    Would it be in bad taste to remember Thomas Cromwell's final destiny wasn't just the Tower?https://twitter.com/costareports/status/950847785623986176 …

    Per people close to Bannon, he is wistful but has referenced Thomas Cromwell in recent days, noting that Cromwell guided a King but it never lasts... and Cromwell was eventually sent to the Tower.

        I think it involved a rusty ax.

        Tommy had lots of natural ability, but he didn't keep his head in the game.

        Isn't "sent to the Tower" a euphemism for execution though?

        Lots of people sent to the Tower without being executed

        Of course Cromwell paid the price for choosing a bad fourth wife. Trump isn't quite ready for one... yet.

        A Man For All Seasons is Thomas More, not Cromwell. More was kind of the opposite of Cromwell, though they suffered similar fates.

        I had to look them both up today- I had them mixed up. The moral is: don’t trust Henry VIII.
