- Why we NEED to study History
- Historian Mary Beard contends that
- Rome became a de facto empire due to territorial expansion
- too vast to be effectively governed by a democratic republic
- So the territorial empire created the first emperors
- to fill a political void
- IMO This is frightening
- the USA is rapidly expanding its holdings
- (military installations)
- satellite nations
- We cannot decide how to effectively administer them
- Could this be why we are facing the threat of
- Emperor Donald Trump I?
- IMO This upcoming election is not
- whether the USA will become an empire or a republic
- But rather what direction the Empire of the United States will take.
- Or to put it more bluntly:
- The 1% want their empire
- and will stop at nothing to get it.
- Prediction: Tyrant Trump will fail
- He insists on doing everything himself
- Nothing happens without Trump's approval.
- He will drown in the details.
