 5,000 years for the first 20 minutes of the episode, and then the story follows their counterparts in the alternate timeline created. Despite a point of divergence 5,000 years back, all the main cast are clearly the same people, with Carter and Daniel in much more boring jobs. Averted with Teal'c, who's still First Prime of Apophis. Zigzagged with O'Neil, who now runs a tour boat, but his pre-Stargate miltary career was implied to be unchanged. Also, Robert Kinsey is now President while Henry Hayes is Secretary of the Interior. And then of course there's the alternate reality seen in season 10 where Hank Landry is the President instead of being head of Stargate Command. Rodney McKay, meanwhile, went into the private sector and became a billionaire. In Stargate: Continuum, the alternate Carter had joined NASA, and died heroically in a space accident. Which makes a little more sense than her working a minor desk job at the Pentagon, given her talents and family connections. Before he found out about the Stargate Program, her father had offered to get her into the astronaut corps. The Stargate Atlantis episode "Vegas" featured an alternate reality where Sheppard left the Air Force after the incident in Afghanistan and ended up as a cop in Vegas. Also, McKay appears to be a typical government bureaucrat, in addition to his scientific genius. He's also much more confident in his interactions with people.

Peter Parker is a normal teenager, Tony Stark and Norman Osborn compete for a government's contract for their Powered Armor projects (codenamed Iron Man and The Juggernaut respectively), Matt Murdock is just a blind lawyer, Eric Magnus and Charles Xavier are senators, Stephen Strange is a stage magician and Bruce Banner is in an insane asylum. The only one who has any sort of extraordinary life is Logan, caught in political intrigue, and the protagonist of the story, who has visions of everybody's counterparts from the mainstream Marvel Universe because he is The Watcher's counterpart in that universe.

Richard Nixon is the rich and successful owner of a chain of used car stores (not surprising considering his skill at diplomacy and negotiation). The novel, set in 1990, also features Sir Martin Luther King Jr. as the Governor-General of the North American Union, and John F. Kennedy as the editor of a pro-independence newspaper. Andrew Jackson served as Governor-General in the 1830s and oversaw the abolition of slavery in the North American Union.

He's depicted as a singularly bad guy, probably worse than the vampires themselves. Eventually we learn that although he's in the German army, he was born in Austria, and he thinks that swastikas are really cool, and he is probably considering shaving off the tips of his mustache. Ultimately, he is torn apart by vampire nuns and never gets to see his dream come to fruition, in what is perhaps the only way Baltimore's Crapsack World is better than ours. A rare case where this trope is played deadly serious.

The story climaxes with the invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944, but by this point, the timeline has been polluted so much that France and Germany are allies against the landing forces (Who the landing forces are is never specified, though they do speak English). In this reality Adolf Hitler never rose above the rank of corporal and is serving as the driver to the Colonel that is actually relevant to the scene. One character starts to kill him anyway because... well, because he is Hitler, and winds up doing so (while in Hork-Bajir morph with a blade to Hitler's throat, he's hit by a bullet, causing his arm to move) while still debating it. Whether it was accidental or not is left ambiguous.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_985d0d05	comment	THE MONUMENT MYTHOS, given that it takes place in an alternate universe, has several examples: The sculpter of the Statue of Freedom, Thomas Crawford, put his own (and later his own daughter's) remains inside the statue in order to control it as a way to exact his revenge on America. James Dean, instead of dying in car crash, became the 37th president of the US instead of Nixon. John D. Rockerfeller briefly worked in the oil industry before becoming president of the US and never was an oil tycoon. Though after what happened, he wished he was. Walt Disney apparently found his purpose driving an ambulance during World War I, as one of the best hospitals in America is the Walt Disney Medical Center. Al Gore and Hillary