Damn Mitch, stop playing the role of Cicero. You are really getting into it. I hope I also don't need to remind you the fate of Cicero. His hands were cut off and nailed to the Senate door by Caesar after his treasonous acts.!

Octavian was pro Cicero when the 2nd triumvirate executed Cicero. I can only assume you're calling Antony, Caesar. Which isn't who we want to compare trump to. Cicero is comparable to Turtleneck because he was too old and too loyal to tradition to be included in the assassination of Julius Caesar.

Yes, you are correct. I noticed my mistake that Cicero wasn't killed by Caesar as soon as I clicked on save but I didn't want to edit it. Caesar was already assassinated at this point. I know Cicero thought that he could control and manipulate Octavian but he would find out how wrong he was at that assumption. I agree with you Cicero is a traditionalist and elitist. McConnell fits very well in Cicero narrative. I also think Trump looks more like Julius Caesar who is beloved by Roman People and worked hard for Roman People. But he got killed by people that cared more about their self interest than their own Country.
