Absolutely not.

Incredibly, there were no injuries. Hero.
In 458 BC, Rome was on the brink of collapse.
An invading army had trapped the Roman consul and his legion in a mountain pass. Panic spread through the city. The Senate did the only thing they could think of:
They sent messengers to find a 60-year-old farmer plowing his field.
His name was Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus. He had once been a senator, then lost his fortune paying his son's bail. Now he worked his own four-acre plot just to feed his family.
When the Senate's envoys arrived, they found him sweating behind a plow. They asked him to put on his toga so they could deliver an official message.
The message: Rome was making him dictator. Absolute power. Total command of the army. No checks. No oversight. No term limit.
He accepted.
Within 16 days, Cincinnatus had raised an army, marched out, surrounded the enemy, and forced their surrender. The republic was saved.
He had legal authority to rule for six months. He could have stayed. He could have expanded his power. He could have done what every other ruler in human history did when handed unlimited control.
Instead, he resigned on day 16.
He took off the toga, walked back to his farm, and finished plowing the field he'd left half-done.
Twenty years later, when Rome faced another crisis, they called him back. He was 80 years old. He took command, crushed the conspiracy, and resigned again, this time after just 21 days.
He died poor. On his farm.
2,200 years later, when George Washington was offered a kingship after winning the American Revolution, he refused and went home to Mount Vernon. The reason he was hailed as "the American Cincinnatus" is because Europeans literally could not believe a man who had won would willingly give up power.
King George III, on hearing Washington would resign rather than rule, said: "If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world."
The lesson isn't that Cincinnatus was humble.
The lesson is that for most of human history, the people most qualified to lead were the ones who didn't want to. And the moment a society starts rewarding those who chase power instead of those who flee from it is the moment the republic begins to die.
Cincinnati, Ohio is named after him.
Most people who live there have no idea why.

Over 200,000 illegal votes were cast in Wisconsin's 2020 election, identified via ballot envelopes containing absentee ballots, allowing verification by name, address, and ward. Officials discovered over 3,000 incomplete or altered certificates on envelope fronts, plus more than 2,000 ballots with no required clerk initials verifying compliance.
Wisconsin bans early voting, yet Madison City allowed ballot drop-offs in parks five weeks early and used unauthorized drop boxes without chain-of-custody for 17,271 ballots. The total was higher but thousands of illegal ballots were mixed with legal ballots to evade detection. Legal delivery is only in-person or by mail to clerk's office.
Over 28,395 claimed "indefinitely confined" status (no ID required for elderly/ill/disabled), including Biden elector, poll workers, protesters, and vacationers to skip ID. An "other" category saw 170,000 ballots without applications, using envelopes as certification, which is against the law. Of 3 million proper votes, over 200,000 were illegal and were counted in the Wisconsin recount.
