![trump-dr.gorka Shakespeare in the Park portraying the assassinated Caesar as President Trump](https://static-asset.amac.us/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/12142927/trump-dr.gorka_.jpg)
How’s your Shakespeare?
Or just your ancient history?
Have you seen the British bards’s play Julius Caesar? Do you know what happened to the most famous Roman leader, on March 15th, 44BC, the Ides of March?
On that day, on the floor of the Roman Senate, Gaius Julius Caesar was stabbed more than 20 times by the then politicians of that great Empire.
Why should you care?
Because the Democrats have used that actual event to recently execute what the usually very sober Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway has called “Assassination Prep Ops.”
In one weekend the editorial board of the New York Times and the Washington Post published pieces claiming that the re-election of President Trump would lead to a “dictatorship” in America, and the Atlantic magazine dedicated its latest issue to the authoritarian threat of a second Trump term.
And as if some mandatory talking points had been issued by some Central Committee of Democrats, Never-Trumpers and RINOs, at the same time these articles just happened to be simultaneously released, the likes of Trump-haters such as Liz Cheney, John Bolton, and Anne Applebaum gave cable TV interviews demanding that Nikki Hayley run as a 3rd party candidate to sabotage Trump lest the “fascist” bring authoritarianism to America.
There are two obvious problems with these Cassandra-like warnings.
Firstly, President Trump has already held the office of Chief Executive. For 4 years. That’s why he’s running again, as is his right, to serve a second term.
During those four years, President Trump never used the FBI to raid his predecessors’ home at gun point. He didn’t have federal agents arrest a former President’s adviser at Reagan airport and put him in leg-shackles for a contempt of Congress charge. And he didn’t have the feds spy on innocent Americans attending school meetings. These fascistic acts were only taken under the current Biden Administration. If there is a threat of authoritarianism in America, it’s not prospective, it’s now.
President Trump’s home at Mar a Lago was raided on a spurious allegation concerning “classified documents.” Peter Navarro was arrested then strip-searched and put in the same cell John Hinckley, the man who tried to kill President Ronald Reagan, was held in. And, as courageous FBI whistleblower Kyle Seraphin has testified, the Bureau surveilled Americans and classed them as domestic threats simply because they are Catholics.
These are the acts of a police-state where the most powerful parts of government, the men with badges and guns, are deployed against those who disagree politically with their masters.
The second is perhaps even worse.
In the 5,000+ word screed the Washington Post published, left-wing intellectual grandee, Robert Kagan, wrote the following about the 45th President of the United States: “When a marauder is crashing through your house, you throw everything you can at him.” Really? Everything?
In case his Democrat readers don’t understand what has to be done, Kagan spells it out: “Like Caesar, Trump wields a clout that transcends the laws and institutions of government, based on the unswerving personal loyalty of his army of followers.” President Trump is a proto-Caesar. And you remember what the “good guys” did to him, right?
Think it sounds far-fetched? Promoting the need to kill a former and potentially future head-of-sate? How about the fact that we have a dark history in our nation of men of the left killing the prominent for political reasons? From the Democrat, John Wilkes Booth, who killed our first ever Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, because he emancipated the nation’s slaves? Or the avowed Communist and Soviet defector, Lee Harvey Oswald, who gunned down the ardent anti-Communist John F. Kennedy ? Or Sirhan Sirhan, the Palestinian extremist who slew his brother RFK because he was pro-Israel? Or how about more recently?
Do you know who James Hodgkinson is? Or rather was? He was the Bernie Sanders campaign volunteer who took a Soviet SKS rifle and a kill-list of Republican congressmen to a baseball field near DC to kill as many Conservatives as possible, almost succeeding in assassinating Majority Whip Steve Scalise before he was himself killed by two brave police officers.
Then, of course, there’s the plot on the life of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Nicholas Roske, pro-Abortion radical Democrat traveled from California to Justice Kavanaugh’s Virginia home with a Glock 9mm, a knife and zip-ties to immobilize and then kill Kavanaugh, his wife and his children. Why? Because the Trump nominee was pro-life.
All the way from John Wilkes Booth through Lee Harvey Oswald and Sirhan Sirhan to James Hodgkinson, and Nicholas Roske, the Democrat Party has an established history of assassinating, or trying to assassinate, Conservative Americans, simply because they are Conservatives.
