    Or… Once he’s gone and things settle down for a bit, he’ll only be remembered through a couple of weird memes.

    I don’t trust the intelligence or rationality of people anymore to believe they’ll learn from this.

    No lol, he will be remembered for truly reflecting the vulgarity of the American empire. He’s making himself and the class he belongs to wealthy beyond measure. He isn’t traitorous to those he is actually beholden to.

    He will be like the boogeyman. Young girls will run away when they hear his name guarding themselves so he can’t grab them by the pussy from the shadows.

    For me, as a European, Trump genuinely isn’t a whole lot worse than the previous American presidents. Pretty much all of them were war criminals who actively worked to make Europe weak and divided.

    If anything, with Trump we’re getting closer to a federal Europe than ever before. I’m not necessarily saying I want a federal Europe. Regardless of that, USA worked tirelessly for decades to make sure it’s not formed. That’s one good argument in favor.

    Just in case, this isn’t meant to portray the current US president in any positive light. I highly doubt that’s even possible.

      You’re not wrong. Trump has absolutely committed treason but so did Nixon and Kissinger, in very much the same way. Not to mention the war crimes from Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton and W. Trump has absolutely raped a minor but he’s not the first president to have done so in our lifetimes. Rounding up immigrants and Brown American citizens and sending them to whoever will take them isn’t new either. That’s been happening since the 1930s.

      Trump is only unique in how brazen and open he is about it, and how many crimes he’s willing to commit at once.

      Indeed, I fully support the EU, I hope the UK will return and more countries that qualify enter the union. The USA views the EU as competition and they know we are a threat to their empire.

      Well y’all can have him. Right now that pedophile is putting hard working people out of work and letting the poorest among us miss meals all while he rounds up people with darker skin than him to make them disappear. I’m really much more concerned with the evil he is doing here at home than the federalization of Europe. Plank in your own eye and all that.

      For anyone outside the US, there’s barely any difference between Trump and your average US president. The only difference is that he says the quiet part loud sometimes.

    In service to a foreign enemy. Take your pills, you freak. He’s the end result of your own internal decay over decades.

    There are so many assumptions in here.

    1. America will be relevant in the future.
    2. Common people will talk about America or its history several generations down the line.
    3. No one worse will have come along and trumped what Trump does.

      Of course people will talk about American and its history several generations down the line, the same way we still talk about the Ottoman Empire.

      1. Assumes Trump’s and Republican actions won’t be whitewashed by the establishment and swept under the rug should we elect a Democrat/liberal.
      2. Assumes we don’t have an autocracy that prevents us from doing anything about it anyway.

      Most of our existing social and governmental structures are going to be radically upended in the next half century by climate change and AI.

      I expect Trump will be footnote in history and his memory will be utterly overshadowed by the coming changes. We are heading into those “interesting times” that the old Chinese proverb/curse warned us about.

    The way things are going in the future history will just be propaganda decided by the racist sexist pedofile billionaire tech bros and the AI they’ve programmed with their ignorance narcissism and bigotry.
