since there is such a good match between the strutting, preening men who absolutely require adoration from all those around them and are vengeful to anyone who lets the happy face mask slip. Fortunately for us, Orange Cal will have a hell of a lot less power than Caligula did, a terrible lesson the framers of our constitution had learned well.

You're not stealing, you're sharing. That's a good thing. Drives wingnuts nuts to see other people share.

...by 2020, this demented old man will be Putin on steroids. The Caligula comparison won't be funny anymore. Who's going to stop him? The GOP Congress? The "courts"? Don't make me laugh...

along with the military.

Remember, Caligula lasted only 3 years and 10 months before his hand picked and pampered Praetorian Guard did him in.
