When Fascism Came to America, It Was Hugging a Flag, Selling Bibles, and Wearing a Cheap Toupee

Image
Rules are broken. The Constitution is a list of rules, promises, and guarantees. However, Trump violated the Constitution every day between 2017 and 2021 and congress nor the Supreme Court did anything to punish our nation’s biggest traitor. Recently exposed is Trump’s plan to employ Hitler’s use of Germany’s military to destroy the lives of an entire race of people he despises. Hitler waged a personal war against the Jewish people. Trump will use our nation’s military to complete his promise of Hispanic mass deportation and possible genocide almost immediately after January 20 th . They voted in large numbers for the orange buffoon and will now suffer for their stupidity. I have labeled Trump a fascist for more than a decade, and he continues to prove my allegations. It is now an undeniable fact the fascism arrived in the White House on January 20, 2017. It was in the form of an obese, old, white man who loved to hug the flag, sold bibles to enhance his personal wealth, and continues

Abraham Lincoln Was Right on the Money

Image
Our 16 th President was a “seer.” In 1838 he predicted America in the 21 st century. [In a January 1838 speech to a group in Springfield, Illinois, Lincoln stated: "At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."] On November 5 th , the American people made their choice, and the choice is clear: the majority prefer an end to democracy and the establishment of fascism in America. I doubt that 75 percent of the men and women who voted for Trump were aware of the truth, and were unaware of Trump’s plans for the destruction of our nation. America has the least informed citizens in the world. The truth is, none of this matters now. America’s people have surrendered their freedoms to Putin’s Puppet. The media and the most corrupt poli

If You Thought Our Government Was F**ked Up Before, You Ain’t Seen Nothin Yet

I am not alone. There are millions of patriotic Americans who knew that a second Trump presidency would be more destructive and disastrous than the first. He hasn’t been sworn in yet, which is a waste of time because taking the oath will be another huge lie, and he is attacking our democracy and our security today. Trump’s decisions are moronic, and scare the hell out of me.   His choices for advisors, including his cabinet, in his first long, long four years occasionally spent in the White House were outrageous. However, his new list must be a practical joke. They are so ridiculous and so unfit that even some Republicans are questioning the decision-making ability of the old man who will be farting in the White House. Trump has begun putting in place the tools which will ensure his ability to implement the plans contained in his Project 2025, the newest Nazi Manifesto. The damage he will cause to our nation’s future is irreparable. America will be forever changed, and not for the bett

Celebrities Have a Huge Reason to Involve Themselves in our Elections: Trump has an Entire Propaganda Machine on Television

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Late night talk show host, Jimmy Kimmel, spent 19 minutes offering factual information to Trump supporters. He offered multiple reasons why they cannot trust the very old, very obese buffoon. Unfortunately for the popular host, Trump supporters choose to be ignorant and reject facts. A true Trump supporter spends hours each day watching the right-wing propaganda machine, calling itself “Fox News.” It has never been about the news and definitely not about facts. A loyal Trump supporter will never read or watch any information source which refuses to praise the con man. When confronted with the truth, their response is universal: “I don’t believe that.” The truth frightens them. If Trump can use a 24-hour television network to support his lies, Jimmy Kimmel and other talk show hosts are justified in finding ways to make their viewers laugh about Trump’s moronic and fallacious words and actions. Trump would like everything his way. However, this is a fantasy. Trump

“If it Walks Like a Duck and Quacks Like a Duck, It’s a Duck”

If he Talks Like a Fascist and Acts Like a Fascist, He’s a Fascist Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Adolf Hitler was given control of Germany in 1933. He and his Nazi Party were fascists who literally brainwashed an entire nation into believing that they would revive Germany’s economy and lead their nation to a new level of “greatness.” They sacrificed their freedoms and surrendered their basic human rights to a demagogue. All rational thoughts disappeared as Hitler’s propaganda machine convinced an entire country that everything he said was fact and that his orders must be obeyed. Sound familiar? Last Sunday Trump held another hate rally, this time in Madison Square Garden. The event featured six hours of crude and racist rhetoric, and has been compared to a rally supporting Hitler’s fascist beliefs in 1939. Trump’s “people” are denying the undeniable: Trump is a Nazi and would stablish a fascist regime if he is elected. Men who were members of his White House staff between 2017 and 2021 confi

