Above All, Never Forget the Darkest Day in American History

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart My wife and I were watching something on television on January 6, 2021 when the broadcast was interrupted. We watched as your illegitimate president stood on a hastily constructed platform and addressed his “people.” An apparently all white crowd holding Trump banners, and wearing his ridiculous red hats cheered as he began to speak. He told the ignorant crowd that the 2020 election was buried in fraud, and that he had won the election. Therefore, he commanded them to march to the Capitol Building and halt the certification of the Electoral College vote in any way possible. Then he told them that he would be with them, but quickly marched back into the safety of the White House. For the next three hours we watched in horror as an angry and murderous crowd smashed windows and doors, struggling with the Capitol Police to enter the chambers where our legislative branch was in session. We heard chants of “let’s get Pence,” and the same for Speaker Nancy Pelosi. We w

My Second Letter to the American People

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   In 2016 , I wrote my first “Letter to the American People.” I warned every eligible voter about the dange rous and likely disastrous possibility of Donald Trump becoming our 45 th president.   Most Americans paid attention. He lost to Hillary Clinton in the popular vote by three million. However, interference by Russian agents, following orders from Vladimir Putin, he received the Electoral College vote and became our country’s first illegitimate president.   WHAT AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT MUST NOT BE   Donald John Trump is a man without morals or principles. His life’s story is built on lies and misconception s . Much of the damage for which he is responsible between 2017 and 2021 is irreparable. He must not be given four more years to complete his orders to destroy the nation of our Founding Fathers.   Thursday’s decision by a jury of his peers in a federal court revealed to everyone the extent of his debauchery, lack of a moral compass, and his absence of

An Embarrassing First for America: A Convicted Felon is the Choice of the Republican Party

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First, let me say that May 30, 2024 will be remembered as one of the most American days in our nation’s nearly 248-year history. Trump’s conviction on all counts proved that no one is above the law. This was a day when equality became a reality. However, yesterday will also be at the top of the list of most embarrassing days in American history. It will be matched with November 8, 2016, when Trump was gifted the Electoral College in a rigged election, and our government knew about the efforts of Vladimir Putin but did nothing. Millions of ignorant voters chose the least qualified candidate in history who openly indicates that he hates America. LET’S GET TO THE PART WHICH WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH, MAYBE Here’s a fact which is very difficult to believe. Trump’s failed party will continue to support him. Those morons who supported Trump prior to his conviction will continue to support him. His name will be on ballots in 50 states. If he wins, the leader of our nation wi
