Promises Broken, Lies Exposed

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart “I will end inflation on day one.” “When I am president, I will end the policy of taxing tips.” “On day one, I will end the war in Ukraine.” “I will be too busy making great deals to play golf.” These and more Trump campaign promises were all lies. What Trump has done is fire government employees who actually worked in Washington, and passed legislation that will eliminate healthcare for as many as 60 million Americans, and give additional tax cuts to his 813 oligarchs. Under the guise of “immigration reform,” Trump and his personal gestapo, ICE, have begun what can only be called ‘ethnic cleansing.’ Another “accomplishment” was to add two totally unnecessary flagpoles on the White House lawn. His next plan is to use 200-400 million dollars to construct a ballroom inside the White House. Is this really important in a nation which is bleeding money as fast as Trump can waste it? Trump is seldom in the “People’s House.” Most of his time is spent golfing or partyin...

Could Trump Pass a Fitness Test? Stop Laughing!

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I begin this article with a statement everyone agrees with: I want Trump to stick his executive orders up his humongous ass. He has been abusing his powers constantly since January 21, 2025, I would like to see all six members of the corrupt side of the Supreme Court perish in a vehicle accident for allowing Trump to become a dictator. Okay, that’s off my chest. Now for the real story; and it’s a funny one. Trump scribbled his signature on another executive order reinstating a real President’s plan to move America from the fattest nation in the world into a nation of fit and healthy people. Let’s compare one President with one wannabe Fuhrer. President John F. Kennedy was 43 years old when he took the oath of office in 1961. He was handsome, fit, brilliant, with a sense of humor not seen since on Capitol Hill. He worked 12-14 hours each day although he suffered from chronic and debilitating back pain from an injury suffered when he played college football. He wa...

Is America the Worst Country in the World?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart When I was very young, I believed the lies politicians continue to tell us today: “America is the greatest country in the world.” Our nation is young, and continues to have problems which must be addressed before anyone can consider that claim valid. The fact that not only the worst president in history won two ‘rigged’ elections, but also the worst man in the world, proves that our country is far from ever becoming a great and respected nation. Our government began its decline in 1981, and today is the worst and most corrupt in the world of developed nations. This situation began with Reagan and the destruction of the dream of our Founding Fathers was completed in 2017 with the inauguration of Donald John Trump. Stop pretending: you know what I know. Not a single person willing to tell the truth can find anything good to say about the obese 79-year-old man pretending to be your president. It is an undeniable fact that between 2017 and 2021 Trump committed crime...

Freedom of and Freedom from Religion

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The cold, hard facts. The United States of America was formally created between 1787 and 1789. After years of rule by a tyrannical king, our Founding Fathers left the land of their birth and came to the New Land, declared their independence from King George III, won the Revolutionary War, and created a nation governed by a sacred document which would become the Law of the Land during the Constitutional Convention. Contained in the Constitution of the United States of America are a number of promises and guarantees, the most important of which are rights and freedoms for all individuals which do not infringe on the rights of the majority. America would become a nation controlled by the people who would elect representatives to serve their needs and wishes in the nation’s capital, regardless of their personal opinions. The Bill of Rights contains those initial rights, guarantees, and freedoms. It is clear by their actions during the Constitutional Convention and t...

Cory Booker Rips both Political Parties, Stands up for America

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart “I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat.” The previous quote was offered by humorist, Will Rogers. It was true in his day and true today. Since the Franklin Delano Roosevelt administration, men and women calling themselves “Democrats” have lost their courage to do the right thing every time, regardless of its popularity with some voters, and no longer place the people ahead of personal ambitions. Today’s “Republicans” sold their souls to fascist Donald Trump, knowing that their base is in steep decline. Democrats can no longer be trusted to be courageous and fight for what is right for all Americans. They are afraid to attack Trump and his Nazi Party with the truth, fearing retaliation from Trump and his like-minded supporters. The absolute truth is neither of our nation’s two major political parties represent their predecessors. Neither party has been perfect; not even close. However, throughout most of my life America has survived ...