Trump Cannot Tell the Truth Because the Truth is His Greatest Fear

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Over the last nine years, anyone who follows politics and political figures knows that if Trump or his cronies said it, it was a lie. Desperate to win the 2024 election, Trump’s television ads have become more vicious, composed of more outrageous lies than ever before, and if you know the facts are so fallacious they are almost hilarious. I believed that his biggest lie would always be his baseless claims that he won the 2020 election. However, with election day just one week away, his whoppers have reached a level never attained by great imaginations like Walt Disney or Stephen Kiing. Over the last nine years, every plan for our nation’s future in the fascist manifesto, “Project 2025,” originated at one of Trump’s hate rallies. His supporters simply compiled his beliefs into a 922-page document designed to destroy the country I have cherished for 78 years. Trump told one of his biggest lies when he claimed that he knows nothing about it. Last Sund

Comparing Trump and Kamala Harris

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If ever there were two more opposite presidential candidates in American history, I don’t remember who they might have been. The first comparison is clear: Trump is not loyal to America; Kamala Harris is a patriot who supports the Constitution. If this fails to help you decide who should receive your precious vote, I offer more. Trump is a lifetime criminal and sexual predator, recently convicted of 34 felonies. Harris prosecuted criminals and made California safer for everyone. Trump failed to continue the economic recovery begun by President Obama, and after his failure to lead America in the fight against Covid-19, another depression was in sight as the unemployment rate soared. Harris and Biden rebuilt our economy to a level not seen since the Clinton administration. Inflation is in steep decline. Nations around the world fear another Trump presidency. Harris and Biden have reestablished a close relationship with our allies. NATO has become stronger over the

Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg: Three Reasons Why Americans Hate Billionaires

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Fascism and the current plutocracy. America’s dirty, little secret. Thanks to today’s fake Republican Party, the United States of America is in the control of less than one percent of our nation’s population: billionaires. A country controlled by the rich is called a plutocracy. The dirty little secret is that a plutocracy cannot be maintained without complete control over a nation’s future: this is called fascism. A large percentage of Americans hate billionaires. They have many good reasons to feel such strong emotions. They created greedflation, and support the worst, least-qualified, obese, old man in the world and his return to the White House. Three of these depraved, greedy men choose to place themselves in positions of notoriety, and therefore scrutiny, are Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk. All social media sites are more harmful than beneficial. What was once the era of information has become the era of misinformation thanks to the

The Truth Hurts: He is Definitely a Fascist

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The GOP is whining because after Trump’s former Chief of Staff, John Kelly, confirmed his appraisal of his former boss as a definition of the term “fascist,” Kamala Harris agreed. The truth hurts. One of their facetious claims is that it could encourage another assassination attempt on their former president. I remain skeptical about the credibility of the first two. I have never read an explanation for one legitimate question: where did the bullet go after it allegedly struck Trump in the ear? Did he use the professional wrestler’s trick of using a razorblade to cut his own ear? Trump’s own words prove that he is a Neo-Nazi. Fascism: “a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition.” Trump’s stacked Supreme Court made all of this possible. Trump’s plans for America’s future contained in Project 2025, are a compilation of Tru

Hitler, Putin, Trump: Three Men Whose Fascist Plans Harmed Millions

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Project 2025 and Trump are linked forever. Every proposal in the 922-page document has been promised by Trump during his vile and vicious hate rallies. Every plan in the document is based on the precepts of fascism. I have accurately called Trump a “fascist” for more than nine years. I am now joined by many of the men and women who know him best. Retired Marine Corp General John Kelly was Trump’s Chief of Staff. He was asked about Trump’s agenda for 2024. “Well, looking at the definition of fascism: It’s a far-right authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy,” Kelly said. “So certainly, in my experience, those are the kinds of things that he thinks would work better in terms of running America.” General Mark Milley was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump’s failed administration.

