What if Senator Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin had become President of the United States?

Red baiting, hate mongering demagogue Joseph McCarthy was remarkably popular for a time, in the US. He played into the fear of the US population of the Soviet Union, Josef Stalin and Mao Zedong, and the fear of communism, and a thermonuclear world war in which the entire world would be destroyed, forever. As a brilliant, ruthless and amoral social manipulator, McCarthy showed an ability to manipulate the fear and xenophobia of the American people to acquire political power, to the point that even President Dwight D. Eisenhower himself was probably somewhat frightened of him, for a time, anyway. He attacked anyone and everyone as communists, or potential communists, or fellow travelers, and, for a time, this strategy proved highly effective in persuading the American people to support him. They were that angry, and, they were that frightened. Paranoia is a very powerful motivator. Eventually, particularly in attacking the military, McCarthy overplayed his hand politically, he was publicly censured, and died a few years later, of hepatitis. So, suppose, somehow, McCarthy himself had managed to become President of the United States? How would that have worked out? What would he have done, exactly? I could see attempts at using his paranoid attacks to acquire dictatorial power. To terrorize the judiciary, and the population as a whole, as was the case anyway, to some degree, during this "red scare". I could see deportations of suspected communists to prisons in fascist strongholds like Franco's Spain, with whom McCarthy, no doubt, would have established very close diplomatic relations, and be on the best of terms. Fascist Francisco Franco would, no doubt, have been a regular and honored guest at the President McCarthy White House. There would be regular threats of war, economic battles with nations who traded with the USSR, economic instability and turmoil because of these. A climate of extremism and fear would be created. At some point, the opposing Party would take over Congress, and they would impeach and remove him from office. Any thoughts?
