Here's a random concept.

Assuming that time travel were possible, someone could easily use it for malevolent ends to wreak havoc on the present day.

I wouldn't be somewhat surprised if someone were to time travel to various points in time and round up some of history's most horrible world leaders and create the International League of Historical Villains.

Just think... the combined forces of Emperor Nero, King Henry the 8th, Louis the 16th, Napoleon Bontaparte, Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Oswald Mosley, Fidel Castro, Chairman Mao, Ho Chi Min, Kim Jong Il,
Mikhail Gorbachev, Mulmar Ghadaafi, Saddam Hussein, Ayatollah Kohmenhi,
And Donald Trump all joining forces to wreak havoc on the present day "Free World."

Sounds like a farfetched plot to a comic book or a science fiction novel, doesn't it?

Time travel hasn’t been invented...ever.
Otherwise we would’ve been visited by the future.

@Ghostinthemachine Time travel may not have been invented, but it HAS been imagined and even theorized.

The 19th century English novelist, H.G. Wells wrote "The Time Machine," which was first published in 1895.

In 1905, the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein published his theory of relativity, which decades later, was expanded upon by Stephen Hawking.

Also, throughout the mid to late 20th century, the concept of time travel became the topic of Television programs, such as Doctor Who (1963-1989) and films, such as Time after Time, (1979) The Final Countdown (1980), Time Bandits, (1981) Back to the Future (1985), Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989), Back to the Future: Part 2 (1989), and Back to the Future: Part 3 (1990).
@Sidewinder You can also add Looper and Interstellar to that list :)

@Ghostinthemachine And in addition to that, I could add Quantum Leap, and even The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.