Does Trump Believe We, the People, are as Stupid as He Is?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I say it again: if Trump’s piehole is open, he’s lying. He has never once in 79 years told the truth about anything. Today he is attempting to cover up his efforts to serve his 813 oligarchs with huge lies no one with common sense will believe. After Trump’s ill-advised tariffs begin to take effect, Trump’s administration released a press release. "WELCOME TO THE GOLDEN AGE," the White House wrote in a post on X, along with an image of Dear Leader pumping his fist. "Thanks to the leadership of @POTUS, the U.S. has generated over $150B in tariff revenues within the past 6 months." Let’s break this down with some facts; reality about how tariffs will harm 340 million people while benefitting Trump and his 813 oligarchs. I begin with the obvious: the “golden age” is in our past. America is led by a regressive, old man and his fascist minions who are moving our nation into the “dark ages.” We, the people, will continue to suffer from the failures...

Is Trump Really that Childish and Immature?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I am aware that Trump is mentally challenged, and the reason why he is immature and childish, seeking revenge on his “enemies” instead of caring for 340 million people. Although he denies it, Trump is obsessed and desperate to end the discussion about his sordid relationship with our nation’s most infamous pedophile. Trump has tried every tactic he knows in feeble attempts to downplay his and Jeffrey Epstein’s extremely close relationship. Epstein called Trump his “best friend.” Common sense, combined with undeniable facts, confirm that Trump and Epstein partied together frequently. He traveled on Epstein’s private airplane on at least seven occasions, although he claims he never stepped foot on Epstein’s private island. If you believe that, you are too stupid to live by yourself or vote. Their “bromance” lasted for about 15 years, then it ended. Trump is making a laughable and unbelievable assertion that the reason it came to an end was because Epstein “stole s...

Trump Claims to be the “Greatest Peacemaker” in History

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump promised to end the “war” in Ukraine on “Day One.” Six months and nine days later the invasion continues. During his golf excursion to Scotland a reporter asked him about his frequent trips to golf courses in America. His response was such a big lie, it made me laugh out loud. "We put out fires all over the world. We did one yesterday, as you know, we stopped a war, but we stopped about five wars,” Trump said, while standing on a golf green, Tuesday. “So that's ah, much more important than playing golf. As much as I like it, it's much more important." Although his official schedule has not been posted, on the rare occasion Trump was in the White House between 2017 and 2021 his “office hours” were between 11 in the morning and two or three in the afternoon. When he was in the Oval Office, he wasn’t. He was in an adjoining room watching television. The undeniable truth is Donald Trump has never worked a full day in his pitiful 79 years on t...

“I Love Using Other People’s Money”

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Using an old term, few of you likely remember, Trump is a “cheapskate.” According to those around him, he has never left a tip for any service he received. We know he stole money from his own charity. The truth is, he has never done anything for another person unless it was mostly for his own benefit. The title of this article comes directly from the orange buffoon/con man. He told his supporters during the 2016 campaign that he is a user, an abuser, and a thief. Trump’s biggest thefts came while he was pretending to by your president between 2017 and 2021 and from January 20, 2025 until today. For four years Trump’s use of taxpayer funds for his personal pleasure averaged more than six million dollars each month. He made trips to his own golf courses at least 285 times. Nearly every weekend he was partying at Mar-a-Lago. He held his infamous hate rallies throughout his illegitimate presidency, averaging about two each month. For each of these excursions, the co...

In Reality, the Dream was Unattainable: It was the Beginning of a Nightmare

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I was one of millions of America’s children who was privileged to have grown up in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Our fathers, uncles, and in some situations mothers and aunts had defeated the fascist mob attempting to recreate the world in their vile and hate-filled image. I loved school. First grade was spent at St. Mark’s Elementary School in Venice, California. For the next seven years I attended St. Gerard Majella Elementary School in West Los Angeles. Across the nation patriotism was the primary emotion. Beginning in second grade we studied the origin of the United States of America. Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, and the rest were heroes because their dream created America, and because their lofty ideals were pure. Our country was envied by people all over the world. We learned about two world wars and how our fathers and grandfathers were eager to fight for their country and for citizens of other nations who were under siege by military forces controlled by me...

