Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart For more than 10 years, I have been telling you that Trump was a huge fan of Adolf Hitler. Before going to sleep, he read his Fuhrer’s speeches over and over again. It is also fair to assume that he read “Mein Kampf” as well. Anyone with common sense is aware that if Trump’s lips are moving, he’s lying. However, some of his lies are laughable and others are extremely destructive. His lie about the 2020 election is not only the most infamous lie he ever told, but it also remains responsible for the great divide among our nation’s people. However, Trump did not create this lie. He learned it from Mein Kampf, Hitler’s own fascist manifesto. FROM HITLER TO TRUMP WITH HATE Hitler was a master manipulator. He knew one important fact about the average person. He was aware that if he was to be an all-powerful dictator, the people would need to believe that everything he said was fact and anything which opposed his ideas and beliefs was actually misleading and false. His...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart A celebration devoted to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, will also be remembered for a fire on the Brooklyn Bridge, a debacle in San Francisco, cancelled parades, the longest and most boring fireworks display in history, and a mass shooting on Coney Island. BEGINNING AT THE TOP What should have been a promise to renew the intent of the Declaration of Independence became another politically motivated Trump hate rally and turned a celebration into a memoriam for what America once strived to become. A few words to remind all Americans why we celebrate the 4 th of July. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” This one sentence was a summation of the core values the New Nation would stand upon. I can understand why Trump failed to refer to the document which in...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The facts are irrefutable. Donald Trump is America’s greatest traitor, and its greatest enemy, equaled only by his puppeteer, Vladimir Putin. To call him “America’s worst president in history” is redundant. Two impeachments, zero fair trials in the Senate: committing treason on January 6, 2021: violating the Espionage Act on January 20, 2021: responsible for many of the one-million-plus deaths from Covid-19 after failing to take immediate action: and placing our economy in proximity to a second great depression: these are the highlights of Trump’s first term between 2017 and 2021. From his first day in office until today, his second term is far, far worse. PROJECT 2025: 922 PAGES OF FASCIST DOCTRINE On January 21, 2025, Trump revealed his plans for the next four years. He began efforts to destroy the lives of his enemies: more than 200 million patriotic Americans. His early Constitutional violations were efforts to use his position as your illegitimate president...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Nothing about Trump’s self-created persona is real. There are irrefutable facts on full display that the orange buffoon is a very old, obese, mentally deficient pretender who is desperate to remain relevant and powerful. He is intentionally destroying the core fabric of American values. The truth is that Trump’s mental acuity is in steep decline. A combination of his lifelong affliction with malignant narcissism and escalating dementia are apparent for everyone to see and he must be removed from the presidency if our nation is to be saved from extinction. THE UNTOLD TRUTH Trump’s Nazi Party is in chaos. Without his supporters and the reality of a growing number of Republicans who are deserting the once Grand Old Party, right-wing politicians are existing in an atmosphere consisting of uncertainty and fear. Not a single man or woman calling themselves “Republican” today, is concerned about anything other than reelection. The midterm elections are critical for Tru...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The hidden list: Healthcare, education, income inequality, racism and bigotry, religious persecution, misogyny, homophobia, Islamophobia, and an illegitimate and fascist president who hates his own country. Trump has been allowed to be your illegitimate president for five years and five months. He failed to take his job seriously between 2017 and 2021, and is once again refusing to serve the American people in 2026. Trump is the ultimate, professional politician. He made hundreds of promises over the last eleven years, and failed to keep one of them. President Biden spent four years repairing the damage caused by the orange buffoon. Therefore, not a single effort to solve our nation’s growing problems has been addressed since President Obama left office in 2017. Let’s look at each of the biggest problems facing America, many of which began in 1981, and have only become more problematic over the last 45 years. THE WORST AND MOST EXPENSIVE HEALTHCARE IN ALL DEVELO...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart No one, nothing, has proven the fact that America is all about profits and not the people than the illegitimate presidencies of Donald John Trump. For decades the right-wing has supported special interests and ignored the working class. Trump is openly conspiring with his oligarchs to control the future of our nation for the next 50+ years. YOU CAN HIDE SOME THINGS, SOMETIMES, BUT YOU WILL BE CAUGHT Trump’s financial records show that in his first year of his second term, his businesses made a profit of 1.4 billion dollars. Trump is running our government like one of his personal businesses. America is deeper in debt every month, but his personal account is growing rapidly. Trump is clearly the “Don” of the Washington Mafia. He controls every member of his party. Nothing happens without his approval. He is more than a dictator, he is controlling the most prosperous mafia in U.S. history. 40 YEARS AGO, I ADMITTED THE TRUTH There was a time in my life when I was e...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart, I cancelled my Paramount subscription, and refused to watch “60 Minutes” and any other news broadcast on CBS, the minute I learned that Stephen Colbert had been fired. I enjoyed his nightly show, but more importantly, I hated Paramount for violating the First Amendment rights of Mr. Colbert. His humor, focused primarily on the worst president in history, was fair and balanced, unlike this other network calling itself Fox News. He used Trump’s own words and actions to expose America’s Fuhrer. THE MOST TRUSTED NEWS NETWORK IN AMERICA HAS BECOME THE LEAST RESPECTED IN THE INDUSTRY Every news broadcast on CBS is losing ratings, and with it, advertising revenue. The station which was privileged to have Walther Cronkite as its primary journalist has become the joke of the industry. This is what happens when billionaires attempt to control a country, or when a Trump sycophant is in control of any aspect of governance. TWO BROADCASTS I NEVER MISSED ...