Even Trump admitted he can't stand the sight of blood. Can't imagine him under an arrow-laden shield laughing. He'd be the one looking up remarking that the sun is going dark.

Hmm... not really.

I mean sure Trump trying to align himself with this type of machismo is as pathetic as it always is.

... and yes the 300 spartans died while the persians did not die, so they were victorious in that sense.

However, the movie does try to push the narrative that those 300 spartans won an important victory because their death united the armies of the city states of greece to defend against the oncoming persian army.

They would have done a better job if they also showed the thousands of Helots, Thebians and Thespians that fought there as well.

Maybe even the Athenian victory over the president fleet at salamis.

US history classes have always been incredibly propagandized for as long as any of us have been alive unless you're over 90.

I mean, child abuse? Check. Incompetent to nonexistent strategy? Check. Getting bought by the highest bidder to the detriment of literally everyone involved except a handful of elites? Check.

Turns out, Sparta kinda sucks.

I imagine trying to squeeze trump into a plate carrier would be like trying to squeeze 10lbs of shit into a 5lb sack
