In six months we'll have to use Google to remember who President Clinton ran against.

Yeah that's how insignificant and forgettable Trump will be when it comes to history, if anything he'll be remembered as a mediocre con man while President Clinton is making history.

Although I think everyone will want to forget. The republicans will be beyond ready to move on from Trump and the rest of us will be tired of hearing him sniffing and talking about "the blacks".

I, for one, will remember this election the rest of my life. There are going to be movies and Broadway plays about the ineptitude of this campaign. Political science majors will be studying this for a generation.

Unless of course, you mean the GOP. In which case you are dead on. By Jan. 1, it'll be Donald who? He was orange you say. I don't recall. He said what? I never heard that. But, Hillary's is ruining everything!

within six month, he has destroyed his brand and businesses, he will more than likely get divorced, and he will get humiliated on election day.

Donald Trump is going to become (really already is) a punchline and one that will stand the test of time.

He's infamous now. Bigly.

Here in Japan (where I live), he's well known and universally despised. And this from a populace that couldn't have named Romney, McCain, or Kerry at the height of their political popularity on a bet (many do know Sarah Palin, though...infamy goes a lot further I guess).

(most Japanese folks also couldn't name Al Gore on a bet, even though he was VP, nor Biden, nor Cheney)