Clinton won the 2000 and 2020 presidential elections. The most significant change is undoubtedly George Washington's role. While he still serves as a founding father for the United States, he became an entity living in Earth's core known as the "Horned Serpent" after climbing one of the Special Trees inside Wonderland. Eventually, he was cut into pieces by Maize Machines in order to serves as a power source for their computers, with his head being kept under control under the Statue of Liberty, which is used as a slaughterhouse to feed him. In the season 2 finale, he is responsible for transforming the entire universe into the Cornerworld after the Airforce One Angel accidentally destroys the Earth in their fight with Freedom. Ed Dwight managed to get into NASA and became the first man on the Moon. Two odd cases have appeared in the Nixonverse : while the Nixonverse versions of Frank Sinatra and Richard Nixon are the singer and politician we all know, their Deanverse counterparts are respectively the D-Day Knight and God. Unlike his real life counterpart, Elon Musk was able to successfully reach Mars and colonize it as American territory in 2023 during the third season. Rod Serling became a high-ranking FBI Agent, tasked by James Dean to track down Howard Melrose.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_9b44108b	comment	The New Deal Coalition Retained timeline is based on the divergence point that President Eisenhower's Chief of Staff Sherman Adams dies in a car crash right after his reelection. This affects how his administration is run going forward, which ripples outward and affects the rest of the world, resulting in numerous examples of this trope: After Eisenhower, you have Presidents Richard Nixon in 1960 (R), Nelson Rockefeller in 1963 (R), John F. Kennedy in 1964 (D), George Wallace in 1968 (D), Ronald Reagan in 1976 (R), Donald Rumsfeld in 1984 (R), Lee Iacocca in 1992 (D), Ted Bundy in 1996 (R), and James Meredith in 2001 (R). Charlton Heston becomes a Congressman. Ted Bundy becomes a County Prosecutor in Washington after framing another killer for his crimes. Later, he manages to be elected Governor and, as noted above, eventually President. Also, he marries Jennifer Aniston. Jim Jones becomes Mayor of San Francisco. Later, he serves as Chairman of the Progressive National Committee, and then Governor of California. Charles Manson attempts to assassinate Martin Luther King Jr. Barack Obama Sr. becomes President of Kenya. He later gains custody of his son after his mother and stepfather die in a car crash; Barack Jr. goes on to serve as personal aide to his father's ally Idi Amin and eventually succeeding his father as President. Prince Charles marries Julie Nixon instead of Diana Spencer and becomes King of Britain in the '70s. Jane Fonda is tried and executed for treason after she travels to North Vietnam and speaks in their favor, condemning the American war effort. Bobby Kennedy becomes a Supreme Court Justice. Leslie Nielsen becomes Prime Minister of Canada. John Glenn becomes Governor of Ohio. Antonin Scalia becomes Governor of Texas, and later a Senator. Unlike reality, Robert Bork's nomination for the Supreme Court is confirmed, and he ends up as Chief Justice. Henry Kissinger becomes Director of the CIA. Dick Cheney serves as Secretary of State until a near-fatal heart attack causes him to resign. He is then replaced by John Danforth. Instead of Bill Clinton, Hillary Rodham marries John Heinz, who in turn becomes Governor of Pennsylvania. Clinton, meanwhile, marries Maria Shriver and eventually becomes the US's ambassador to the UN. Mitch McConnell acts as President Rumsfeld's Chief of Staff. Colin Powell is appointed commander of NATO forces in Europe. Enrico Berlinguer's disagreement with hardline Stalinist thought leads to him splitting from the Italian Communists and forming a more center-left workers' party, which partakes in an anti-Communist coalition. In this capacity, he serves as Minister of Justice, and later Prime Minister. Gerhard Frey moves away from Neo-Nazi thought to more mainstream right-wing politics, and ultimately becomes Chancellor of Germany, a position from where he engineers the restoration of the Kaiser as a constitutional monarch. Georg Friedrich is chosen to be the first to hold this title. As a child, Narendra Modi's family flee India as refugees after a war with Pakistan, and end up in the US. He still goes into politics, though, and ends up as a Representative from Texas. Mishima