Yearning for the matron
Is this what is meant by history repeating itself?

“Staring across the water again?" Marco asked. It was as if his friend were in a trance.
"Look... look... you can just see it?"
"See what?"
"Look... there, across the water. The city skyline... inviting... enticing."
"Ha ha... my friend, you spend too much time staring at that distant shore. You are as a man bewitched."
"Bewitched or not, I mean to have her."
"I fear your advances may not be welcome."
"Welcome or not, I will take her. The people would love me for it."
"Donald Trump, bed Mother Canada, and the whole MAGA nation will love you forever."
