Presidents like Lincoln and FDR are glorified nowadays, but in their time did very controversial things (Lincoln suspending habeas corpus, FDR's Executive Order 9066). What will be Trump's legacy?






What do you think?

There are very few possible futures in which history / historians look back favorably on Donald Trump.

But they won't be forgotten.

Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

I think future children will study Trump as an example of the worst potential of this country and how to avoid it happening again.

The only thing that could vindicate trump would be Mexico invading the U.S or some off the wall type shit like that. Even then all his positions can be attributed to pandering to his base.

It takes a lot to beat out Nixon as the worst modern era President, but somehow Trump did it (by a lot.)

Nobody will remember him 100 years from now. Nobody thinks or probably even knows who was the president during the Great Depression.

I mean, he's been making history for YEARS, so I feel we'll remember him.

He's the first president that went from Reality TV Show star to President, so that'll be noteworthy.

Also, he get royalties for every time someone says "You're fired" so that'll be a fun trivia fact.

I think about the fact that the only thing high school history class teaches about Warren G Harding is the Teapot Dome scandal.

Shit like that has happened 50 times over during this administration.

Also, the ways in which everything is on video now means that at the very least people in the future will have a clearer image of this era than we do of... Basically any president pre-FDR

Second-worst president to date. Only James Buchannon will probably be seen as worse, and then only because he allowed a civil war to start (not that Trump hasn't tried).

He will be remembered as the Kroger Brand Adolf Hitler, a total laughing stock and forever an example of why having lots of money doesnt mean you are intelligent.

When people discuss future global pandemics, and their impacts, they will reference Trump's America to just how bad it can get without strong leadership in times of crisis.
