More aptly applied to Trump than Faust: "You are but a pathetic man, ruler of a dying Empire to which you promised much greatness. Your hubris brought things to where they lay now. You have been declared a failure, as all dictators before you” ….so it continues, with fresher eyes and ears, than mine your fate is of those tyrants before you, an end brought by your own hand. You spoke well, your tongue of gold. Empty were your words, and tar and pitch coursed through your heart, for there was no blackness darker. Greed, pride, you are a cliché of the ages. The history so documented by the hand of mankind, in stone as it is paper, shall not treat you kind, but alas, you will not be the last of your ilk and I, sir, will stand faceless; tall, silent, present once again for the demise which has befallen your kind over the centuries. Aeons shall pass, but shall not. I will bask in the forest of the human consciousness. Demise and condemnation of your soul was known well before now, from the cradle revealed, is it was then and as it shall be for times to come. Eternity beckons . Your cunning hatch-lock the ears of many, blinded others, all by deception, in principles you embraced by choice. A debt is owned, it will be paid, as Faust had owed my dear Mephistopheles".
