Not just economically, but politically and socially as well.
History will judge him as not having made a single positive contribution to Humanity.
Essentially, he has no redeeming social values whatsoever.
However, the biggest negative judgement will be levied on all those Americans who voted for him again, again, and again. They are the ones who are truly to blame for what's happening now.

America, where has the love gone?

As the 40 something neighbor thought should happen... "We need to burn it down and start over". Us " horrible boomers" will only be here for the burn it down part, not the rebuild better. "Good luck and thanks for all the fish."

What proud American would turn his or her back on a chance to kick in some tax bucks to Krasnov and his Felonious GOP Flunkies can fart around on a Gourmet G.O.P. Luxury Golffe course.

He plays a nut and really is one deep down. Insane policies are his stock and trade. Carney and the rest of the world are so intellectually superior to this fool it is pathetic. The US Constitution is very weak regarding presidential authority. George Washington was generally honorable although he certainly did own slaves yet his very incomplete sense of honor has not carried on to our day.

The world is going to come out on top here although the arc of history is painfully slow
