People have been doing this for 1000's of years. Trump is behaving very similar to Marc Anthony before Caesar had to remove and replace him. Had to do some digging and found a video I had watched a year ago and the parallels are shocking in their similarity to the current state of US politics...
Scholars of the classics would always preface the sources of the time as being exaggerated tall tales written by the victors. However, I am not so sure about that now, given the craziness happening in the States at the moment.
