‘The Ides of Trump’ campaign could be a bonanza for the U.S. Postal Service
Thousands of Americans have a message — actually, a written message — for President Donald Trump today: “Beware the Ides of Trump.”
March 15, a day known throughout history as the ides of March, is (more or less) the fateful day Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC. Since then, it’s had a bit of a gloomy connotation.
Flash forward to March 15, 2017. Email, Twitter and Facebook may rule, but Trump opponents have chosen to actually snail mail postcards — lots of them — to the White House at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW. Specifically, postcards that express their vocal opposition to the new president.
