This week we're discussing the run up to the final collapse of the Roman Republic, charting such characters as Scipio Aemelianus, the Gracchi Brothers, Gaius Marius, and Sulla and attempting to map them and their historical circumstances onto some of the events of recent American history. While the analogies are imperfect, there are enough similarities for the comparison to be...troubling. We use the book The Storm before the Storm by illustrious podcaster Mike Duncan as our guide in relating this story, a book the author himself has remarked has only become more timely and prescient now that we have entered the second Trump era. Is Trump the Marius of our moment? Was Biden a failed Sulla? To find out you must listen!
We open the episode with a discussion of Senator Chuck Schumer and some of his...missteps of late in leading the opposition to that aforementioned second Trump presidency.
