Can you guess who about whom I am speaking?

He was a public figure, dangerous to the Ruling Class. He traveled about the country giving speeches to huge, wildly enthusiastic audiences, and the government types feared his popularity among the masses.

They accused him of multiple crimes.

They attacked him as a cold-hearted louse who was only out for his own power and aggrandizement.

He gave them plenty of ammunition, calling them names and attacking them at every turn.

He was known to lose his temper, once even trashing a market.

He hung out with prostitutes and other loose women. He hung out with crooks and those whom the social mandarins deemed unsavory.

The authorites were determined to break him, and often sent the media to try to trap him in interviews.

He did a great deal of charity privately, avoiding his charitable acts being made public.

He was accused of bilking his supporters. He was accused of being a fraud.

In the end they framed him on trumped up charges and arrested him and brought him to trial.

Who am I talking about? Donald Trump.

No; read your Gospel friend.

I am in no way comparing Trump to Jesus, but am pointing out the similarities in the way both were treated by the Ruling Class. The Ruling Class changes faces and named, but they remain ever the same.
