  1. Years Trump serves as president (before being impeached, outvoted, dying in office after suspending the constitution and ruling for 25 years, etc)
  2. Years until a Trump executive order is struck down as unconstitutional
  3. Number of seats gained/lost by the GOP in 2018 midterm elections
  4. Number of electoral votes the GOP candidate gets in 2020
  5. Number of supreme court justices Trump replaces
  6. Months until Hillary is formally indicted/pardoned
  7. Date that UK formally leaves the EU
  8. %GDP damage caused by UK leaving the EU
  9. Years Theresa May serves as Prime Minister
  10. %age of the first round vote that Marine Le Pen gains in the first round of the French presidential elections
Bonuses: Names of the next non Trump, non May President/Prime Minister.

Feel like I can score the bolded and fudge the reds now, and it's a wrap.

The only problem is that the spreadsheet is on my old laptop. Not sure it works anymore.

And we've got to score:

- GOP candidate EC votes
- Supreme Court Justices

And throw out:
- Hillary's pardon
- GDP damage due to brexit
