does it?

Does it matter to you, right now?

Our "now" matters relative to the "now" of 20k years in the future in that what happens in our "now" plays a determining factor in whether the "now" of 20k years in the future will include history books and/or anyone to read them.

Do you think it will be any different for anyone alive today?

20,000 years' "today" is kinda the same thing as our "today" if you look at it the right way. It's a matter of perspective.

You think today, 20000 years ago resembled what is here today?

in 20,000 years from now, "now" will be 20,000 years now.

In 20000 years from now “now” will be 20000 years now

Proof before post

In 20,000 years, Trump and the like will not be in any history books. There won't even be any history books. For that matter, there won't be anybody to read them let alone write them (tapping out some grammatically mutilated lines on the touchscreen is not writing a history book). Heck, in 20 years what will be left of history books are those lost in obscure corners that didn't get used for fuel yet.

You know what else won't be around in 20,000 years? Us, today.
