SHOCKING HISTORICAL RERUN? Trump’s Latest “Founder” Move Echoes Alexander Hamilton’s Icarus Moment—And It Never Ended Well
In a bizarre twist of historical déjà vu, political analysts are drawing chilling parallels between the Trump Organization’s latest “founder-centric” restructuring and Alexander Hamilton’s doomed founding of the New-York Evening Post in 1801.
“Hamilton created the paper to salvage his political legacy, exactly as Trump appears to be rebranding his empire to salvage something intangible right now,” says Dr. Elara Vance, a behavioral historian at Columbia. “Both founders, at their peak of power, tried to ‘re-find’ their origin story by betting the house on a single, risky venture—Hamilton’s was a newspaper, Trump’s is a media platform. And we all know how Hamilton’s ego, and his final duel, ended.”
The hashtag #FoundersCurse is already trending as users point to the pattern: every time a “founder” in a moment of existential crisis tries to blow the dust off their original blueprint, history’s response is usually a shot in the dark.