Trump Flew on Epstein’s Private Plane at Least Seven Times, but not to his Island Sex Parties?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump says that he refused to accompany Epstein to his private island. If you believe that, you are dumber than your illegitimate president. Remember, Trump had his own airplane, why would he need “a ride” from his best friend? Trump is a prolific sexual predator, and a serial philanderer. It is unbelievable that he would refuse a change to sexually assault a beautiful underage woman. Even Epstein’s brother claimed that Jeffrey found Trump to be a “very sic k person.” Here’s your laugh for Monday. Trump claims that his reason for ending a long relationship with Epstein was because “he stole people who worked for me.” Really? I would bet my life that he cannot name one maid, waiter, valet parking attendant, or groundskeeper who ever worked for him at Mar-a-Lago. If he did lose a chef or someone of importance, that individual had a good reason for leaving Trump’s employ and was never “stolen.” I tired of Trump’s lies before the 2016 election. Not once in his life,...

It Is an Undeniable Fact that All “Republican” Politicians Are Cowards, Hypocrites, and the Worst of America

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart All “Republican” politicians are part of what makes America a far worse country than any other in the world. I have a long list of names which prove my allegation, but let me offer a few of the most obvious: Moscow Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Mike Johnson. None of these individuals care about you or me. Since 2017 they offered their loyalty to Trump and Vladimir Putin, ignoring the responsibilities they owe to the voters who made huge mistakes by surrendering to them their valuable votes: the only power average citizens possess. Yesterday a situation arose within the once Grand Old Party which proves that not a single man or woman on the right side of the aisle is worthy of occupying a seat in our federal government. Lindsey Graham has held a seat in the Senate since 2002. Normally, I would say that he “represented the people of South Carolina for the last 23 years.” However, in 2017, Graham abandoned his morals, integr...

Will Someone Have the Cojones in Washington to Stand up to the Bully in the White House?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Although it is true that Trump is, obese, suffering from mental and physical deficiencies, what is not is the definition of a ‘man.’ He possesses a single tactic as your illegitimate president. He attempts to bully his adversaries and leaders of other nations. Sadly, in several situations, he is succeeding. Universities, Law Firms, and Presidents, Prime Ministers, etc., are bowing to the schoolyard bully. The truth is defeating a bully requires little effort. All anyone must do is look in his eyes and say “no,” and “get the fuck out of my way.” Trump is a regressive, and those who look backwards are destined to fail. His entire six months and eight days as your illegitimate president have been focused on taking revenge against anyone who opposes his fascist agenda. “Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.” ― Confucius Trump, like he did in 2017-2021, will destroy himself, His malignant narcissism is far more powerful than what little mind he h...

The Illegitimate President Who Broke America

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Most of you are too young to remember my America: the country I loved and deserved my loyalty, respect, and trust. Sadly, that nation no longer exists, and I’m not sure if it will ever regain its position on the world’s stage. Humans are by far the weakest of all mammals. For the most part we are never happy with our personal situation. We want more, more, and more. We are also a lazy group. We look for someone else to do our work for us. John Adams: "Remember Democracy never lasts long". He further asserted that democracy "soon wastes exhausts and murders itself," and that "There never was a Democracy Yet, that did not commit suicide.” Abraham Lincoln: "if destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide" Abraham Lincoln: “We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to ...

Trump’s Racism and Bigotry Inspires Other World Leaders to Come “Out of their Closets”

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Fact: most of the world’s population is less involved in racism and bigotry than those who hate others for the color of their skin, their ethnicity, their choice of religion, their sex, their sexual orientation, or their economic status. However, at least 40 percent of all Americans support Trump’s position as the leader of the American Nazi Party. He began his war on the most vulnerable Americans on January 21, 2025. Trump and Elon Mush began firing men and women who need their jobs and were the only people in Washington who worked for a living. Hispanics are to Trump what the Jews were to Hitler. Trump ordered the illegal arrests and detainment of thousands of men, women, and children whose only crimes were seeking a better life like every immigrant before them who came to America. The truth you will neve hear on television is that Trump’s detainment, deportation, and the inhumane treatment they receive are in reality “ethnic cleansing.” Less than three ...