Yukio, while embracing nationalism as in OTL, never attempts the infamous failed coup but instead starts a populist political movement and successfully becomes the Japanese Prime Minister. Steve Bannon serves as a merchantman commander during World War III. John Hinckley composes the Academy Award-winning score for the movie about Bannon's exploits in the Atlantic during the war. Colin Mitchell becomes Prime Minister of Britain. And when he's killed during the Second Blitz, Winston Churchill the Younger is elected to replace him. Slobodan MiloÅ¡ević serves as a Warsaw Pact military commander during WWIII. Lech WaÅ‚Ä™sa's political policies lead to him being exiled from Poland by the communists after the hardliners retake command. He's then smuggled back into the country during the chaos of WWIII and forms a secret rebel army which eventually rises up to help liberate the country. Vladimir Zhirinovsky serves as Governor of the Irkutsk Oblast during WWIII and ends up seceding from the Soviet Union when it becomes clear they're losing. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn gets into Soviet politics during its reformation phase and eventually stages a coup at the end of WWIII, dissolving the Soviet Union and becoming President of the Free Russian Republic. Gennady Yanayev denounces the insane hardliners running the Soviet Union during WWIII and establishes a breakaway state in the Urals which becomes the last Soviet remnant after the USSR is dissolved. Donald Trump serves as President Bundy's Secretary of the Treasury, while Mitt Romney is his Secretary of State. Vladimir Putin still becomes President of a post-Soviet Russia, but stricter term limits than OTL mean that he's only in office for six years. Afterwards, he becomes Russia's ambassador to the UN, quickly being elected Secretary-General. Pablo Escobar abandons the drug trade during WWIII (correctly foreseeing that the government will crack down on the cartels as part of the homefront), enlists in the military, and becomes a war hero. He goes into politics post-war but is driven from the country before he can successfully get elected President. Bernie Sanders becomes Mayor of New York. Elon Musk becomes a guerrilla resistance leader in Entebbe Pact-occupied parts of South Africa during the Great Southern War. Steve Jobs goes into the field of privatizing space flight instead of personal computers. Andy Griffith becomes a senator. Howard Schnellenberger and Paul Ilyinsky both serve as Governor of Florida. Tom Clancy becomes a senator. Ruth Bader Ginsberg becomes a senator instead of a Supreme Court justice. Mariska Hargitay goes into politics after Law & Order wraps up, and succeeds Sanders as Mayor of NYC.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_9c33b8ab	comment	In one episode of Sliders, Nixon was a blood-sucking vampire. Literally. A Deleted Scene from the pilot mentioned that Ronald Reagan was the Mayor of San Francisco in 1995 and that he was best known as an actor for playing the first Howard "Mr. C" Cunningham in Happy Days. Given that it featured at least two or three parallel universes in every episode, these sorts of in-jokes were fairly frequent. For instance, in one universe Kurt Cobain is still alive in 1996 and has just released a Christmas album while Donny and Marie Osmond's latest album is described as "filthy". Throughout the series, many real-life people who never got to the White House are said to be president in the various universes including J. Edgar Hoover, Oliver North, Susan B. Anthony, Joycelyn Elders, Howard Stern, and Ed Wood, who was considered one of the greatest Presidents in US history in his universe. One of the more plausible alternate Presidents of the series was Adlai Stevenson in "The Return of Maggie Beckett". In the parallel universe featured in that episode, the Germans broke the Allied lines at the Battle of the Bulge in 1944 and World War II continued until 1947. Given that Eisenhower was disgraced because of this failure, Stevenson won the 1952 presidential election (which he lost to Eisenhower on Earth Prime) and revealed that the US government had made contact with aliens called the Reticulans at Roswell in 1947. In the first parallel universe that Quinn visits in "Pilot", John F. Kennedy is serving his ninth term as President in 1995 but does not intend to run for re-election in 1996. His First Lady is Marilyn Monroe. Elvis Presley is still alive and regularly performs at the Mirage in Las Vegas. In "Summer of