The US will return to somewhat more normal behavior after Trump. Years pass and the academics will have to make documentaries with interviews from this era. Otherwise future college students will not believe the size (30-40 million) of hard core Trump supporters. Trump was able to express what theu thought, but throwing in phrases that were code, like DEI. The reader of that future text book on politics (political histroy has little shelf space in bookstore, only ethnic and minority writers hava a section) will lose interest in 2 pages. You have to put in some terrible things that can be proven. Otherwise it all gets lumped as conspiracy. But somehere in 2026-2030 we will get a good many TV specials trying to explain it all. Even in documentary, Trump will be more easily explained as a media dependent "leader." He is nothing without his press conferences, which will start to lose meaning as the months drag on and on.
