Don't these grovelers realize that one day, somewhere, someplace, books will be written and movies made about the horrors of Trumpism, and America under Trump's rein? Those who brought it about and those who were COMPLICIT?

That they (like Hitler and Nazi Germany) will be reviled, rebuked and denounced - their names (and legacy) MUD in the annals of history?

Or do they figure the rest of the world will just rewrite and romanticize it all - spin it via some "Lost Cause" bullshit?
