A bit of a comparison to the vampires like Henry Kissinger and Soros who WON'T die.
Plus with the constant Trump news for the past 8 years on that one qoute, it was too good a opportunity to use that title for a guy that made a cabinet that could part-time on onlyfans.
RIP you old devil. :)
Berlusconi was called a 'dictator' in European media. He's the proto-Trump in terms of the reaction that he got. Also that he got nothing done. Difference being that he had some media companies which gave him positive coverage, while Trump faces a universally hostile media.
He DID get the Strait of Messina Bridge project approved. Only for it to be cancelled by Monti, and then reinstated by Meloni.
Is that good?
It's to connect mainland Italy to Sicily. They've been trying to build it since Pliny the Elder suggested it.
It's not even that wide of a crossing, bit over 2 miles with a maximum depth of 235 feet (Verrazzano-Narrows in NYC is wider). It wouldn't be setting any firsts were it not for their deliberate decision in the 2006 design phase to go for a record setting center span so the towers don't have to be built in the water.
Oh, I think most countries would build that. There are dumber bridges.
Yeah this is is why the joke ends with hell being managed by the Italians.
Two thousand years to build a bridge to Sicily. One really determined guy with a shovel and a wheelbarrel could have built a gravel causeway across the strait by hand in that time.