Love", Snoop Hippie Dogg is a musician on a world where the counterculture movement took place in the 1990s instead of the 1960s. In "The Weaker Sex", Jane Pauley is the Pope on a world where the traditional gender roles are reversed. In "The King is Back", Michael Jackson is a rapper. He was a member of Public Enemy, left the band and later rejoined. In "The Good, the Bad and the Wealthy", Lyndon Johnson and George H. W. Bush are former Presidents of the Republic of Texas. In "Time Again and World", Julius and Ethel Rosenberg assassinated John F. Kennedy. In "Obsession", a young psychic had a vision of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln in 1865 and was able to prevent it. Lincoln was so impressed that he created the office of Prime Oracle and charged him with the responsibility of predicting natural and man-made disasters. In this world, John F. Kennedy died in 1995 at the age of 78. The attendees at his funeral included his brother Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. In "Greatfellas", the series' co-creator Tracy TormÃ©'s real-life father Mel TormÃ© is a country-western singer, a Bible thumper and a government informant. According to the younger TormÃ©, "everything he's not in this life." Whether he still has a son named Tracy in this world isn't mentioned. In "As Time Goes By", Ruth Bader Ginsburg is the Chief Justice of the United States rather than an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. In "The Prince of Slides", it is never stated outright but it is heavily implied that Thomas Jefferson was the one who established the American monarchy after the colonies achieved their independence from the British Empire and that he reigned as the first King of the United States with Sally Hemmings as his queen. The evidence for this is the recently deceased King Thomas and the fact that Danielle's title Duchess of Hemmingshire. In "Stoker", Janis Joplin is still alive in 1997 and a health nut while no one has ever heard of Bob Dylan. In "Prophets and Loss", no one has ever heard of Abraham Lincoln. The sliders' money is believed to be counterfeit as it bears his image. Similarly, Maggie has never heard of Thomas Jefferson, indicating that he either never existed or never became a major figure in the American Revolution on her world, which was seen in "The Exodus". In "World Killer", it is mentioned that Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart were never film stars in Maggie's world. In "Asylum", Charlton Heston is the President of California, which became an independent country after the Kromagg invasion, and is an advocate of gun control. (In reality, Heston supported the Gun Control Act 1968 before he became a gun advocate and President of the NRA so this version of him seemingly never changed his mind on the issue.) In the same episode, this trope is combined with Les Collaborateurs and Historical Villain Upgrade in the case of Margaret Thatcher. After the Kromaggs invaded, Thatcher collaborated with the Kromaggs when they invaded her Earth. She agreed to give them access to the oil reserves in the North Sea in exchange for leaving the United Kingdom alone. After the end of the Kromagg War, collaborators came to be known as "Thatchers." In "Net Worth", it is mentioned that Audrey Hepburn was a famous stage actress on Colin's world, which as previously seen in "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" is about 140-150 years behind Earth Prime. She was Colin's first crush. His parents had a photograph of her in their house. In "Way Out West", Ellie Starr mentions that her father fought with Norman Schwarzkopf at Gettysburg on a world which resembled the Wild West. On this world, the American Civil War seemingly happened about 140 years later than on Earth Prime. In "Roads Taken", Robert Dornan is the Governor of California, which is under siege by troops from the UN and Mexico. In "Revelations", Jackie Robinson was the first black man to be accepted as a saxophonist, which had previously been an all-white art form. He is the subject of the biography Bebop King: The Life of Jackie Robinson - The Greatest Saxophone Player This World Has Ever Seen.

Similar to Kennedy above, Jimmy Carter becomes a Secretary of State for Walter Mondale. Ray Kroc deciding to enter politics as well. Lee Harvey Oswald is remembered as the man who killed Che Guevara during the Cuban War. His actions become the subject of a best-seller titled Call Me By My Real Name: Confessions of a Fallen Hero.

