No I don’t think so. Caesar was part of a conspiracy with Crassus and Pompey to rule secretly over Rome. Though Trump is a populist, I think Trump is pulling more of a Sulla move at the moment.
It’s interesting to think if Caesar hadn’t been assasinated perhaps the republic could have survived, if Caesar had renounced power like Cincinnatus. I doubt it. Either way people thought the republic had been restored when Octavian defeated Marc Antony, and assumed the Imperium and the Pax Romana started. In reality is was republic in name only.
Nah... he was always a rent seeking piece of shit
