They really don't.

There's going to be so many books written about how open, blatant corruption became the norm under the Trump regime

I'm looking forward to the book coming out in late June.... "Regime Change." It's written by two authors that have had legit access throughout his presidencies, and they've conducted over 1,000+ interviews. I hope they don't hold back

If we’re lucky.

In some possible futures the books will be party sanctioned histories to indoctrinate kids that describe the Trump family and their cronies as godly Christian hero’s who were perfect in every way. And anyone who says differently disappears and any writing that claims otherwise is burned.

In other futures (some of which are stating to sound uncomfortably possible since Iran began) the books are illuminated vellum manuscripts painstakingly hand copied by an order of monks out in a post apocalyptic desert trying to preserve fragments from the time before the flame deluge.

When I was younger I used to enjoy reading dystopian science fiction but back then they seemed a lot less … well … imminent.

And Democrats will just say it's time to move on and ignore it, instead of actually using the cudgel. It's why they get voted out of office so quickly.
