I know this is going to sound far-fetched, but if Queen Chrysalis is the villain and is dethroned at the end of the Season 6 finale (and from what we've seen, this is increasingly looking like the case), this provides a once in a lifetime opportunity for the changelings to embark on a new path for their system of government, when where they don't need a Queen bossing them around.

So they decide they're gonna elect a President to boss them around instead.

Sounds like a pretty boss idea, until the now EX-Queen Chrysalis, sitting in her cushy couch and looking over the new constitution with a magnifying glass, spots a specific clause stating ANYCHANGELING over a certain age is illegible to run for office, and gets a wonderful, Awful idea.

So, the very next day, the disgraced former Queen--now the size of the average changeling worker--appears in her old palace, now the Hive's highest rated hotel of which she is still the owner, where she has organized a large rally and attracted a media circus. After her daughter Pupa introduces her, Chrysalis descends the elevator to the song 'Rockin' in the Free World', decked out in a sparkling black suit under a long black winter coat and complete with a hole-riddled green tie

In a lengthy, self-indulgent and meandering 45-minute speech in which she lays out her nationalistic and populist platform (ranging from a strident anti-Equestria foreign policy to building a yuuuge wall to keep ponies out), Chrysalis announces to the crowd, 

"It seems like changelings are no afraid to speak the truth around here! Well I'm going to throw my old crown in and say I'll figure this thing out! Now I might not understand politics, or foreign or domestic policies, or... the law. Or basic... ideological... concepts. But dammit, I understand that Equestria screwing us over behind our backs, turning us into their puppet state and I'm gonna do something about it! So that is why, my changelings…I am officially running… for president of this new republic, and we are going to make our Hive great again!"

Chrysalis is one out of eleven candidates officially running for President of the Hive, current favorites being Changeling Democratic Alliance candidate (CDA), June Bug, and Hive Front candidate, General Hercules Beetle. Political pundits, both changeling and otherwise, have described this surprise move by the disgraced ex-Queen as "stupid", "moronic" and "are you bucking kidding me, bro?" A reaction from the Equestrian Royal Family is pending.

(I'll update this journal with further developments; feel free to add ideas. This is all just for fun.)

[Hive News Network Report]

Anchor Ant: "Support continues to grow for Madam Chrysalis' presidential campaign, with recent polls putting her as far ahead of her opponents as 39.5%. The former Queen and convicted war criminal who launched her campaign only a month ago has gained a large following based on her platform of aggressive, flag-waving ultra-nationalism and violent, borderline-genocidal xenophobia. She has recently unveiled her joint foreign and immigration policy, in which she described to best way to deal with both Equestria and the recent wave of pony immigrants... is to suck them all to death. We go live to Millipedopolis.”

[Millipedopolis, day. Chrysalis, now the size of a regular Changeling Worker is going around greeting large crowds of supporters and waving to them or the camera. She is wearing her long black coat and a a green cap emblazoned in black, 'MAKE THE HIVE GREAT AGAIN']

Changeling Field Reporter: Ant, we’re here in Millipedopolis, where Madam Chrysalis is travelling around the Hive, building support for her campaign, and--”[seeing Chrysalis approaching] “Oh, Madam Chrysalis, Chirper from HNN. You believe the issues with immigration and our relations with Equestria are easy to solve?”

Chrysalis: [talking into her own microphone] “Yes, Chriper. Suck them all to death. Let's make this Hive great again.” [cheers swell from her supporters]

Chirper: “And when you say "Suck them all to death," what are you actually suggesting be done?”

Chrysalis: “Oh, well, it’s simple. I'm suggesting we round them all up, pin them down, and suck the very souls out of they and their children’s screaming bodies. And naturally, after that, we’ll crack their skulls open and feed on the gooey treats inside.”

Chrysalis Supporter: [wearing a ‘SUCK ‘EM ALL TO DEATH!’ t-shirt] “Yeah, Suck ‘Em! Whooo!””

Chrysalis: [whipping up her crowd of supporters further] “And then, after we've sucked every last one of 'em to death, we build a big wall around the hive’s borders! And if anypony comes over the wall, we suck them to death too! And then we suck to death all the--”

[Anchor Ant suddenly appears in a split screen, looking to and back from the offscreen control booth as he receives new information]

Anchor Ant: “I’m sorry to cut you off, Chirper, but at this moment, I am receiving word that a wall has already been built.” [to the control booth] “Is that right? Yes? Yes, I can now confirm that Equestria has already built a wall to keep us out.”

[The crowd starts to fall quiet and at this awkwardly revelation, in sharp contrast to Chrysalis, who is utterly furious]

Chrysalis: [apoplectic] “What do you mean they built a wall?! TH-THEY CAN’T BUILD A FUCKING WALL!!” [Throwing her mic and storming off] “OH SUCK THEM TO DEATH!!!”

Chrysalis as Donald Trump? I'd think of her more as Clinton really.
