My only fear about Trump isn't that he will become emperor, my fear is he is Caesar and sets the groundwork for Augustus to become emperor a generation later.SuburbanFarmer wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 12:20 pmNot without a Caesar to lead the troops into the capital city - Maryland’s governor notwithstanding.
I don’t think there’s a precedent for coup without a Charismatic Leader at the front...

Pretty hard to be a Caesar without the loyalty of the troops. The Fall of the Republic was a military coup. He was more popular with both the army and the people than the rest of the government.TheOneX wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 1:08 pmMy only fear about Trump isn't that he will become emperor, my fear is he is Caesar and sets the groundwork for Augustus to become emperor a generation later.SuburbanFarmer wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 12:20 pmNot without a Caesar to lead the troops into the capital city - Maryland’s governor notwithstanding.

We don’t seem to have anyone like that. We’re headed for more of a Bronze Age Collapse at the moment.

Biden launching new attacks on oil and gas - lolz - the proles are about to get hit so hard and they don’t even know it. Food is going to go through the roof...along with Amazon shipping charges....
Guess it will just make the proles angrier and demand more subsidies...
Not sure it’s even possible to leave US anymore, how you going to open a foreign bank account? Or take physical gold with you?

I'm more fearful of a China situation of one party rule, than I am of a single dictator coming to power.

Really starting to look like some states will break away...if you Alaska, you going to let the Feds impoverish a majority of your citizens who work in oil and gas?
What about TX? I mean shit - they’re passing articles of secession around already.

Trump is old and suffers from a lack of self-awareness; he is a threat to no one but the status quo. Now, if it was me, then you’d have something to fear.

You’d have to claim amnesty - what country would grant that?
