I kind of don’t think this, at least not that soon. It’s too perfect propaganda for the Democrats. Unlike someone like Bush, who came from a “respectable” political family, Trump is seen as an outsider. I honestly think they’ll keep pushing the foreign intervention angle and use Trump as an example of how everyone from outside the current establishment is a Russian/Iranian/Chinese asset. Democrats love running against him so instead of offering anything that will beat the next Republican, they’ll just say he or she is “the next Trump.” They’ll likely continue this long after its effective because they’re bad at politics and love to be annoying. I think this will especially be true if Kamala gets elected and completely fucks everything up.
if they do rehab him, it’ll be more like Reagan where it didn’t start until the 2010s, after he’s dead and a big chunk of people who know how bad he is are also dead or old enough that most younger people won’t take them seriously.
I could be wrong bc they love rehabbing right wingers but it just feels off right now.
Yeah, this will happen, at most, the second election cycle after Trump. I’d bet money on it. Even people on Hexbear frequently underestimate how much memory holing happens.
I agree I have been saying all along that Trump will be our generations Nixon. The rare bad president. Despite some attempts Nixon has never really be rehabilitated like Reagan or Bush.

they’ll call the next guy the “next trump”, but they’ll also say “even trump was better”.
and before you know it, they’ll have rehabilitated trump.
