2 days agoI thought of that too, but I don’t think Trump’s ego allows him to consider that he might die some day.

I was thinking about this. How funny would it be if Trump just… Did nothing? Refused to sign legislation, made zero executive orders, just golfed for four years straight? It’s not like he needs to keep people happy so they’ll re elect him, he’s no longer eligible to run.
The problem is that winning only postponed his problems for four years, and he certainly is already worried about when that time comes. He’ll be looking for a solution, and for that he’ll need the favor of people in power. So it’s amusing to think he might just chill, but I really doubt he will :(
Great video, thanks for sharing.
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.
