“I’m sure you would prefer the man who saved Rome, but destroyed the republic, which is exactly what Trump would do to America.”

If we’re being historically honest, the Republic was long-dead by the time Caesar crossed the Rubicon. Sulla’s actions a generation prior had helped that demise, as did the Senate’s inbred corruption and it was despised by the general public, exactly like today.

Caesar was loved by the “voters” and despised by the thoroughly-corrupt, “1%” Senate. Just like Trump today.

I don’t see any of these candidates leading an army into battle and fighting on the front lines, much less being a strategic genius, do you?

These candidates? no, but one never knows where a radical leader will emerge willing to violently complete the destruction of the republic begun by politicians, and advanced by Trump.
