How will Mr. Donald J. Trump’s devoted followers respond to this latest 180-degree turn in the party line? The always brilliant William Shakespeare foresaw how it would go down in Act 4, Scene 5, of his play The Taming of the Shrew.
An actor named Petruchio plays Mr. Trump. Another actor, named Katharina, plays an ardent Trumpist. And, finally, one Hortensio represents an employee of the Trump presidential campaign:
Come on, i’ God’s name; once more toward our father’s.
Good Lord, how bright and goodly shines the moon!
Now, by my mother’s son, and that’s myself,
It shall be moon, or star, or what I list,
Or ere I journey to your father’s house.
Go on, and fetch our horses back again.
Evermore cross’d and cross’d; nothing but cross’d!
Forward, I pray, since we have come so far,
And be it moon, or sun, or what you please:
An if you please to call it a rush-candle,
Henceforth I vow it shall be so for me.
Then, God be bless’d, it is the blessed sun:
But sun it is not, when you say it is not;
And the moon changes even as your mind.
What you will have it named, even that it is;
And so it shall be so for Katharina.
