Sounds like a big indicator that he probably shouldn’t have monuments

But he is right for the first time in his life, that's an achievement.
A broken clock is right twice a day
Only a stopped clock is guaranteed to be right twice a day. A clock could run just a little bit slow or fast and it'll rarely be right.

that's actually unexpected awareness of reality
I honestly didn't think he was at all self-aware.
He's not. He's doing it because he thinks nobody will literally build monuments to him. Not because they think he's an asshole, but because he thinks no one BUT HIM will be able to do it.
He's a narcissist through and through. Taking things into his own hands because it's the only way he'll maintain power and control.

I don't know, but my 2 yaers old does this too: "you NEVER let me have chocolate!"
So in my head I see Trump also saying "NOBODY will ever build me a monument" while pouting, crossing his arms and wiggling his shoulders back and forth for emphasis.

I build one for him after my first cup of coffee and before I go to work, every day.

Not only nobody will build monuments for him, I genuinely hope the Dems have the balls to tear down every stupid little shit he did. And seizing Trump tower and turning it into rent controlled housing would be the cherry on top. Also, turn Mar-a-Lago into a public park and name it Biden Park
E. Jean Carol Park, to keep it non-political.
That’s genuinely way better.
Frankly, Biden should not be memorialized either. He and the idiot fucking brain trust that is the DNC/DCCC were the ones who gave away the Republic to these kleptocratic fascists. My fury at him and Harris and the rest of the party establishment that enabled the second orange regime to win a second stint is, shall we say, not small. They did like, what, 20-30% of things reasonably well, and then just didn’t fucking pay attention to anyone but their fucking consultants for everything else, and that entire class of MBA fuckwits is famously sycophantic and Duning-Kruger-esque.

I'd like to see him live just long enough to watch everything he did get undone.
Sadly, I don't I'll even live that long.,

But but oh my fuck there will be parties
Do effigies count as monuments?
I say we built mommets of him every year after his death and burn them as a reminder to never let a shitty fuck like him ever rise again.

A generation after the Civil War, the Daughters of the Confederacy blanketed the country, and especially the South, with monuments to the traitors who fought and died for slavery.
Yes, I expect we'll find both the money and the will to build monuments to this abrasive corrupt man, this shrill soulless void of ego and need, this vile abuser of women and children, this screeching embodiment of our worst qualities.

“The one thing they can’t tear down will be the East Wing. That is his lasting impact. That’s why he cares so deeply: legacy sh*t,” the source said.
Yeah, because this asshole already did it.

Instead, we'll ensure that we tear down the ones you tried to build and we'll prosecute your friends and family for the countless crimes they've committed.

The Donald J Trump Sewage Treatment Facility
As a matter of fact people will immediately tear down any he builds for himself when he's gone.

Fucking die, and then we will see what happens next.
The world needs to take that disgusting name off of buildings, burn that horrible name from history.
Not build more pieces of shit monuments to put an even bigger piece of shit name on it. FUCK.
An amazing display of astuteness from a person I believed was singularly a dumbfuck narcissist.
here I am agreeing with Trump, what a day!
When he's out of office, Congress should pass a law that it's illegal to name anything after Trump, EXCEPT: Sewage Treatment Plants.
Then people who live near the plants can say things like "WOW, Trump is especially stinky today. Trump stinks much worse than usual."

Here's two scenarios: One, the fascists are completely defeated and lose all power. That's actually the situation where Trump will definitely get monuments. Just like the losers of the Civil War made a point to build a bunch of monuments celebrating what huge losers they were, similar losers will do the same for Trump.
A second scenario is that the fascists win. A dictator takes over and we lose all of our freedoms. If this happens, it won't be Trump, or at least it won't be Trump for long because he's so fucking old. He likely wouldn't be able to put one of his loser sons in charge, since they simply don't have whatever it is that Trump has. Even if they tried, I suspect some other Republican would easily seize power from him.
So that first real dictator Republican will want to glorify himself. He'll want to pretend like he seized power legally. As a result, it's quite likely that he'll blame everything on Trump. He'll point at Trump's insurrection in 2021 as proof that Trump was a bad guy. And everything that he says about Trump will be the sincere truth, because Trump really is one of the biggest villains in American history.
So anyways, my prediction is that if Trump "wins" and starts true fascism in America, just like he said, nobody will build monuments for him. Trump will be an easy scapegoat because all you have to do is say exactly what he actually did.
I hope everyone rallys and destroys all things with trum on it for what he did to all of us.
we could build another flimsy fake gold statue of him and epstein holding hands to commemorate exactly who he was

That’s because he’s a shining example of the worst humanity has to offer.
Yeah, no shit. We know that's why you are singularly obsessed with doing that right now vs. doing the actual job for the American people.
Also: we cannot wait to tear down anything associated with you.