Kevin Spacey becomes an electrician due to his family never moving to the West Coast and his father's death in 1965 from falling a row of stairs during a blackout. John McCain becomes an Admiral instead of going to politics, and while recovering on Hawaii meets and marries Ann Dunham, becoming Barack Obama's stepfather. Barack "Rocky" McCain thus grows up a Military Brat, becomes Chief of Staff to Vice-President James Meredith, and in 2008, is a Republican state senator in Montana. Donald Trump and George W. Bush are retired baseball players, and they even get into a brawl on the field at one point. Trump decides never to pursue a political career after the assassination of Iacocca, and instead decides to go into independent moviemaking with Tommy Wiseau. In addition, Trump's line of ex-wives include Sarah Palin and a member of the British royal family. Rudy Giuliani doesn't become mayor of New York. He instead becomes husband to the NY mayor: Mary-Anne Trump. Bernie Sanders is the CEO of the progressive-leaning Tumbleweed Magazine. Vladimir Putin, after being crippled by friendly fire from a fellow KGB officer during a riot, turns on the Russian government and becomes an outspoken community organizer, who is frequently interviewed by international news. Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of SpongeBob SquarePants IOTL, deciding to create a seafood restaurant chain called SpongeBobâ€™s Undersea Cuisine, which itself gets a tie-in animated series co-produced with Klasky-Csupo, called The SpongeBob Zone, running from 1997-2001. Timothy McVeigh is a computer programmer and left-wing activist responsible for launching Operation Lockjaw against the United States government. He also works for Commodore International and Microsoft. Al Gore becomes a famous documentary film director, looking at important topics like climate change. Bill Clinton becomes the Governor of Alaska from 1978 to 1986 and pursued an unsuccessful run for the presidential nomination for the Democratic Party. He later moved to California for a career as a lawyer and attempted to run for Congress in 2010 but the sexual pestering scandal puts an end to his political aspirations there. By the way, the person who beats him in the primary of his 2010 Congress run and goes on to become a House Representative? Monica Lewinsky. Joe Biden is elected to the Senate in 1984 after serving as Delaware's Governor from 1977 to 1985. Ever since his decades-long political career had ended in the Red Wave of 1996, Biden became a member of the liberal lobby group Centrist Circle and the Amtrak Board of Directors as well as serving as a part-time lecturer at the University of Delaware. After his MLB career had ended, Roberto Clemente serves as a Goodwill Ambassador under the Mondale administration as well as the chairman of the Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. Later, Clemente would become the first Black Hispanic Governor of Puerto Rico. Geert Wilders moved to the United States and becomes a political strategist for the Republican Party after failing to become a prominent actor in Hollywood. Estus Pirkle entered into politics first by becoming Governor of Mississippi and later running an unsuccessful presidential campaign in 1992 rather than remain an obscure preacher whose teachings would serve as the inspiration for the 1971 film If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do?. Herman Cain becomes the first black CEO of the National Restaurant Association but also becomes a chief executive for Burger Chef and KFC in addition to being elected to office as a GOP Senator from Georgia. James Rolfe is a prominent critic on OurVids who is the creator of "Paper-To-Screen Adaptations", a webseries that analyzes good and bad adaptations of popular media. He was also a writer that worked on the animated series The Defenders of Dynatron City and later became an actor as well as working with Paramount to develop a "movie about video games movies" with Crispin Glover. Doug Walker (The Nostalgia Critic in OTL) becomes an actor turned scriptwriter much like Rolfe. Dick Cheney served as Governor of New Mexico. Newt Gingrich was the Communications Director for the Denton Administration from 1981 to 1985. Larry Sanders becomes interim Prime Minister in 2015. Cory Booker becomes a professional dietician. Vladimir Nikolayev serves as President of Russia in The New '10s. Instead of becoming the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski instead becomes the pseudo-leader of an online anarchist/primitivist cult known as the Forest Fellowship. Eric Rudolph is a member of this group and gets arrested in 2014 for bombing a tech business. Jeff Bezos becomes Director of NASA. Justin Trudeau goes into acting instead of politics, though he does do some political activism. Both Rodger Bumpass and Bill Fagerbakke pursue different careers with the former becoming a film actor and director while the latter became a renowned linebacker for the Houston Oilers and the Minnesota Vikings (though he does still become an actor). Likewise, Tom Kenny is also a film actor, as is Maddie Blaustein. Matthew Cox becomes a hugely successful gunrunner under the alias "Tommy Gun Thompson", who after his arrest becomes famous for a tell-all autobiography that eventually gets a movie deal. Andrew Yang becomes Mayor of Columbus, Ohio.

