(25,232 posts)A normal person as president would think of legacy in terms of real accomplishments in service to the country.
Trump thinks of legacy as a self-created image of greatness. He is so obsessed with forcing others to accept his own version of reality that he would try to erase or alter facts from the historical record.
But he can never do that. Other nations and their media have accurate records of what he has done and of US politics. Other nations have recorded the information about his impeachments, insurrection, the crimes of the J6 attackers, his attempt to bribe Zelenskyy in a phone call, etc.
Trump wants absolute control of the world and to make all objective reality into his own subjective version of it. An impossibility but he will never admit to that.
For many generations after he dies the world will know what he really is.
