he’ll be remembered

That's what he wants. To have more money than other people, and to be remembered.

In a way, that's one nice thing about how he's destroying America. America will be weakened so much that maybe soon some other country or some new country will rule this land, and the United States will be relegated to history books. And then, Trump will only be remembered by very specialized historians.

In China they have these statues of a corrupt official and his wife that killed a loyal general like 1000 years ago. People spit on those statues to show they haven't forgotten the betrayal. Maybe Americans can take a cue from that and always "remember" Trump in that way when he's gone.

Hear me out; we take all the statues of Confederate losers and whatever gaudy atrocious bullshit cheeto comes up with, set them all up in a swamp with catwalks placed close enough that people can spit, piss, and if so motivated and properly prepared, projectile vomit/shit on their memories.

I think I'm good.

He doesn't care about being remembered per se, just getting his ego stroked now. And all his shitty juvenile impulses fulfilled.

some other country

Yeah, because anyone who's attempting to control this country is doing such a great job in their own that it's something we should look forward to.

How do you think all this shit got started? Trump didn't really have the friends or influence domestically.
