I think Trump is doing exactly the same thing. He is having statues of himself made and wants to renovate the entire White House. I wonder, Mum, aren't you afraid that in a few years, or actually in a year's time, you won't be there anymore?
It always feels a bit strange when people erect statues of themselves. I think that later degeneration should not do that, if at all.
I certainly believe that leaders, rulers, dictators, crazy Neros are firmly convinced that they own everything, the world, and can do anything. You can see that now with the Epstein files; the leaders are not being arrested.
