I Have Learned Many Things in 79 Years, Donny Dictator Has Not, Will not, and Cannot
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
Donny Dictator grew up in a different ‘America’ than yours
truly. He was born into a very wealthy family in New York. I grew up poor in
West Los Angeles.
However, our biggest differences involved what we were
taught with words and by example as we grew and became young men.
Trump remained in a world of white privilege, while I learned
about the real America shared by the majority. I worked hard for everything I
have: my education, my home, and my family.
Donny Boy was exposed to racism and bigotry from the time he
could walk. His father taught him that he was more important, and smarter than
anyone else.
I was raised by a single mother and my maternal
grandparents. They taught me to respect others, regardless of their ethnicity,
the color of their skin, or their economic status. I was taught to be humble
but confident in my personal abilities.
Trump’s entire world was about becoming wealthy and
relevant. He learned nothing about what happens in the real America shared by
the majority.
By the age of 16, I learned that there are two Americas, or
more. Trump believes there is only one: the one for the super-rich whites who do
literally anything to maintain their power and status.
The real Donny Dictator exposed himself over the last 10
years. No one with great intelligence finds it necessary to brag about that
fact to others. Trump’s intellect is minimal at best. He cannot, or will not
read. He cannot speak in coherent sentences. These facts prove that he did not
earn his diploma from Wharton. I have no doubt that “Daddy” paid for his degree
as he paid for his deferments preventing him from serving in the Vietnam War.
Intelligent people learn from their mistakes. This is the primary
reason why we study history in school. This fact is becoming one of the most
dangerous problems in America. Trump, DeSantis, and every other fake
Republican, turned Nazi, is attempting to remove any information about our nation’s
problem with racism, bigotry, misogyny, and xenophobia.
I have a tidbit of information to tell them: Black,
Hispanics, Asians, and all other races, all of our many ethnicities, the LGBTQ
community, and women are here to stay. Get used to it.
All religions must be respected: none is of greater value
than another. Being rich or poor should not separate us. Economic status is a
condition, and should not divide us.
However, Trump and his oligarchs are currently in control of
our lives, our future. This must change immediately. We can win as long as we
have the right to vote.
Trump and his Nazi Party are the enemies of democracy and
therefore the enemies of all real Americans.
Who are you? Do you love America or do you choose to serve
Trump?
