Who knows, and quite honestly, who cares.  Delta is a big company that has been around for a long time, but they may make mistakes.  A lot of art is done in poor taste, but then again, it is still art, and people are not forced to look at it.  

I thought you did, that was your statement I quoted.

Obviously you do care enough, and your posts support my claim.

that can't be it. delta and boa are 'the right'. or so i heard.

I'm not sure if Delta and BOA are the right, but they are definitely not in favor of Trump being depicted as Caesar, but when it was Obama it didn't matter. So the only logical conclusion to make is that Delta and BOA are definitely Trump supporters and are definitely not part of the  "massive anti trump publicity being driven by the leftist media".

My god has ANYONE actually read this play?? Julius Caesar is a cautionary tale against violence and assassination. Those who murder Caesar end up being killed themselves, committing suicide, or living in misery and professional ruin. Shakespeare's point being that no matter how awful you perceive a person to be, violence will never get you the outcome you desire. (and also that we should beware group think and go about change in a diplomatic way instead). Even if the costuming was less obvious in its mimic of 45, its impossible to stage this show without drawing parallels to current political leadership. What hypocrites these companies are. (also its just too funny that a corrupt company like Bank of America thinks its taking some moral high-ground here, as if they have morals at all).
