No, that’s not a typo. It’s how I thought the phrase went as a kid. As you probably know, “Beware the Ides of March” was a fortune teller’s warning to Caesar in a Shakespeare play. In the arrogance typical of political leaders, Caesar ran into the fortune teller on March 15, and snarkily said “The ides of March are come”, pointing out that he was still alive. To  which she replied “Ay, Caesar; but not gone”. And then of course Brutus – the son of Caesar’s gal from an extramarital affair – helped whack him later that day. Showing that you really can’t trust ANYONE. It’s interesting how especially when it comes to politics, you can take nearly identical phrases and make them mean competely different things.

If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.
-E. M. Forster

In politics it is necessary either to betray one’s country or the electorate. I prefer to betray the electorate.
-Charles de Gaulle
