I meant to ask this the other day. Since we are/are not inciting violence and murder in pursuit of power, has anyone heard anyone officially reference Henry II? You know, "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" Maybe they could dig up that 1964 movie with Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole. Not that I want to insult Henry II by association.

    Lots of people were saying "this is the turbluent priest all over again," but officially? No.

    I feel like both Becket and Henry II were infinitely better politicians than drumpf, but ...

    The reference occurred to me, but I hadn't seen it used.
