Setting the Stage

Carlos Velazquez

Setting the stage. No pun intended.

As I've said repeatedly, when someone is a Caesar or a Hitler or an existential threat to freedom and democracy, it's logical to eliminate him by any means necessary. Here's what COPILOT AI reports about it trying to assume a neutral tone despite detailing something so evil with dangerous consequences.

In 2017, the Public Theater's "Shakespeare in the Park" production of "Julius Caesar" in New York City depicted a modern-day version of the play, where the character of Julius Caesar was portrayed to resemble then-President Donald Trump. The production was directed by Oskar Eustis and featured Caesar with Trump-like characteristics , including his mannerisms and appearance.

Production: "Julius Caesar" by William Shakespeare, produced by the Public Theater as part of its annual "Shakespeare in the Park" series.
Director: Oskar Eustis
Setting and Interpretation: The play was set in contemporary times, and Caesar was depicted as a Trump-like figure, complete with a business suit, a long red tie, and blond hair.
Controversy: The depiction of the assassination of a Trump-like Caesar sparked significant controversy and backlash. Critics argued that it was in poor taste and incited violence, while defenders cited artistic freedom and the play's historical context.
Sponsors' Reaction: The controversy led to several corporate sponsors, including Delta Air Lines and Bank of America, withdrawing their financial support from the production.
Public Reaction: The production received a mixed response from the public and critics. While some praised its bold artistic statement, others felt it was disrespectful and inflammatory.
