U.S. — As the November presidential election continued to draw closer, prominent Democrats gave the American people a stern warning about the prospect of a terrifying fascist state where government shrinks and people can afford groceries.
The potential future, which Democrats pleaded with voters to avoid by defeating Donald Trump, would plunge the nation into a hellish wasteland of less crime, cheaper gas, and lower real estate prices.
"An unspeakable, horrifying hellscape," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a sobering statement to the media. "A darkened world once thought to be unimaginable, where everyone can find a job, food is less expensive, the federal government stops invading every aspect of your lives, there are no foreign wars, and everyone lives in peace and prosperity. I could go on, but there may be younger viewers watching."
Other Democratic leaders agreed that the result of another Trump presidency would be too terrible for the country to survive. "Nothing you can think of would be more hideous," said Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. "The idea that we would return to the dark, sorrowful days of reduced illegal immigration, low taxes, global peace, and less inflation isn't something we want to toy with. America, you have been warned."
Democrat lawmakers stated the only way to keep the nation from falling into a dark pit of safety, security, and groceries that don't cost 2 weeks' worth of pay was to re-elect Joe Biden in November.
At publishing time, Democrats also stressed how important it was to make sure voters knew that putting Trump back in the White House would almost guarantee World War 3 would not take place as planned.
