It is fictional. Shakespeare did not have a chance to speak to Caesar to find out what was in his mind.
What's your point? Shakespeare also didn't speak to Brutus, Cassius, Mark Antony, the soothsayer and all the other characters in the play either.

Regardless of what Caesar had a clue about, he was murdered on March 15, the Ides of March. There is zero correlation between the Ides of March, the date that Caesar died and discussions of possible events of March 4.
You're making this much more complicated than it deserves. It should be obvious that my use of the phrase "Beware of the Ides of March" in my original post was a metaphor for political intrigue/drama.

Is Shakespeare History? The Romans (Oct 18 2018)
Interesting discussion into Shakespear's plays. What we need to keep in mind with his historical plays about Kings and court intrigue is that the Tudors were notoriously prickly about their claim to the Throne as their founder, Henry Tudor, was from an illegitimate line. Also add in the Reformation and the tension between the Catholics and Protestants at the time.

Maybe the military will just nuke Washington DC.

Will Donato go full Pinochet?

On a side note, I looked up the latest election in Myanmar, the electorate gave the military a slap in the face which they couldn't abide. Correct me if I'm wrong, they were reduced to the 30 seats which may have been their initial allotment for free elections. Now they are contentedly killing protesters. I wonder if the PRC played a role in this? They are terrified of having democratic nations on their border. Hun Sen in Cambodia would have fallen by now if not for PRC support.

They should set a trap and let them come in. Once in, light them up! I'd cheer watching it on CNN.
Funnily enough, that is what some Qanon-ers have been saying. That the March 4th stuff is a trap set by the deep state.

I would never put anything past the PRC or the PLA...Look what they "might" have done in India a few months back. There was a border skirmish in the Himalayas between the PLA and Indian troops. A few were killed. A few months later, the power around Mumbai went down due to malicious code...likely from China...

Whew! That was a long video.

What I tried to do in my original post was to draw a parallel between what is happening in the U.S. to-day to what happened in ancient Rome. Also, to draw a parallel between Trump and Caesar. Although there are, obviously, differences there are also striking similarities.

The good thing, so far anyway, is nobody has been assassinated in the U.S. So, "Beware the Ides of March", metaphorically speaking of course.

Grifters gotta grift and lambs have to be fleeced. Too funny.

MAGA supporters are being charged 180% above market value for rooms in Trump’s failing D.C. hotel


Forbes was the first to report that, shortly after January 6, when the March 4 conspiracy theory first began circulating online, the hotel jacked up the price on a standard room with two queen-sized beds to $1,745 for today.

Earlier this week, the price dropped to $1,331, before dropping again to $745. While that’s $1,000 less than what it was, it’s still 180% above the typical rate of a D.C. hotel this time of year.

Meanwhile, rooms at three other luxury hotels in the same area–Four Seasons, Hay Adams, and St. Regis–remain at their normal rate.

Another opportunity to raise the room rates. I wonder if this is John Barron's idea.

Some QAnon supporters seemed to rebrand the March 4 conspiracy in the wake of community suspicion. While two individuals affiliated with the false theories simply suggested that Trump's inauguration would take place some time in the spring, one man, identified as Ken, told Washington Post reporter Dave Weigel that the former president "will be inaugurated again on March 20" in comments over the weekend. Ken also believes that "Trump is still in command of the military" and "Biden is acting as president as a ruse while the Pope and others are rounded up," according to Weigel.

Qanon is the closest we have to proof of zombies. These people have no brains.
Don't you know it's a long term strategy? When the zombie apocalypse happens they will be looking for brains, so will stay away from Qanons:eek:‼ ...

My point was that your post initiating a mention of the Ides of March was off topic.

And citing a work of fiction with actual characters does not change that.
