For 10 Years I have Tried, Really Tried, but I Can’t Do It

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Trump is the worst person in the world. He hates his own country, and continues to seek revenge against anyone who offered even the slightest criticism of his words and actions.

However, I began researching Trump’s life over 10 years ago, a few weeks before he attempted to make a grand entrance inside Trump Tower to declare his intent to win the Republican Party’s presidential nomination.

Like anyone else who researched and wrote about Washington in the 21st century, I found it humorous, and never thought that the least qualified person in the world would become the leader of 330 million people.

I underestimated the level of ignorance and hatred possessed by most Republican voters. The orange buffoon easily won most of the 2015-2016 primaries, defeating 16 poorly qualified men and women, but would have been better choices than the driver of the clown car.

The truth is, he did not win with ideas about how to solve our nation’s problems, he won with personal assaults and blatant lies about his opponents.

Not during the campaign, but after his illegitimate victory on November 8, 2016, I began my search to find something, anything positive about Trump over his 70 years on earth. Raised by my grandparents, I was taught to always find the ‘good’ in anyone.

I couldn’t find what I was looking for, but I did find a history of criminal activity, large and small, and an attitude which revealed his life’s philosophy: “fuck everyone else, my personal pleasure is the only thing that is important.”

When 75 of the world’s most respected psychiatrists signed a letter revealing Trump’s problem with mental illness, it all began to make sense. This disease prevented him from thinking clearly and with the intent of accomplishing something of value. It’s called “malignant narcissism.” The definition accurately describes the Donald John Trump I see and know today.

[In the popular conception, malignant narcissism is a form of narcissistic personality disorder that is highly abusive. People with this personality supposedly get a sense of satisfaction from hurting others and may manipulate people or lie to gain money, acclaim, and other things they desire.

[Campbell’s Psychiatric Dictionary suggests that malignant narcissism includes traits of narcissistic personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder. Narcissistic personality disorder   Trusted Source causes a person to seek constant acclaim and admiration, often by whatever means necessary. It also includes elements of antisocial personality disorder, which causes a person to engage in harmful, and sometimes criminal, behavior.]

Trump’s stacked Supreme Court gave him absolute immunity for his many crimes, big and small, including treason and violating the Espionage Act.

Today, knowing that he is above the law, including the Constitution, he is systematically destroying the very fabric of what made America a nation which might someday have become the greatest nation in the world.

Oh, by the way, he is destroying nearly one-half of the people’s White House without permission. Donny Destucto is the worst thing to happen to America in 249 years.

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 ...

“The Economy is in ‘Pretty Good Shape?’”

Image
Bessent is not quite a billionaire, yet, but he is a perfect example of how ignorant Trump’s administration is. Scott Bessent is Trump’s unqualified Treasury Secretary. He is not one of the billionaires on Trump’s cabinet, but he is worth 521 million dollars. This one fact prevents the old, white man from understanding what it is to be a real American in the 21 st century. What they're saying: "There is a little uncertainty, but in general, the companies I've spoken to, CEOs, who have come into Treasury tell me that the economy is very solid," Bessent said at a conference hosted by the American Bankers Association. Really? Nobody asked me. I can offer you one fact, one example of how ignorant this Trump stooge actually is. My wife and I worked for about 40 years each. We chose our professions badly. The only retirement income we have is what we paid for: our Social Security. In January we received a 2.5 percent increase in our monthly checks. However, the cost of nec...
