Why was he such a cunt? I am reading Caesar and Cicero just

Good thing everyone hated him after the Cataline conspiracy. He was such a fucking cunt.

Everyone except for Caesar apparently.

He went out of his way to help and foster a relationship with Cicero over a decade, only for the ass to completely turn his back on him even before crossing the Rubicon.

And then Mark Antony cucked him to pieces on Caesar's orders.

>The optimates faction never truly accepted Cicero; and this undermined his efforts to reform the Republic while preserving the constitution.
how would you feel if the people you did everything for liked the man who wanted to tear down everything they stood for more than you because he was of a higher social class

All the prominent senators at the time were fucking dicks it im glad that they were put in their place.

Mark Anthony killed Cicero years after Caesar died. And he did it because Cicero spent months doing nothing but ruin his reputation by orating his philippicae.

He was too smug for this world.
