Fifth century B.C.:
"A man is known by the company he keeps." -- Aesop's fable of "The Ass and His Purchaser."
21st century A.D.:
“Now, if Trump does win, okay, it’s going to be a real opportunity for people like white nationalists, acting intelligently to build upon that..." -- American Nazi Party Chairman Rocky Suhayda on his radio show last month. The same "person" writing last September said,
“We have a wonderful OPPORTUNITY here folks, that may never come again, at the RIGHT time. Donald Trump’s campaign statements, if nothing else, have SHOWN that ‘our views’ are NOT so ‘unpopular’ as the Political Correctness crowd have told everyone they are!”Thus can Aesop's fable be updated to "The Ass and His Followers" now.
