"Et tu, Brute?" is a Latin phrase that translates to "You too, Brutus?" or "And you, Brutus?" . It is most well known as a line from William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar, where it is spoken by Julius Caesar as his dying words after being stabbed by conspirators, including his friend Brutus. In the play, Caesar is betrayed by the conspirators and is shocked to see Brutus among them. Brutus betrays Caesar because he believes he is acting in the best interests of Rome's citizens.

Lately, I have felt like this is what is happening to our President. Yes, I know all the arguments but we all knew his age going forward and did nothing. He has led us and provided some sanity after our previous President mocked the disabled, and told us to drink bleach to cure Covid--not to count the lies. Instead of being productive the top of the party thinks that now is the time for a change. To push our President out for who?

I firmly believe there should be term limits for all government officials.

Right now, I am looking at the betrayal of our President by those people and other politicians closest to him. Are those politicians really thinking in the best interests of the Party? If so, where were those thoughts a few years ago?

I feel helpless myself. Everyday for the last week, I've written the White House, a couple of times quoting the poll numbers, begging the old fart to retire. This is democracy!
