What Trump Will Be Remembered For—Joe Biden

What Trump Donald, out-going President of the United States of America has different dimension and interpretation
OpenLife Nigeria reports that what Trump will be remembered for in his four years occupancy of the White House is being viewed and presented differently.
To the Democrats and Republicans, what Trump manifested in office are two dimensional poles.
As he vacates office tomorrow, January 20, President –Elect, Joe Biden says

‘He would be greatly disappointed in how we have chosen to conduct ourselves’

President Donald Trump will be gone tomorrow. What Trump will become, in pubic reckoning, after leaving office

For millions of people in America and around the world, the departure of a White House wannabe autocrat who spent four years living inside everybody’s head means the end of a long nightmare.

But Joe Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday will be a day of dispossession for millions more Americans who saw Trump as a lone leader who voiced their fear that the modern world scorns their religion, culture, livelihoods and patriotism.

When people look at Trump and say, “This is not America,” they are wrong. His presidency personified a gap between America’s liberal, urban, multiracial citizens and their White, rural, conservative counterparts. And his great sin as President was that he didn’t try to build common bonds and language between an internally estranged people. Instead, he exploited the divide.

These facts are indisputable: What Trump has destroyed is much. Millions of people’s faith in the US political system by refusing to accept his election defeat and inciting an insurrection against Congress was a spoiler. He inspired radical, far right White nationalists. He lied every day. His “beautiful health care plan” was a sick myth. He torched America’s global reputation. And he incessantly exploited his job to boost his business, reversing President John Kennedy’s admonition, “Ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country.”

Trump did often raise questions that conventional politicians dodged: Shouldn’t the US be tougher on an increasingly hostile China? When will someone actually help ghost towns in the Midwest and the South where industries died at the hands of elite free traders? Why don’t prosperous Europeans pay more for their own defense? What is the sense in sending heartland Americans to die in the Middle East?

But he never answered these questions. And for all Trump’s championing of “forgotten” Americans, his sole big legislative win was huge tax cuts for corporations and his rich cronies.

Trump mythologizes his skill as a builder, but he will be remembered for destruction. After losing the White House, the House and the Senate, being impeached twice and throwing tens of thousands of lives into the teeth of the pandemic, this one-termer has earned his inevitable historic ignominy as one of the worst US presidents, if not the worst.
