Rome had been a republic for ~600 years when Caesar took dictorial control. His successor, Augustus (Octavian) was actually the first emperor. He was generally reasonable, but his successor was Tiberius, an absolute shit bag. Then Caligula, Nero, and the rest of the pieces of shit. The Roman swamp created it all, though. We need a serious swamp draining. Only chance our country has. And we need Donald Trump to do it. And once he has, we need him to step aside, and let our republic thrive. That’s what I think.
