32. Loyalty to Trump
Sat Aug 16, 2025, 11:00 PM
Aug 2025

What they mean is loyalty to Trump.

There are about 20 to 30 quotations from Shakespeare that could apply to Donald Trump and his lack of moral character.

For example:

PAROLES
He will lie, sir, with such volubility
that you would think truth were a fool.
--Shakespeare, All’s Well That Ends Well 4.3.248-49

ADRIANA
Vicious, ungentle, foolish, blunt, unkind,
Stigmatical in making, worse in mind.
--Shakespeare, Comedy of Errors 4.2.21-22

MENENIUS
There is no more
mercy in him than there is milk in a male tiger.
--Shakespeare, Coriolanus 5.4.28-29

Etc. Etc.

Unfortunately, his cabinet tries to emulate Trump's viciousness and mercilessness.
