And Caesar only had one Brutus wielding a knife - we have a lot of traitors doing their best to teach the People a lesson for going with the best choice available. Hopefully the People have the smarts to teach them the lesson instead.

The quote actually is, “Et tu, Brut?” From the thought, “You too, Brutus?”

Brutus ONLY attacked AFTER the rest of the Senators had ganged up together and began their assault on Caesar.

What I was told by my English teacher (25+ years ago) was that all the other conspirators stabbed Caesar in the back...Brutus was the only one who stabbed him in the front, and was thus recognized.

I know about Brutus - my point was that the GOP/RNC have a lot like him waiting to put the knife to trump - even though it will be tearing the guts out of the People as they twist it.
