And that cancels out everything he did before becoming President. Nobody remembers the successful early careers of men like James Buchanan or Herbert Hoover. They were both highly respected men - until they became President. And then their failures in the Presidency defined them. > > That’s what’s happened to Trump. A hundred years from now, he’ll still be remembered. But he’ll be remembered as a guy who failed as President. Yes. Wasn’t it Donald Jr. who spoke of how glum their election “victory” celebration was? Melania had tears, “and they weren’t tears of joy.” _ **Trump never wanted to win.** _ That’s the mind-boggling irony of this catastrophe. He hoped to come close of course and not be known as the buffoon that went down in a landslide. But he didn’t think the nightmare scenario had a chance of coming true. He and his family are trying to make the most of it, of course, scarfing up a few extra millions. (He even has WH staff pimping Ivanka’s apparel lines. :smack: ) Unfortunately, he _will_ want to win re-election. He doesn’t want to spend his final years as a disgraced laughing-stock _without the ability to pardon._ --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-is-melania-trumps-graffiti-jacket-aimed-at-i-really-dont-care-do-u/816545)._
