Compared to Trump, Joe Biden has been the Greatest President in History

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

 

President Biden’s accomplishments are many: far more than his three predecessors. However, he would never be called “the greatest president who every served,” unless he is compared to Donald Trump.

Not only did Trump accomplish nothing, not a single positive thing, in four years, he divided our nation and finally, just weeks before his expulsion from the White House, attempted to overthrow our government.

Tom Cotton, Ted Cruz, Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Greene and all of the “MAGA Republicans,” who can also be labeled “The American Fascist Party,” or “The American Nazi Party,” continue to blame the President for our government’s failures to solve our nation’s biggest problems. However, a little civics lesson for these ignorant men and women: it is the right and duty of congress to create and pass legislation, not the executive branch. Mr. Biden can either sign the bills into law, or veto them. Healthcare, Immigration reform, the ridiculously high cost of education, escalating racism, and the suppression of voting rights are serious problems which have been ignored by right-wing politicians since January of 2009. They also refuse to raise the minimum wage, repair social security, protect women from violence, and address the increase in domestic terrorism and the mass shootings which accompany their crimes.

Therefore, it should be no surprise that the Senator from Arkansas who proved himself a traitor just weeks after his election, is supporting Trump in 2024. Tom Cotton made this ludicrous statement on Wednesday, proving that he has no idea how government works.

“When Donald Trump was president, America was safe, strong, and prosperous,” the endorsement read. “The economy was booming, working-class wages were growing, our border was secure, and our enemies feared us. With Joe Biden as president, everything has gone to hell.”

Of course this is completely false. Trump nearly placed our nation in a depression when he failed to address the seriousness of the pandemic. “It will just go away” didn’t work very well. More than one million Americans lost their lives, and the economy crashed. Any economic successes between 2017 and 2021 were the result of programs put in place by President Obama.

If turning over our nation’s secrets to Vladimir Putin made us safer, I demand Cotton explain this to me. The census revealed that working-class wages have declined steadily since the Reagan administration in the 1980s. The borders were less secure. When he stole funding from other agencies to build just a few feet of his wall, they were destroyed or crumbled on their own. This was his only “effort,” and, as he has on every occasion, he failed miserably. As for our enemies and our friends, they all laughed at us between January of 2017 and January of 2021.

Let’s get to the truth. Our nation, specifically our federal government, is corrupt and totally incompetent in 2023 thanks to the “party of no,” created by Moscow Mitch McConnell in January of 2009. Those who call themselves “Republicans” have done nothing positive for the last 14 years. By supporting Trump they offer us proof that they have no interest in doing the job for which they were elected: to serve the American people and improve the quality of their lives.

I am ashamed of my country. All countries are composed of people. The government buildings and those who we elect to serve them in are tools to be used by the people. Unfortunately, they have chosen to rule over us for personal gain. When I say I’m ashamed of my country, I am talking about my fellow citizens. They are ignorant or choose to be ignorant in the 21st century. The have no idea what is happening in the United States of America today. We are engaged in the Second Civil War. The Combatants are MAGA Republicans vs loyal and patriotic Americans such as this 77-year-old-man.

If we lose this war, the dream of our founding fathers will fade into our memories, never to be seen again.

Vote, and vote wisely. All political parties are composed of liars and are dangerous to your future. Only Independents make wise and unbiased decisions.

The Real Victims in the Trump Saga

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s defense strategy has changed, slightly. He claims that all of his legal battles are founded in political strategy, created by his enemies. He is playing the role of a victim. I guess part of Trump’s decline in mental acuity is a severe loss of memory. He appears to forget that many of the crimes he is accused of began long before he made the mistake of seeking the presidency. Others, including his insurrection on January 6, and stolen classified documents are actions witnessed by every American. We are not falling for your bullshit, Donnie Boy. THE REAL VICTIMS A brief look at Trump’s history reveals a life of crime. From bribing public officials, and refusing to pay contractors, to allegations of physical, sexual assault, the orange buffoon left a long trail of victims. As your illegitimate president, he violated the basic human rights of thousands. According to medical experts, Trump’s failure to take timely action to prevent an oncom...

Aileen Cannon: A Corrupt Judge Appointed by a Lifelong Criminal

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Aileen Cannon is a federal judge, appointed by Donald Trump. She has been charged with one of the most important cases involving Trump’s life of crime; his theft of classified documents when he was evicted from the White House on January 20, 2021. Yesterday she gave Trump a gift by delaying his upcoming trial. The events which followed prove that he violated the Espionage Act of 1917. He is also guilty of lying to the FBI, a federal crime. Before the raid on Mar-a-Lago, when they discovered boxes of national secrets hidden throughout the millionaire’s playpen, he claimed that he had returned all of them. TRUMP AND HIS SUPPORTERS: LIES, MISDIRECTION, BASELESS ATTACKS You might have noticed that Trump, his failed party, and his supporters constantly lie about everything. There is undeniable proof that the only attempted fraud in the 2020 election can be attributed to Trump supporters. The 91 indictments against Trump are not a “witch hunt:” I have ...

Lindsey Graham has Become a Whiny Little Bitch

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Before Senator John McCain’s death in 2018, Lindsey Graham was a somewhat rational man. It seems that the Senator from Arizona kept the little man from South Carolina in line, and influenced him to do the right thing most of the time. However, almost immediately after Senator McCain lost his battle with cancer, Graham began to offer his allegiance to the man his closest friend despised. I will always wonder why? Senator McCain was a man with principles and integrity. Trump is a man filled with hatred and cares only for himself. The reality is that Graham is now a man without morals who supports a man he knows is opposed to everything loyal Americans like John McCain stood for. A CORRUPT SUPREME COURT, FIVE MEN AND FOUR WOMEN, COULD BRING AN END TO THE DREAM OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS No sane human being can deny that just before the 2020 election Moscow Mitch McConnell stacked the Supreme Court with three additional justices who are politically bias...
