In the Dictionary, When You Find the Word “Corrupt,” You Will See Five Letters Next to It: “SCOTUS”

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Today, six members of the Supreme Court of the United States are right-wing extremists who support the fascist policies of their Fuhrer, Donald John Trump.

Our Founding Fathers were not perfect: they made many mistakes. These mistakes were the result of their mistaken belief that their successors would improve what they began. They underestimated the faults of mortal men and their desires for money and power.

The only reason for giving Supreme Court Justices lifetime appointments was to prevent them from becoming politicized. They believed that if they were not required to run for reelection, they would remain impartial. They were greatly mistaken, as we can all testify to today.

America’s government is a system of checks and balances. The three branches, executive, legislative, and judicial, were given ‘separate but equal powers.’

However, in 2025 the executive and judicial branches are abusing their powers, while the legislative branch is doing nothing, with the exception of playing politics with our nation’s future.

Trump kept his only campaign promise: he has become a fascist dictator. He is not an American and must be impeached and tried for treason.

The legislative branch continues the singular policy created by Moscow Mitch McConnell: do nothing.

Republicans are a party of obstructionists. The federal government is shutdown. However the democratically elected men and women in all three branches of government continue to receive full pay and benefits although they fail to accomplish anything of value. Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, refuses to convene the House for political reasons, and to prevent the release of Jeffrey Epstein’s personal files, which very likely contain the name of his “best friend.”

In October of 2020, in violation of his own rule, Moscow Mitch completed his effort to stack the Supreme Court with extremists who support Trump’s vile and destructive actions contained in his fascist manifesto, Project 2025.

The only purpose for a Supreme Court is simple. They have sworn to protect the Constitution by ensuring that every law and rule existing in our country is aligned with the intentions of the Law of the Land.

Six of the nine justices currently on the bench are abusing their powers and knowingly violate the Constitution they swore to protect. They are writing and rewriting laws, guaranteeing success for Trump and his evil and destructive plans for America’s future.

The truth is simple. If Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett had followed the rules and protected the 14th Amendment, Trump would not have been on the ballot in 2024. However, these six traitors illegally gave Trump absolute immunity for his many crimes, past and present.

Trump has become their demagogue.

The end of democracy in America is near. All three branches of our government have been corrupted by Nazis who hate the country of our Founding Fathers.

In the late 1940’s and early 1950’s, I was a small child, living in the city of my birth, Lewiston, Idaho. I was present during all family gatherings. I heard my grandfather and my uncles, who had returned from WWII, talking about our government. I didn’t understand most of it, but I do remember terms like “useless,” “unfit,” “stupid,” and “incompetent.” I also remember one of my uncle’s remarks: “Democrats and Republicans are all the same.”

Today, I understand. However, the two parties have no common denominators in the 21st century.

One fact is undeniable: both parties have moved farther to the right since the end of WWII. Democrats are similar to the Republican Party of the 1950’s. However, Republicans have moved so far to the right they resemble the leaders of nations the Allies defeated in the War.

Why has this happened? Political writers offer volumes attempting to explain how Trump came to be the worst president in history: and even worse the second time around.

However, the truth is simple and irrefutable. One of the greatest evils shared by men throughout history is a desire to possess power over others. With great power comes great wealth and a life composed of luxury, privilege, and the inevitable, debauchery.

Trump is the greatest example of this illness in the 21st century. It is abundantly clear that he has been afflicted with a mental disorder known as malignant narcissism for his entire adult life.

Once again, I offer you the definition. Every word applies to Donald John Trump.

[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.]

This applies to Trump, his party’s leaders, and six members of the most corrupt Supreme Court in history.
