The Portly Politico Considers Tiberius Gracchus

Tyler over at the Portly Politico has a post and a YouTube video linked about Tiberius Gracchus and asks the question if Donald Trump is our Tiberius Gracchus.  If you’re unfamiliar with this historical figure the video is a good intro.  The parallel is reasonable.  Both times feature a selfish elite that imports foreign labor to displace native-born opportunity.  Both times feature an absurd imbalance of wealth that threatens the stability of the republic.  And both feature a reformer who was the target of assassination.  Let me know what you think.
