Crassus' defeat destabilized the Triumvirate. It collapsed within a few years, contributing directly to the civil war that ended the Republic. A war launched for personal financial + egotistical reasons by one man, against institutional objections, with compromised advisers.

Is Trump more like Caligula, Crassus, or Commodus?

I remember the run up to the invasion of Iraq. The Bush administration actually built up a case with intel and went to the UN Security Council with it. Flawed, but they did.

JARED KUSHNER told Trump he had to invade and he just did it. Bypassed Congress, didn't consult any allies, just did it.

"Ambrosia Sky: Act Two will now serve as the conclusion to Dalia’s return home. When we first introduced Ambrosia Sky, we outlined Dalia’s story as a three-act journey. As development has continued, we've decided to bring the remaining chapters together into a single, cohesive finale."

They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a β€œweapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.
