  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First, all we really need to confirm that Trump’s “Big Lie” is just that and evidence that the malignant narcissist cannot accept the fact that he is the world’s biggest loser. Trump not only lost the 2020 election, he got his ass kicked by the real American people. The margin of victory for Mr. Biden was enormous, and the turnout was the largest in our nation’s history. [Biden won the election with 306 electoral votes and 51.3% of the national popular vote, compared to Trump's 232 electoral votes and 46.9% of the popular vote.] In the popular vote, Mr. Biden received nearly eight million more votes than the orange buffoon. This should be enough to convince anyone with less than average intelligence that Trump is a liar, and a sore loser. DON’T BELIEVE THE FACTS? BELIEVE THE COURTS Trump’s incompetent attorneys, led by recently indicted former New York Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, filed more than 60 requests alleging election interference in the 2020

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In 2024, the world’s population is 8,019,876,189. Of course this is an estimate. There is no possible way that every nation can accurately report its population, including the United States. I helped in conducting the 2010 Decennial Census, and I know this for a fact. However, I can offer one irrefutable fact: not a single person in this world of ours can claim to be 100 percent mentally healthy. Human beings suffer mental illness, some more than others. To deny this is to deny historical fact. Our minds are not always clear and logical. Every day we question everything, including ourselves. The truth is that anyone who believes they are without mental deficiency is batshit crazy. WHY AM I WRITING ABOUT THIS? My point is simple and undeniable. Unless you live with someone, you don’t know them, and even then, it is a well-known fact that husbands and wives often keep secrets from one another. My purpose is also simple and based on fact. Do not believe

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is an irrefutable fact that Trump is a malignant narcissist who cannot accept criticism and most definitely losing, although he has never won anything through his own efforts or merits in his lifetime. Therefore, it was not a big surprise when Trump became the only president who refused to accept a peaceful transfer of power, although he was soundly defeated by Joe Biden. Two Democrats had Valid Reasons to Contest Their Losses In 2000 Al Gore had a valid reason to contest the results which gave George W. Bush the presidency. He won the popular vote. However, the Electoral College Vote would be decided by Florica voters. After a number of irregularities, a recount was ordered in several key counties. Then came an announcement from the Supreme Court that ended the recount. Each state has the right to conduct the process in elections. The Court ignored the Constitution and handed George W. Bush the presidency. In 2016 a meeting was held in the Oval O

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   If you believe that Fox News is legitimate, bringing their audience facts about current events from around the world, you are making a choice, allowing yourself to be brainwashed. The truth is, Fox was created by Rupert Murdoch in 1996 for two purposes: increase advertising revenue by any means possible, and to become a propaganda machine for right-wing extremists. Their original primetime personalities included one man and one woman who apparently had credentials offering them an opportunity to claim the title of “journalist.” However, after the Roger Ailes scandal, related to sexual harassment and assault, Megyn Kelly resigned. Later it was discovered that their most successful host, Bill O’Reilly, has falsified the contents of his books, and also engaged in actions making him a sexual predator, he was forced to resign his lucrative position. Today, there is only one legitimate journalist on Fox. Bre Baier will never be allowed to report in primetime. The tr

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Trump’s disgusting and destructive four years attempting to destroy democracy resulted in a record and historical voter turnout in 2020. It is an irrefutable fact that voters were more concerned with removing Trump from the White House than supporting Joe Biden. However, I am as surprised as anyone that Mr. Biden has been a very good leader, the opposite of his predecessor. The next presidential election is just over 11 months away. If the nominees are Trump and Biden, I predict another historical election. 2024 will have the lowest voter turnout in modern history, and because the number of voters will minimal, Trump will become our nation's first fascist dictator. Nobody should be forced to chose between two men who are 78 and 81 years old when the average age of our nation is 38.2 years. I will be 78 next July, and if forced to make a choice between these two old men, I would vote for the octogenarian, although I would not be happy. Physically, and menta

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Okay, let’s be honest, no one else appears willing to do so. Dozens, if not hundreds of men and women who have pretended to be public servants in the House or Senate have been batshit crazy and totally incompetent, unworthy of serving in the government of the United States. A significant number of these enemies of the American people have been sexual predators and criminals. The list varies. Political bias hides the truth all too frequently. However, the facts remain. If we focus only on the most infamous politicians who were removed from office or charged for their felonious activities, we would be focusing only on the likes of Newt Gingrich, Dennis Hastert, and earlier villains including Spiro Agnew, Nixon’s first Vice-President, and Ted Stevens, Republican Senator from Alaska, who is infamous for his “bridge to nowhere.” When politics is involved, corruption and perversion are expected. “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” No
