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

No idea, really, what it was.

A historical day.

the Ides of March is best known as the date on which Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC.

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.

It’s also Super-Duper Trump Tuesday:-)

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.

The Ides of March was the day the Roman Senate betrayed Julius Caesar and stabbed him in the back (literally).