Crowley is instructed by Hell to check out a struggling artist who is thought to have promise for the future. Crowley duly gets involved in the life of a hopeless dreamer with a sociopathic streak note not improved at all by Hell's intervention who has been rejected twice by a prestigious art school but who has an inflated opinion of a middling talent to paint. Ideas are duly implanted in the head of young Dolfi.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_ab4deac4	comment	Player Two Start, set in a world where Nintendo and Sony's plans to make the SNES-CD came to fruition, spotlights a number of famous figures who wind up having different career paths. Polly Klaas survives her kidnapping attempt, and the circumstances of how she did so (her would-be kidnapper tripped over her SNES-CD console, buying her father time to subdue him) earns her and her family 15 Minutes of Fame once Nintendo hears about her story. She becomes a minor Forrest Gump-esque figure over the years; she and her family move to Littleton, Colorado afterwards, where she's instrumental in causing the Columbine massacre to go out with a whimper, and in her adult life, she becomes a researcher of video games at Stanford. Related to the above, Dylan Klebold never gets involved in the Columbine plot due to Klaas' influence. Word of God is that, by 2015, he's a detective with the Denver Police Department. Jennifer Stigile, a voice actress in our world, here wins the first season of American Idol instead of Kelly Clarkson. Alex Hirsch, the creator of Fish Hooks and Gravity Falls in our world, instead becomes an indie game developer — together with his twin sister Ariel. Al Gore and Joe Lieberman are elected President and Vice President in 2000, that famous squeaker of a Presidential election going the other way instead. Furthermore, Gore does it facing off against Republican candidate John McCain instead of George W. Bush. Avril Lavigne, after suffering a bout of laryngitis during her childhood, takes up skateboarding while her voice recovers... and soon discovers that she's really, really good at it. By 2000, instead of becoming a pop star, she's become a professional skateboarder who's featured in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. In other words, she was a Sk8er Grrrl. In our world, Chris-chan is the creator of the infamously bad webcomic Sonichu. In this world, a Chris Chandler who never transitioned becomes a spree killer, responsible for its equivalent of Columbine (as noted above, the actual Columbine massacre wound up fizzling out in this world), most notably with how it reignites the debate over violent video games. Many details of Chris' life, including his "girl quest" and an alternate version of the Sonichu comic (which also features characters from a hit Nintendo franchise that never existed in our world), take on a far darker meaning in this version of events. Shonda Rhimes' Hollywood ambitions never bear fruit, and she instead becomes an English teacher at Manchester High School in the Richmond suburb of Midlothian, Virginia. One of her students is the aforementioned Chandler, whose increasingly rude, sexist, and all-around creepy behavior leads her to try (and fail) to report him. Sadly, she winds up as one of the 21 victims of the massacre. Christina Grimmie, who in our world enjoyed some minor fame as a singer and YouTube celebrity before being gunned down by a Loony Fan, is mentioned in passing as being one of the hosts of the relaunched version of GameTV, an MTV series about video games reminiscent of our world's X-Play, in 2017. Andrew Cunanan, in our world a Serial Killer who murdered five people (including, most infamously, fashion designer Gianni Versace) over the course of three months in 1997, instead becomes a spree killer, going on a shooting spree in Beverly Hills on July 31, 1997. Seven people are killed and nineteen are injured; among those wounded in the shooting is talk show host Jay Leno. It is mentioned in passing that, as of 2012, Drew Barrymore is the host of Late Night. Race car driver Ayrton Senna, having avoided the 1994 crash that killed him in our world, goes on to become the spokesman for the Gran Turismo series. An odd aversion: Michael Jordan never takes his infamous detour into playing baseball due to his father James never getting gunned down (the criminals who killed him in our world instead go after a truck full of video game consoles).

