A “Shakespeare in the Park” production of Julius Caesar by the Public Theater features a mock assassination of a President Donald Trump lookalike. Public Theater is sponsored by none other than The New York Times.
The play, a contemporary update on the original, does not refer to the president by name — but their Caesar character holds a striking resemblance to Trump and his wife to the First Lady.

Does Caesar need to be nude? I guess in NYC. On Friday in Times Square there was a nude body painting event. A group of people under name "Body Notes". You may search this under bing or on youtube , but this is full nude in Times Square in a fenced in area.
Bank of America, Delta Air Lines, The New York Times, American Express. Anyone who hasn’t already banned those sponsors are encouraging Trump’s assassination.
The PsyOp continues to normalize the event they “hope” for
I haven’t associated with any of these crowds in years and I have yet another great reason not to.
Ban the New York Times from the White House briefing or any gov’t briefing.
*Sigh* looks like I’m going to have to call the secret service again. They probably know about this, but it doesn’t hurt to call. Anytime I see something that even suggests the death of our POTUS I call. I called them up immediately upon the terrorist Kathy Griffins ISIS death threat, I will probably call again for that because it seems she hasn’t be arrested when she clearly is a threat which she confirmed at her press conference by saying she will continue her threats. Here is the main number if anyone is interested, although I prefer to contact my local field office for faster contact..

What about in NYC. The Delacourt is a short distance from Trump Tower.
But this play ends June 18 , it began May 23.
There would be no way in the world a Julius Caesar with a black actor could have been performed in the past 8 years. And similar clothing would not been needed to claim a connection.
worse, even after word spread online about NYT sponsorship, NYT published the following positive review, without a hint of any connection to the theatre group:

NYT Critic’s Pick
Naturally, some right-wing commenters are revving up their outrage over what they assume is an incitement to violence against the president...
Neither as a citizen nor as a critic do I object to any of this. The first half of the play, culminating in that funeral scene, is great, nasty fun, even if, at the heart of Manhattan, it’s preaching to the choir...
The fault is not in the stars, as good a group as the Public has assembled in the park in years...
The fault is not in the stars, as good a group as the Public has assembled in the park in years...
In that sense, this “Julius Caesar” is a deeply democratic offering, befitting both the Public and the public — and the times. If in achieving that goal it flirts a little with the violent impulses it otherwise hopes to contain, and risks arousing pro-Trump backlash, that’s unfortunate but forgivable...
A version of this review appears in print on June 10, 2017, on Page C1 of the New York edition with the headline: Democracy Dies in the Park.

I guess Delta is still mad at Trump for this
But they would never do anything to anger their best buddies, the m*slims.
The SS, FBI and the American people have a lot of work to do
Yup, along with CNN and MSNBC. If I were Trump, i would not allow them on White House property.
So, what if someone produces a play about the execution for treason of the New York Times staff? Wonder what the reaction would be?
I’ve already called AMEX to voice my disapproval and outrage.
Not to mention the DOJ, courts, rope manufacturers, and builders of gallows.

Everyone needs to know how and where to flag these bad deeds with the authorities.
I saw clips from this on Fox & Friends. It’s more violent and realistic than anything I’ve ever seen in a live play. At least the Trump figure was valiantly fighting back. Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino was being interviewed about it, and he mentioned how this sort of thing can inspire mentally unstable people to actually attempt an assassination. It’s a little hard not to think that’s the goal of some of these hardcore, hate-filled leftists.
FOX News said that it was taxpayer funded. True or not?
I saw it too on Fox this morning- they picked up that it was women and minority actors who were attacking Trump. Great catch.
