History will not treat them kindly.
But we're talking about people who have a only a vague concept of history and are probably incapable of grasping how they themselves will be viewed by future historians.
And that defines them. "History? Future? People's opinions? Fuck that shit. I'm in charge. I am in control. I run things. I. I. I. -- Me!"
It you want to understand today's Republican Party, and the orange creature, reread that last paragraph.
