How will trump be remembered?

Debates


I don’t need to write this myself. The Beeb has 4 experts giving their opinions. Here’s one of them:

Donald Trump will be remembered as the first president to be impeached twice. He fed the myth that the election was stolen, summoned his supporters to Washington to protest the certification of the Electoral College vote, told them that only through strength could they take back their country, and stood by as they stormed the US Capitol and interfered in the operation of constitutional government.

When historians write about his presidency, they will do so through the lens of the riot.
They will focus on Trump's tortured relationship with the alt-right, his atrocious handling of the deadly Charlottesville protest in 2017, the rise in violent right-wing extremism during his tenure in office, and the viral spread of malevolent conspiracy theories that he encouraged.

Matthew Continetti is a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, focusing on the development of the Republican Party and the American conservative movement.

Worst approval rating of his entire four years in office. He leaves in disgrace.

Good riddance.

Jonathan Pie rants on the trump legacy.
So spot on!

If you can’t be bothered watching it all (it is 12 minutes), although I seriously recommend you do, start at 9 minutes for the climax.
Enjoy!

It’s not all negative though.
Seth Meyers is far more positive than Pie on trump’s legacy:

Trump. A one-term, twice-impeached, two-time popular vote losing sociopathic narcissist who incited a failed insurrection based on the lie that the election was "stolen" despite losing about 60 court cases wherein his legal team of incompetent carnival barkers produced not a single shred of evidence to substantiate its conspiratorial fever dreams. Ruined businesses, rendered a superpower a laughingstock, and slithered away to Florida by dawn's early light with hardly anyone noticing. Banned from Twitter for life. VERY SAD.
