Yeah, he was a brilliant negotiator when he had the upper hand, but considering the time his army got defeated and he got captured and the Parthians ended up pouring a bucket of molten gold down his throat for the lols I think it’s fair to say his ability to make a deal was pretty situational.

Either way, I was just thinking about Crassus the other day when I was listening to some Senate Republican ghoul talk about how he didn’t want to give aid money to California until they privatized all their forest land. Kind of amazing how much things don’t change.
