I barely think Trump will be remembered. In 600 years we’ll have a completely different economic/political system. I can’t image our quaint ideas of ‘nations’ lasting much longer. This economic/political system was a flash in the pan from just after the Napoleonic wars till about now. I’m not sure what will come soon, but we’ve been stuck with an antiquated system now for over 70years.
Without googling, can you tell me who Hideki Tojo is?
It’s not that hard of a question and a lot of people willing know him, but unlike with say Hitler or Jesus, I also think there’s a lot who isn’t recognise the name at all.
Ofc it’s probably not hard to guess the context here, but still. The point is about name recognition. I wonder how familiar the teenagers of today are with Reagan or Nixon. Clearly on a meme basis the names are still recognised. But in 100 years, after a half a dozen more Trumps?
Prolly less so.
Anyways I agree with the other guy that it’s completely possible if not likely history will have ignored Trump in 600 years time.
But I guess none of us will be around to see that. Although I wouldn’t be 100% sure of that either.

ever heard of Genghis Khan? How about King Solomon? Judas ring a bell? Pharaoh Akhenaten?
“But trump isn’t nearly as bad as half those people”
Just wait. The worst is yet to come.
How much do you know about Francis II, that last Holy Roman Emperor? A few people read about him, but he’s not that common of a name.
doesn’t matter if I know their claim to fame. it’s about name recognition. at least that’s all OP was asking for.
