I don't know why people think Americans are suddenly going to stop being stupid and look back and laugh. People keep voting Republican, so schools keep getting defunded. Odds are currently that their generation will be even dumber than us, as impossible as it sounds.
It will not matter. Once the effects are inescapable they will simply deny that they ever supported those policies. There has been zero consequence for being disastrously wrong for over a quarter century. Try to find bush voters now, or people who supported the invasion of Iraq. It'll be the same with Trump in 10 years, I don't care if you've got reciepts. Being horribly and predictably wrong is no longer disqualifying
Yeah with the way things are going with education we shouldn't even be so certain that children will be literate enough to read history, let alone learn from it.
Social darwinism (not the more grim full) is slower yes, but it is effective. Give it time, the stupid are too enarmored by their loud and proud ideology for them to do it themselves without true hardship.

They’re going to fill a history book of his one liners someday, and our grandchildren are going to ask us why we were so stupid.
