    Coup in Bolivia, assassination of Iranian general?

    His administration has also been extremely hostile towards Venezuela and has undermined the peace process in neighbouring Colombia. No new war, just a refusal to help an old one end.

    Alexa would be the First Lady.

    White House would be full of boxes.

    Donald J Trump is many things but thank god he is not a tech nerd. Bezo's can try to rebrand himself as a 'super villain' all he wants, he is a lame bald tech geek

    What's lame about him? He's a very successful businessman.

    Jeff Bezos has more power where he is then he would ever have as U.S president. Why would he ever consider the presidency?

    It would be just like having Bill Clinton back in the white house.

    Bezos and Trump are business men, neither would know anything about running a country. They should stick to running their business empires.

    Who was the last U.S president that knew anything about running a country?

    All past presidents knew at least a little. The present incumbent makes them all look good.

    Impossible to say really, but he comes across as being a decent fella, unsure if he'd be interested in changing the current monopolising position of major corporations though!

    ...would life be any different than it is under The Donald?

    Aside from hearing about him everyday, Trump taking power after Obama made absolutely no difference to my life. Just like 99% of people here. I'm willing to bet that it would be the same should Bezos move to DC.

    Stock market gains/loses in my pension fund will average out over the next few decades.

    Assuming you're not American, if I had control of your phone, PC and telly and I could somehow change the daily news to indicate Hillary won in 2016, you would not experience the slightest difference to your life.

    globally, some of all human critical needs, have become far more unstable, unpredictable, and frankly, just damn dangerous, since this administration was 'voted' in