And now they are screaming from the rooftops – and from the pages of the mainstream media – that if Americans democratically choose Trump once again as their President, then “democracy will die.” So, someone else should die instead.
An exaggeration? Why is Robert Kagan talking about Trump as Caesar and demanding we “throe everything” at him as if he’s a home-invader? If it were an exaggeration then why did the Shakespeare in the Park theater company dress the historic Caesar as Donald Trump, in a modern blue suit, blonde wig and red tie, just to have him be stabbed to death every night in front of hundreds of Americans? I repeat: they dressed the actor playing Caesar to look like the President before he was “killed” nightly.
Mollie Hemingway is right. The Left is normalizing the idea that the man who has garnered more than 130 million votes in two elections will be America’s first dictator and he must be stopped.
At all costs.
Pray for President Trump, his family, and the Secret Service agents sworn to protect him and his loved ones.

I am seriously concerned that an attempt, at least, will be made to kill DJT. If unsuccessful, it will provoke a huge backlash against the left, but if successful, it could provoke actual civil war. Pray for our country!
The abuses of power perpetrated by the Biden Administration make me wonder who the real dictator in the making is.
I don’t know if I should laugh or cry when the moronic Biden supporters say Trump would be a dictator. The Biden administration loves making idiotic policies and ignoring the rule of law. These fools have yet to do anything that makes sense. If Biden, or any other Democrat gets elected president in 2024 this country will be destroyed.
It really is time to consider if now might be the time to consider utilizing the Second Amendment for its true intended purpose.
Our government really can be considered tyrannical and as the “people” in “we the people”, it might be time to act as the founders intended.
My fear is the Biden justice dept have DJT convicted of some trumped up (no pun intended) felony, put in some jail, where ever, and just like what happened to Jeffery Epstein, turn of the camera and be found the next morning dead and say he committed suicide!
The current government is the terrorists to our American Society.
Our only hope is in our Almighty God’s intervention. We must do our part: praying for our country. This has been going on for decades, we just didn’t see it until it became so blatant. God has allowed this so our eyes would be opened….! Praying….
When one Party goes after the other Party, with intent and malice, to keep that Party down is an act of despicable and abhorrent behavior and, actually defiant of the founding fathers ideal!!! The Democrat Party is moving far left to socialism and their focus is to get rid of Trump instead of taking care of the business of our country!!!! I don’t trust Democrats to do the right thing – ever!!!!!
This scenario is not a fantasy but a very scary possibility Left is like a cornered beast fighting for it’s right to rule It is known for marching over dead bodies and getting away with it every time
Just maybe President Trump should be given the Congressional Medal of Freedom. He saved us from Hilary Clinton. Who knows what evil that would have been.
God save Trump and all of us from these real self delusional communists. They are the perfect slaves thinking they are free..
None of this surprises me. The Democrats have always shouted out loud that the Republicans are doing exactly what they themselves are actually doing. The problem is, approximately half of America believes everything they say without ever checking for themselves to see if any of it’s true…they truly are Kool-Aid drinkers and it wouldn’t surprise me if one of them took matters into their own hands.
Read “Losing America” by David L. Stover. The book will begin your travels through all of the initiatives being proposed or in place thanks to the Democrats, WEF, our Government and China. You must read this book before all others. It is a roadmap to protect yourself and understand what is happening to America.
I’m sorry but these leftists need to be eliminated
These idiots suggesting the assasination of DJT are masquerading as those who defend liberty and our constitution! I read the constitution and did not find an amendment allowing the assasination of a polical rival. The WaPo, NYT, and Atlantic should be shut down or at least fined for treason!
I’m old, but I am locked and loaded. they want war, kill trump and they will get it.
You belong on the AARP website, not here.
Absolutely will pray for our conservative leaders,espedially for President Trump
This article is a good reminder of what the demon party is.
Amazing how they want Trump dead; their knives should be aimed at Soros, and the “one who should not be named” (BHO) who are killing our country!!
Democrats are too busy stabbing America 20X to kill one man… yet.
Why don’t you move to Cuba, Venezuela, China, Russia, or other Communist country if you like what this current Administration is doing. You need to wake the F up. You are clueless.
