    You know how long Caesar was dictator for life before he was assassinated? Less than a year.

    But the damage was done, and Rome had a civil war over whether it would go back to being a Republic like it had been or if it would have an autocratic ruler. Obviously, the latter won out.

    A lesson from history.

      Let’s not lump Trump in with Julius Caesar. Julius Caesar was a war hero and a capable leader who’s final crimes were giving out citizenship and housing.

      Trump’s final crimes will be giving all our state secrets to every other government in the world and obliterating our infrastructure.

      We have so many lessons from history to pull from right now that you would need multiple professors to explain them all and yet they were all ignored.