Are You Willing to Accept a President Who Worships our Nation’s and the World’s Greatest Enemy?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart An article in Politico revealed that one of Trump’s biggest lies in 2016 when asked about his relationship with Vladimir Putin, claiming: “I never met the man.” The truth is that Trump and first wife, Ivana, were invited to Moscow in 1987 by the KGB. During that period, Vladimir Putin was a powerful leader in the spy organization. The two men have been in contact continuously since that meeting, 37 years ago. He called Putin frequently while pretending to be your president. Long after Trump was evicted from the White House, a Senate committee confirmed that there was collusion between Trump and Putin during the 2016 election. 2024 is the third election involving Donald Trump, and the third election in which Putin is attempting to interfere in its results. Putin’s actions in Ukraine, his murders of other Russians who oppose him, and his declaration of war with attempts to ensure a victory for his greatest asset, Donald Trump, prove that he is our nation’s biggest

Fascism has Arrived in America: It’s Wearing a Cross and Waving the Flag

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley, agrees with me: Trump is undoubtedly a fascist. The truth is more upsetting than the fact that one man who wants to be your president hates democracy. The reality is one entire political party has morphed from being the “Grand Old Party,” or the Party of Lincoln, and is now Trump’s “American Fascist Party.” It doesn’t take a genius to realize that the right-wing’s extremist list of plans and policies, labeled “Project 2025,” is a 922-page revival of Hitler’s “Mein Kampf.” To deny this fact is to choose ignorance over reality. Your vote is guaranteed by the First Amendment. However, it is more than a right, it is a responsibility. Vote and vote for yourself and those you love. Kamala Harris in 2024.

Someone Stand Up and Tell Trump and his Desperate Party that Scare Tactics are Too Old, and no Longer Have Any Effect

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Kamala Harris is promising all Americans that our country will move forward and that she will serve each of them when she becomes our 47 th President. Trump is telling us that she has been a terrible prosecutor, D.A., attorney general, and senator. Of course his attacks are baseless, but his negativity continues to dominate his campaign. If both candidates decided to base their campaigns on legitimate attacks, Trump would end up in the slime at the bottom of a swamp. NOTHING POSITIVE TO SAY ABOUT “TRUMPENSTEIN” I am one of those boring people who tries to find something good about everyone. I am sorry to say that over the 10 years I have been writing about Donald Trump, I have been unable to find one good thing to say about the man accurately labeled “the worst president in American history.” I begin in June of 2015, just after Trump declared his candidacy. Promising that he would build a wall across our entire southern border and Mexico would pay for it was a

A Little Test: Are You a Patriot?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It’s another election year. The most important right guaranteed to all Americans is your right to vote. With that right comes great responsibility. If you vote for a party, casting aside consideration for who might be the best candidate for our nation’s future, you are not a patriotic American. Political parties are the problem, not the solution. They are not concerned with rebuilding our dysfunctional government. They seek power and wealth. Patriot: “a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors.” Hugging the flag, wearing a hat with a slogan intended to be patriotic but is in fact racist, and constantly suggesting that our country is a disaster, does not make you a patriot. The facts prove that Trump is our nation’s enemy. WHO IS DONALD JOHN TRUMP AND WHAT ARE HIS PARTY OF EXTREMISTS? With 922 pages of plans for our nation’s future, Project 2025 is filled with an agenda which can only be described as

We Should be Looking at this Election as a Trial in a Criminal Court of Law

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The issue is, “what have you done for 330+ American people in your political career, and what will you do now?” If we eliminate all the lies, innuendos, personal attacks, and focus completely on what the candidates have accomplished or will accomplish for the American people throughout their political careers, we can make an intelligent decision. This is the same way a jury decides the outcome of a criminal trial: the facts. The results of an election should be addressed with the same degree of importance. BOTH SIDES SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO TELL THE TRUTH UNDER OATH AND IN FRONT OF THE TELEVISION CAMERAS Instead of the type of election we have today, it could be a one-day event when all Americans are glued to their electronic devices. (The debates were intended to provide that opportunity, but only one candidate debated the issues this year. The other made a complete fool of himself). All Americans would have one vote, secured by a PIN. After both presiden