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_de567625	comment	The Fire Never Dies: Leon Trotsky (known ITTL by his birth name of Leon Bronstein) moves to the United States and joins the IWW, becoming the leader of the New York Committee of Public Safety and eventually a general in the American Red Army. Tom Clancy, Condoleeza Rice, Aaron Sorkin, and Matt Ward are the authors of some of the in-universe historical texts. Huey Long is arrested at the start of the Second American Revolution in 1917 as a suspected socialist sympathizer (on account of him being an attorney who specializes in worker's compensation cases). He and his fellow detainees are soon broken out of jail and join a Red partisan group. Many notable labor activists, such as Bill "Big Bill" Haywood, Vincent St. John, and William Trautmann, successfully run for political office. Others (also including Haywood) become military commanders in the Second American Revolution. Newt Gingrich never goes into politics and is instead a highly successful author of Alternate History.

To show how much influence a Q has on history, he calls forth "witnesses" from the past, including Commander Riker, a hippie from Woodstock, and Sir Isaac Newton, and reveals that Quinn was the one who dropped the famous apple on Newton's head. Q explains that had Quinn not done so, Newton would have died alone and forgotten in a Liverpool debtor's prison, a suspect in several prostitute murders.

They rescue Rip, but they suddenly find that Ray Palmer and Nate Heywood have lost their skills in science and history, instead becoming a heart surgeon and a yoga instructor. It turns out, that the film school was the same one that George Lucas attended, and the attack by the legion scared him so badly that he dropped out and became an insurance salesman. He was even awarded "Salesman of the Year" in 1977, 1980, and 1983. Without Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark, Ray and Nate never pursued their respective careers. Fortunately, the Legends are able to convince George to stay and restore their teammate's powers.

Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman / int_f5f64264	comment	There are a bunch in the Back in the USSA short stories by Kim Newman and Eugene Byrne. Al Capone as American Stalin, Kurt Vonnegut as the American Gorbachev, Trotsky's daughter is a commoner who marries the British Crown Prince. Lafayette Hubbard, Mitch Morrison, Charles Lindbergh and Joseph McCarthy appear as a propagandistic "troupe of war heroes" in the 1950s Communist America. Not to mention Aleister Crowley as American Rasputin! One story features Eliot Ness and Melvin Purvis meeting a homeless Texan named L.B. Johnson in the compartment of a train travelling to Nevada in 1937. One of his companions is a mute and seemingly insane tramp who wore a tiny bowler hat, "too big baggy pants" and "a too-small suit", carried a little walking stick and possessed a "sharp toothbrush moustache and wide, scary eyes" which made him look like Adolf Hitler. The Little Tramp's cultural niche is filled by the Russian character the Little Anarchist played by Lev Bronstein. Yul Brynner, Allen Konigsberg, and Roman Polański are all stars of the most popular Russian soap opera as their respective parents / grandparents never immigrated to Communist America. Grand Duchess Anastasia, the aunt of the Tsar, is still alive in 1972 and writes dozens of romantic novels. She's basically this world's Barbara Cartland. Raymond Massey is still an actor but never left his native Canada and is best known for playing American villains in British and Canadian war / propaganda films.
