Trump Derangement Syndrome Spirals Out of Control with Sick Performance of Trumpian Julius Caesar
PJ Media ^ | June 6, 2017 | Debra Heine

Trump Derangement Syndrome continues to spin out of control within certain segments of society, and offenders seem unable to recognize when a line has been crossed.

The Public Theater's rendition of Julius Caesar in New York City is a prime example of the phenomenon.

This version of Shakespeare’s tragedy features a Caesar who bears a striking resemblance to President Donald Trump, complete with his trademark orange hair, business suit, and long red (or blue) necktie. True to the original play, the rash populist Caesar ends up being assassinated on the Senate floor by a group of conspirators — including his friends Cassius and Brutus -- saving the Republic from his dangerous reign.

They didn't even attempt to be subtle with the imagery, according to one woman who was able to see a sneak preview of the performance. During the murder scene when the Trumpian Ceasar is stabbed to death, "an American flag hovers overhead," according to the woman, while "blood was spewing everywhere out of his body.” She told Joe Piscopo on AM 970 THE ANSWER that the audience seemed disturbingly accepting of the heinous scene.....

This is Kathy Griffin but with a Shakespearean veneer. Imagine if Caesar had been played by an Obama look-alike during the Obama administration. How the media would have howled.

They play with a fire that will not be quenched until the last drop of insurrectionist blood is spilled.

The USSS should be interested in meeting with those responsible for the not-so-subtle suggestion for a present-day assassination of a nation’s leader.

The actors, director, and others associated with the Public Theater’s rendition of Julius Caesar should prepare to be questioned as well as submitting to possible body cavity searches.

There is a Pulitzer Prize for the first MSM name that exposes the fraud of the birth certificate

Sounds like many people can get creative with 0bama look-alikes AFTER his administration.

And with Hillary look-alikes.

They don’t know the play, “Julius Caesar”, otherwise it would have been clear that once they killed him, all hell broke loose for Rome.

Well, Marc Antony prevailed, didn’t he?

Who did he resemble in this play, I wonder. Maybe Bernie Sanders?

Just for contrast, anyone remember when a rodeo clown put on an Obama mask and the left went after him with everything they had?

But their depictions of Trump assassinations are just fine.

I still think that day will come after all of the dust settles from this raucous transfer of power.

Did the play follow Shakespeare? If so, it is a powerful warning to the crazy liberals...

in the play, the people rise up and kick out the murderers, a civil war starts, and the murderers lose... and as everyone knows, it starts a round of civil wars that cause the downfall of the Roman republic..

In an way, yes. But it can also be seen that he was a major contributor on the road to Roman ruin.

Wasn't it Cassius who said?, "O Julius Caesar, thou art mighty yet."
