[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Rather, an insert made to look like a Globe front page from the year 2017, after Trump's theoretical election, is slated to run Sunday on page one of the newspaper's "Ideas" section.

The satirical insert will feature a series of imaginary Trump-related headlines, including "Deportations to Begin: President Trump calls for tripling of ICE force; riots continue," "Curfews extended in multiple cities," "Markets sink as trade war looms," "US soldiers refuse orders to kill ISIS families" and "New libel law targets 'absolute scum' in press."

The "front page" will also feature a story that refers to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie as Attorney General, and a report about Trump naming his dog after China's first lady.

The insert includes an editor's note that reads, "This is Donald Trump's America. What you read on this page is what might happen if the GOP front­runner can put his ideas into practice, his words into action."

"Many Americans might find this vision appealing, but the Globe's editorial board finds it deeply troubling," it added.

The Globe's "Ideas" editor explained Saturday that they're merely trying to start a conversation about what a Trump presidency would look like.
