A Man Has No Name 🇺🇦 @manhasnoname.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Trump is Commodus (real one, not Gladiator version): born to wealth, dumb, lazy, avoided war, surrounded himself with criminals. He even renamed Rome after himself, Colonia Commodiana. That’s as Trumpian as it gets. 610413 0
A Man Has No Name 🇺🇦 @manhasnoname.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Seriously, read his biography. He was the first emperor born to a sitting emperor (porphyrogennetos). He surrounded himself with criminals and freedman (freed slaves) ensuring their loyalty. When the Roman mob rioted and wanted someone’s head, he sacrificed Cleander to save his own ass. 151 0
