Beware the Ides of March.

That's today. Today is The Ides of March.

Some are saying today is a day that could change the future of the nation.

I always heard Beware the Ides of March when growing up.

No idea, really, what it was.

A historical day.

I agree with you.

Today is going to open a lot of people’s eyes to the fact that we’ve had enough of the liberal agenda.

Time to take our country back. Join or die.

It’s the notorious date of the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC.

Go Trump Go!-)

I had an uncle who jumped into Normandy on D-Day. He passed away on March 15, 1977. A man of great distinction stilled greatly missed by those in the family who knew him.

Yes, today is a day that could change the future of the nation.
Exactly like every other day.
9/11/01 was too, and it did.

Caesar is the American Conservative.

Brutus is the GOP Establishment.

The Ides of March is every day.

I didn’t know what it was when I was a kid.

I heard Beware the “Ides of March” and it was cool, ominous.

But didn’t know what it was.

Of course later I learned what it was.

It still sticks with me as an almost magical iconic phrase and day.