Heard, read he survived past attempts made since 2015
Prayers for DJT and family every day. He needs to be covered with God’s protection to get by this evil democrat regime in place. His supporters also , are and will be targeted. The dictator party is in place now . Not the other way around. Keep your head on a swivel, watch your six, hold the line, never give up, never give in..
So you’re saying Biden can’t do anything right when he and Merrick Garland can’t convict such a prolific criminal as Trump. Gee what an F-up Joe is!
Rerun the Ides of March Today on Trump.
Very scary
As my maternal grandmother used to say, many years ago, “This country is going to Hell in a hand basket”! So true! What is happening in our country and around the world is sickening! The government is pitting people against each other and people are going along with it. I’m not the only one that feels this way, when I go out and about most people are the first ones to bring up the subject.
People do you own research about issues, don’t vote the “party”, vote for the candidate in other words “Don’t follow the leader or the crowd”, be your own person and do what is right.
I pray for our country, the Trump family, even the Puppet’s family are in my prayers. This country has to get back on track before it’s too late, do not let history repeat itself!
I never met a fanatic that wasn’t a Democrate, but not all Democrates are fanatics. Maybe that’s no longer correct. Seems that truth is their most difficult concept, because they live within their shared preceptions not fact or truth. It was once said; if, of the many truths, you select only one and follow it blindly. It can become a falsehood, and you a fanatic! Maybe that is a better defination a Democrate. They live within their precptions not facts or truth, and devote themselves to proving their preceptions rather than fact and/or truth!
The current usurper is the closest we’ve ever had to a communist or fascist dictator. Before that, Obama was.
I have had this fear for quite some time now. We already know, as do the democrats, they have no faith in the indictments they have brought against Trump otherwise they wouldn’t be already appealing to the Supreme Court to rule in favor of their ridiculous claims. Why so many indictments? The more files the better chance that one will stick. Unfortunately the only next logical step is to assassinate Trump. He can’t serve if he is dead. The democrats have a very long checkered past and until they are stopped they will continue to do anything and everything they can to manipulate the people.
The thugs of our USA are now our elective candidates, being elected. The intelligence they bring our government is changes are law that that forefathers left in a The old countries. Formed our Contitution based on laws that prevent laws against all Americans. We the people.
I think it’s time for all patriots to get involved in this next election, that means you will have to stand your ground, which is to say get involved with your county election officials and become poll watchers etc.Don’t let the officials push you around. Challenge everything that looks peculiar Make them follow the election laws of your state, make them close the polls on time and stick around after the closing. I had to do this in Alabama during the Ronald Reagan election and before and was threatened several times( I was the only poll watcher in the whole county) and threatened several polls with closing them down. Which in Alabama was a power I had as a poll watcher under Alabama law. every rule on the election laws was being ignored. I was astounded. The poll officials were allowing husbands to enter the booths with their wives (violation of privacy) The excuse was ” We have always done it this way”. Well this practice stops today I said . Blount county Alabama was Totally Democratic controlled in those days. After Reagan, Alabama woke up and has been in control of the Republican party since. But, it has taken constant watching or the monster will sneak up again. We must remember WE elect our officials and when people like Obama and Joe Biden get into office we are partially, if not totally to blame.
We now have a totally weaponized central government, DOJ, CIA, FBI, State Department, etc. we are not becoming a banana republic, we ARE one. Uncle Joe is a dictator and a lousy one at that.
This is what happens in a banana republic. It seems to me that they are also pushing that Trump’s supporters, aka supporters of our Constitution, are a “sleeping giant” that they also fear and would like to destroy as well. I’ll bet they think removing all of us fits in nicely with reducing the earths population they preen so much about. They are afraid that if they don’t hurry and cow us, their great reset will be destroyed. I pray it is so!
The Democrats (and their CCP overlords) are going to stop Trump from being the next president. They must, because they fear Trump’s revenge against them personally. That means they either must kill him, kill enough of his voters, or cheat enough that he can’t be elected. If they can’t cheat enough, they will either unleash a new pandemic designed to kill Trump voters (virus creation will be outsourced to China, of course), or arrange Trump’s assassination. But any way you cut it, Trump isn’t coming back.
In this country the way it is now anything can happen I have always thought what if the hate for Trump would not lead to some one hired to try to kill him all because they do not want him as president if it would happen there needs to be a shake up in the White House and our government.
Your handle is an offense to the pigskin
