As we all know by now, former President Trump has become future President Trump, or more precisely, President-elect Trump. Technically speaking, he's really not back yet and actually returns next January 20th barring any unforeseen circumstances, but his reelection is a comeback of historical proportions. Before I make my list of stories, I have to repeat something that appeared in a comment on YouTube, which Star Wars fans will appreciate. Here's what someone wrote:
2016 - A New Hope
2020 - The Empire Strikes Back
2024 - Return of the Jedi
