Nazis, fascists and authoritarians in the past probably thought taking over the world would allow them to disseminate their own version of history, but they always end up losing in the end. The current fascists are so full of their own hubris and arrogance they don't know that despite their attempts at brainwashing and sanitizing US history to bend to their whims, they too eventually will fall into the dustpin of history along with the other garbage that came before them. They simply refuse to see the same fate will happen to them.
