If we're talking about D.J. Trump, then I'm pretty sure we can expect at least some sighs of relief in many countries, but not from those in power. This guy is a nuisance for more than just the USA, because of the USA's geopolitical dominant position, and also because of the international networking between supremacist leaders and similar.

Agreed.
There was a famous case in France several years ago, around the freshly dead heinous monster named Jean-Marie Le Pen. His "orator talents" were praised after his death, both by dominant media and dominant politicians, including supposed to be ennemies with him and his legacy. Those who still publicly stood against him and his legacy were told to rospect the dead and were vilified. But as some members of communities he targeted said: "I will respect him in death like he respected us while alive."
The man was a white national-supremacist with ties to the OG nazis. Racist, imperialist, xenophobe, LGBT-phobe, redheaded-phobe(?), ... He very probably participated with enthousiasm in torture and other mass crimes from the french side during Algeria's independence war. (Also, colonialisation is a mass crime in itself.)
So yeah, fuck forced reverence. This guy was a hateful mass criminal, and his death didn't change this fact.
Somehow all of the above ? (Except I never had anything to do with Walmart. Wrong country.)
