It has always struck me that the people expressing the same sentiment that you just did put far more energy into it than the "fanatics, butt-kissers, and followers of his cult of personality"; to the point that you'd bother the "people in my private life (with legal documents, news clippings, timelines...)". It reminds me of the tech journalists who declared bitcoin dead in 2013, and how they'd get more venomous in their attacks year after year, presumably due to some kind deranged ego shielding.
