Trump’s Very, Very Bad Decisions
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
No one in history has made more bad decisions than Donald
John Trump.
After working in his father’s real estate business for
several years, Fred Trump gave his son multiple properties whose estimated
worth was $413 million dollars in the early 1970’s. However, they were not in
Manhattan. Trump sold those successful buildings and invested in what he
dreamed of. First, big mistake.
Without investments from Russian oligarchs and the Saudi
Royal Family, Trump would have been penniless in the 1990’s.
Trump was unfit to be involved in any legitimate business.
His only choice, another bad decision, was to cheat on his taxes and lie about information
on loan applications to save his failing empire.
TRUMP’S CHOICE TO BECOME INVOLVED IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR
In June of 2015, Trump stood before the television cameras
inside Trump Tower and announced his intention to win the Republican Party’s
2016 presidential nomination. Another big mistake.
Although he defeated the other 16 members in the clown car
during the primary season, by August of 2016, his campaign was broke.
Ted Cruz had withdrawn. Tech billionaire, Robert Mercer,
moved his money, spin doctor Kellyanne Conway, and campaign manager, Steve
Bannon, into Trump’s camp.
With the aid of Vladimir Putin and Mercer, Trump won his
first rigged election. This was America’s biggest mistake. Every elected
official in Washington knew the truth, but allowed Trump to be inaugurated on
January 20, 2017.
This dark day in America’s history allowed Trump to make his
biggest and most disgusting mistakes.
IN JUST MONTHS, TRUMP PROVED HE WILL ALWAYS BE KNOWN AS THE
WORST PRESIDENT IN AMERICAN HISTORY
Immediately after his illegitimate inauguration, and knowing
that six members of a corrupt Supreme Court were loyal to him, and that he
would always have the protection of Moscow Mitch McConnell, Trump ignored the
Constitution and made his own illegal and immoral rules. Remember, he was
impeached for cause twice.
Between 2017 his bad decisions became the norm. Trump
completely removed Democrats from participating in the governance of our
nation. His fascist policies removed Constitutional rights from true and loyal
Americans. His most harmful decision was to ignore the coming health emergency
in December of 2019. Covid-19 took the lives of more than one million
Americans, and placed our nation in the direction of a second Great Depression,
as he continued to claim, “it will just go away.”
But he wasn’t finished making horrific decisions which will
continue to harm America forever.
After he was badly beaten in the 2020 election, he made
another bad decision. He decided to make one last effort to remain in power.
Trump met with aids and by video with leaders of our
nation’s Neo-Nazi movement at the Willard Hotel. His purpose? To plan and organize
a coup. The date would be January 6, 2021, when Congress was in session to
certify the Electoral College vote.
On that day, he marched to a hastily constructed podium and
instructed his fascist army to march to the Capitol Building and halt the
proceedings. He ordered them to capture and kill Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi.
My wife and I watched the darkest day in American history, all three hours of
the violent insurrection.
When he was evicted from the White House on January 20, he
made another decision to violate the Espionage Act with the theft of 14 boxes
of national secrets.
BIDEN RETURNS HOPE AND NORMALCY TO THE WHITE HOUSE
Although Joe Biden displayed the fact that he was a working
president by immediately creating a plan to distribute the Covid-19 vaccine,
the jealous, fat, old man who was soundly defeated in the 2020 election
continued to lie and disrupt our nation.
Trump was put on trial in New York. He was charged with
falsifying New York business records in order to conceal his illegal scheme to
corrupt the 2016 election. Guilty on all 34 counts. He is a convicted felon,
but will never be punished for his crimes.
In 2024, several states decided to remove Trump’s name from
their ballots. They claimed that the 14th Amendment prevented Trump
from running for any public office. They were correct.
However, six corrupt and biased members of the Supreme Court
forced these states to place Trump’s name on their ballots, claiming that the
14th Amendment did not apply to Trump.
As they did in 2000, the SCOTUS was taking control of our
presidential election. Huge mistake.
During the 2024 campaign, Trump made two criminal decisions.
He encouraged Elon Musk to give him millions of dollars, and participate in the
campaign although history proved that he was a member of South Africa’s Nazi
Party.
Once again he accepted assistance from his puppeteer,
Vladimir Putin. According to several of America’s most respected tech
companies. Putin and Musk funded multiple hackers to take control of the voting
machines in all seven swing states.
A LIST OF TRUMP’S POOR DECISIONS SINCE JANUARY 20, 2025
Trump has pretended to be your president for the last 15+
months. During that short period of time, the orange buffoon continued to make
unwise and destructive decisions.
Trump decided to select his cabinet and leaders of several
critical government agencies from a list of men and women who displayed loyalty
to him, exclusively. None of them had or has a single qualification for his or
her position.
Recently he fired his poor choices for Attorney General, Pam
Bondi, and for the head of the Department of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem.
Hopefully, HHS Director, Robert Kennedy Jr., and Secretary of Defense, Pete
Hegseth, will be next.
Against the advice of America’s leading economists, the
failed businessman decided to place tariffs on nearly every nation in the
world. The harm he caused affects every man, woman, and child on the planet.
Most recently, he, alone, declared war on the sovereign
nation of Iran. On February 28, 2026, Trump and the cowardly leaders inside of
the Pentagon began bombarding Iran with Tomahawk Cruise Missiles. Trump’s War
continues today. This very bad decision is costing American taxpayers more than
one billion dollars each day. So much for lowering the national debt.
WHY TRUMP IS FAILING MISERABLY, AGAIN
Trump has proven that he is poorly educated, has no knowledge
about government and how to serve 340 million people, and he doesn’t care. The
orange buffoon is unfit to hold any public office.
Voters make mistakes. The two greatest in my lifetime happened
on November 8, 2016, and November 5, 2024. Trump never should have been allowed
to become your president.
Not one decision in his life has resulted in positive
results. Trump’s ambitions are totally focused on himself and no one else.