No American Wants the Trump Klan in our White House Again

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart According to some men and women who worked in the Trump White House, chaos, anger, uncertainty, and disorganization dominated their daily lives. The atmosphere of each day was dependent upon the mood of Donald John Trump, when he was in Washington. Several aides reported a confusing and unpleasant relationship with daughter Ivanka, and her husband, Jared Kushner. No one quite understood their function: why they were granted significance when their purpose was never defined. IS HIS FAMILY DISOWNING HIM? ARE THEY DISTANCING THEMSELVES FROM THEIR FAMILY’S NAZI HERITAGE? Although it’s true that Trump’s eldest two sons support his campaign for the White House, it is somewhat surprising that his favorite child, daughter Ivanka, and her husband, Jared Kushner, are missing in action. “Tweedle Dumb” and “Tweedle Dee” have no choice. They have accomplished nothing in their pitiful lives, even less than their father. They are entirely dependent on him for their v

Why is the Mainstream Media Hiding the Truth About Trump and Putin?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The year was 1987. A 41-year-old Donald Trump, and his wife, Ivana, were invited to Moscow by the KGB. They accepted. Vladimir Putin began his career with the KGB in 1975. He reached a position of power in the spy agency in the late 1980’s, resigning in 1991 to achieve his political ambitions. Although there is no record of the events which occurred in 1987, it is fair to say that it was during this visit to Moscow when Trump and Putin began a relationship. However, while campaigning in 2016, Trump lied, saying, “I never met the man.” During the 2016 campaign, a dossier composed by former MI-6 agent, Christopher Steele, was released. The subject was Trump’s visit to Moscow in 2013. As part owner of the Miss Universe Pageant, Trump participated in a number of events over the three days. The document contains allegations about how Putin and Trump completed plans to steal the 2016 election during those few days. In October of 2016, a meeting in the Oval

One Example of One of the Most Important Issues of This Election

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In 1981 the Republican Party began to change. It could no longer be called “the Party of Lincoln.” Right wing politicians had begun their abandonment of the principles, morals, and ideals of a great President, and an even greater man. One change remains a dark fact which is no longer a secret. Facts confirm that when there is a large voter turnout the results of the election favor Democrats. Today every red state has passed laws focused on voter suppression. This is a major issue no one is talking about. The targets are specific groups which historically support Democratic candidates. A combination of this fact and Republican racism and bigotry led Republicans to place an emphasis on Black voters, but now includes anyone who is not pure white and Christian. THE TRUTH ABOUT THE 2020 ELECTION Trump suffered a devastating defeat in the 2020 election. He knows it. However, his affliction with malignant narcissism prevents him from accepting this irrefutable fact. Th

America’s Federal Courts are Broken and Trump and his Party are to Blame

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If you are paying attention to the most serious and destructive situation in America you are aware that the federal court system has been corrupted from the Supreme Court to every lower court in every state. Every Republican president since Reagan intentionally appointed or nominated judges who lean to the far right. Because of this irrefutable fact, justice in America is not blind, nor is it without bias. The greatest disaster and affront to the intentions of our Founding Fathers is the Supreme Court of the United States. When our Founding Fathers created the Judicial Branch of our check and balance system, they devised what they believed was a plan which would prevent the Court from becoming politicized. This has become the greatest mistake in the entire Constitutional Convention. PROOF THAT TERM LIMITS ARE NECESSARY FOR ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THE COURT Justices were given lifetime appointments which prevented the need to win elections which are always divi

Nikki Haley’s Failed, Short Campaign to Benefit Kamala Harris

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Let’s be honest, my friends. Although I despise the word and its meaning, most Americans, real Americans, hate Donald John Trump. He stands for everything true patriots oppose. One fact about Trump seldom discussed is the fact that he is lazy. He has never worked a day in his life. I have seen photos of him driving his golf cart onto a green, too lazy to walk a few feet from the cart path. After she ended her campaign, former South Carolina Governor, and Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, offered her fealty to Trump. She advised him to seek support from the men and women who voted for her in the primaries. This was too much effort for Trump. President Biden decided that he might persuade Haley’s supporters to vote for him. Today, a growing number of Haley’s supporters are organizing a campaign to offer their support for Kamala Harris. Craig Snyder is the campaign director. “When we cast our votes in the primaries we weren’t really voting for her as a
