The tipping points are the anomalies though. I am not arguing that there is a 0% chance as already stated. 2020 certainly can be that point. Given the current political climate it certainly appears to be far more likely that it won't. These things obviously are not stuck on a track headed in one direction, but the track definitely has to start shifting or the direction reversed before we even start approaching the possibility of a full on paradigm shift. My contention is that shift or reversal hasn't even begun to take place yet as a result of a Trumps presidency and there has already been the loudest outrage over his presidency/the government in at least the last 40 years. Given that, the likelihood of some seminal event transpiring at this point, to even start moving the needle, let alone fundamentally changing how we decide to govern ourselves, in the next 2 years seems infinitesimally small. 50 years might just be 2*25, but the time it takes for these things to occur is real. I can't brush my teeth in 2 seconds but I can brush it in 50. I can finish brushing my teeth in 2 seconds if I'm already 48 seconds into it. I'm contending we're not 48 seconds into it. We just took the cap off the toothpaste.
