President Biden, President Elect Donald Trump, and former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton attended Jimmy Carter’s funeral on Thursday. One of them was unwelcome. According to several attendees at the event, Trump and third wife Melania were shunned by the Bidens, the Obamas, the Bush’s and the Clintons most of the time. If this surprises you, I don’t understand why. Trump has verbally attacked each of them on at least one occasion. I don’t think a single person who has ever met Trump likes him. In fact, he is the most hated man on the planet. Not one person I speak with regularly would enjoy having Trump in their presence at any time. He is a crude, rude, old man who demands absolute attention from others and has never shown empathy or even respect for anyone else in his pitiful life. Respect must be earned, and there is not a single occasion when Trump’s words or actions offered a reason why he should be respected. In my humble estimation, if someone is not r...

Trump has the right to celebrate several ‘firsts;’ firsts I am sure will never be repeated. Trump is the oldest man ever to be elected to the presidency. The truth is that during the 2024 campaign he displayed the fact that he is too old and mentally unfit for the office. Few Americans are informed citizens. One thing every American should be aware of is that the average age of all 330+ million Americans is 38.2 years of age. Anyone who is under the age of 55, and voted for Trump made a choice to be without representation in Washington.

In 2023/2024, the orange con man was charged with 99 felony indictments, including insurrection and theft of government secrets in violation of the Espionage Act. Trump is the first president to lose a defamation of character case, which revealed the fact that he is a confirmed sexual predator. It was recently revealed t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is the first man to “accomplish” several things in America’s nearly 248 years. Hopefully, no one will be the second person to constantly violate the Constitution and embarrass our nation. Trump was the first person in his party to seek the Republican Party’s presidential nomination without experience in any form of government and no verifiable proof that he ever worked in any profession for a single day in 77 years. He was also the first alleged draft dodger to believe he could gain the support of right-wing voters who generally favor war over peace. Trump was the first presidential candidate to win a major party’s nomination without taking a position on a single issue. Trump won by lying to voters, and hurling personal attacks against his rivals. He failed to receive the support of 90 percent of his party’s leaders. THE ILLEGITIMATE ELECTION OF 2016 Trump was losing in the polls prior to November 8, 2016. However, our government received verified informat...