One of Trump’s Nazi Lieutenants Breaks Legal Procedure to Hide the Truth About Trump and Epstein

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I can’t stop talking about the Epstein story, and no one else can either, including Trump, his supporters and his propaganda machine, Fox News. I probably have a different reason for my interest in Trump’s lascivious past than most. I simply want justice. I want to see one professional politician be held accountable for his or her crimes. The current Deputy Attorney General is a man by the name of Todd Blanche. Few of you know him, unless you are like me and follow politics closely. Blanche was Trump’s personal attorney during what became a felony conviction in a New York court. It is clear that he has been charged by his Fuhrer to do everything possible to cover up his shared experiences with Jeffrey Epstein. Some of you know the name ‘Ghislaine Maxwell.’ She has many ‘labels,’ but the only accurate term is “procurer of young women for sexual gratification.” It was her job to recruit underage women for Epstein’s illicit sex parties in New York and on his ...

Claiming President Obama is a “Criminal?” This is the Laugh We All Need

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Before I begin, the truth. If hell freezes over, and President Obama was convicted of a crime related to the 2016 election, Trump’s Supreme Court has already given him immunity, although they intended their actions to exclusively benefit Trump. Okay, the facts. History proves that Barack Hussein Obama was not only the first Black President, he was the only President in modern history not to be accused of criminal actions, not investigated for an alleged scandal. Trump began his first full day in office in 2017 under investigation for multiple crimes against the American people and Constitutional violations. I’m not claiming that Obama was a perfect, or even a ‘great’ president, but he had my respect if not my trust. My complaints about him involve his lack of courage. There were several times when he could have informed the American people about corruption on the right side of aisle. However, he placed his party first, not the people of our country. One of those...

Trump’s Entire Second, Illegitimate Presidency is Focused Solely on Revenge, Hatred, Fascist Ideals, Racism and Bigotry

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is always fair to ask any professional politician one question: “what have you done for me lately?” They make promises during their campaigns they never intend to keep, and must suffer the consequences of those lies. No one has accomplished less than Donald John Trump, and no one has made more promises he never intended to keep. In 2020, Trump and Moscow Mitch McConnell broke rules they made in opposition to the intent of the Constitution, and completed stacking the Supreme Court with a  ‘super majority,’ six supporting the right-wing’s extremist policies and three performing their jobs as required by the Constitution; all women from ethnic backgrounds not considered “pure white,” in other words, “real Americans.” Trump sought reelection for two reasons, neither of which involves caring for 340 million people. First, he was desperate to remain a free, old man. His many crimes, including treason and violating the Espionage Act, were under scrutiny and faci...

Trump Proves Himself the Worst Possible Choice Last November, and the Most Expensive

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart $270,000 per hour: that’s what it costs to operate Air Force One. More than $23,000,000: that is the amount of taxpayer money Trump spent using Air Force One for his personal pleasure in a little more than six months: lumbering around a golf course and partying at Mar-a-Lago. This does not include multiple additional expenses paid for by taxpayers. The total cost could reach $35,000,000. How much will he cost America over the next 42 months? Trump is in Scotland: not on our nation’s business, but promoting and playing golf at his latest acquisition, another golf course. If this is not a violation of the Emoluments Clause, my reading comprehension must be slipping. This is another reason why he must be impeached for the third time. Over the last six months, Trump fired hundreds of government workers, removed healthcare from tens of millions of needy Americans, and continues to ignore growing inflation, the war in Ukraine, and other critical issues faced by 340 mi...

It’s Called the “Emoluments Clause” and Trump is Getting Away with Constitutional Violations Again

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Between 2017 and 2021, Congress, the DOJ, and a corrupted Supreme Court allowed Trump to violate the Emoluments Clause for 1,460 days. That’s every day he was your illegitimate president. Trump continued to maintain control of his personal business interests, both foreign and domestic. After four years, Trump’s business interests reported a 2.4 billion dollar profit. The problem is that no one cared that he was violating one of the oldest entries in the Constitution. The frame workers of the Constitution included the Emoluments Clause to prevent undo influence from businesses both foreign and domestic. No one, Democrats, or Republicans is concerned that Trump violates the Constitution every day he pretends to be your illegitimate president. “As the US president fires thousands in the name of preventing alleged fraud, he continues to spend taxpayer funds on his outings.” This is from the Guardian. Between 2017 and 2021, Trump used taxpayer money for his personal ...