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart, Before the Constitution was signed in 1789, there was a White America, and a Black America. In the 21 st century, there is a greater division between Blacks and Whites. There are also two more “Americas:” one for the super-rich and powerful, and one for low-income and poor men and women. These four Americas are often intertwined, with the exception of the super-rich and powerful. Not a single man or woman with power and great wealth has been fairly punished for a serious crime in my lifetime. The average income for all incarcerated men and women prior to their convictions is less than $20,000 per year. Think about it. WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN AMERICAN From the time the first settlers arrived in the New World, America has been dominated by working-class Americans. It wasn’t long before they were called “rebels” by the British elite. In truth, it was a badge of honor. These men and women came to the colonies seeking freedoms they had never had in wes...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is following his fascist manifesto, Project 2025 closely, proving that he is not only a Nazi, but is indeed the leader of the recently unveiled American Nazi Party. Totalitarian governments cannot exist in a Democracy. Neither Communism nor Fascism can maintain control in a free society. One of the most important components of Fascism is secrecy. It is a well-established fact that Trump’s administration is the most secretive in modern history. However, for your Fuhrer, that is not sufficient. He is now attempting to force all government employees to sign NDA’s, preventing any form of government transparency and what we have learned to know as “whistleblowers.” I have offered my readers one fact for years: “if any politician or employee on Capitol Hill claims that they are unable to answer a direct question for ‘reasons of national security,’ they are definitely hiding a crime committed by them, or one of their constituents. WHY IS TRUMP WORRIED? Trump is b...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I had a dream, at least I wish it was nothing but a bad dream. In this dream, I fell asleep on November 7, 2016, and when I woke up, my surroundings told me it was the beginning of another, ordinary day. However, the events of that day and what I heard on television told me that I was no longer in the United States of America. The date on my computer was January 19, 2017. The primary story on television news was about the events of January 20, and the inauguration of our nation’s 45 th president. However, the picture displayed on the screen showed Donald Trump, not Hillary Clinton. What the fuck? This was not possible. Not only was Hillary far ahead in the polls, Trump was a joke, He was the least qualified man in history to seek the office of President of the United States. He was a complete failure in the private sector, and the Manhattan real estate community was aware that he was a white-collar criminal. He had a reputation as a sexual predator who had been...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In January of 2017, an entire political party, which was once known as “the Grand Old Party,” abandoned its morals, its self-respect, its principles, and its dignity, and surrendered its free thought and free will to an old, obese, and mentally deficient failed businessman who had renently been illegitimately sworn in as their president. The Party of Lincoln had taken its last breath. MOST “REPUBLICANS” KNOW BETTER I have no doubt that the majority of the men and women who call themselves “Republicans” in Washington have at least average intelligence and are fully aware that Trump has become a dictator. They know that his policies are wrong for America, but with a shrinking voter base, they are desperate to receive the votes of his ignorant supporters. His failure to keep his promises, most notably ending inflation, ending the invasion of Ukraine, and keeping our nation out of another unwinnable war in the Middle East, are adding to the possibility of Democrats ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Is Trump mentally ill? That is a huge understatement. Everything he says, everything he does, makes no sense. He is wasting billions, and possibly trillions of dollars waging wars, destroying national treasures and rebuilding them into what appear to be massage parlors and brothels: places Trump is obviously more familiar with. TRUMP’S CONTROVERSIAL 2024 VICTORY WAS ACHIEVED WITH LIES AND MISDIRECTION Trump attempted to make the 2024 election all about the economy. We now know that this was another attempt to gaslight the American people. It is a fact that America’s voting public is the least informed in the world, and therefore his tactics were successful, if the election was fair. Evidence proves it was not. However, millions of gullible Americans believed Trump’s promises: to end the invasion of Ukraine on day one; to end inflation/Greedflation on day one; to prevent another war on foreign soil; and to reduce the national debt. How’s he doing? Stop laughing. ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I have had a very strong opinion about abortion long before I could vote. Decisions to terminate a pregnancy belong to women alone, with the advice of their doctors. Old, white men have no right to make that decision for them, including priests, ministers, pastors, Ra bbis, Imams, and especially not ambitious and corrupt politicians. When Trump’s corrupt Supreme Court repealed Roe v Wade, they made a decision which was nothing less than pandering to Christians, primarily Evangelical leaders. It had nothing to do with undeveloped fetus’, it was purely political and another attack on women’s rights. All humans must own the right to make decisions about their own mental and physical health. MORE FASCIST ATTACKS ON WOMEN FROM TRUMP AND HIS NAZI PARTY On April 28, 2026, Jessica Waters testified before the House Judiciary Committee. For two hours, Ms. Waters was questioned about the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, a federal law which Republicans want to rep...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Over the last 10 years, the former Republican Party and six corrupt Supreme Court justices exposed themselves, allowing every American to see who they really are. Their loyalty belongs to the worst man in the world; an old, obese traitor who has become the Fuhrer of the United States of America. However, Trump is not the sharpest tool in the shed, and his actions have been so extreme that many of his most loyal supporters are beginning to see the truth. He is a con man: not a good one, but he has the full support of the former Grand Old Party and the majority of the Supreme Court. However, hope is alive. It is very clear today that Democrats and Independents have an excellent chance of taking control of both houses of Congress in November. IT IS NO SURPRISE THAT TRUMP’S APPROVAL RATING HAS FALLEN TO AN HISTORICALLY LOW NUMBER Trump’s campaign promises were all lies. The American people are experiencing a steep decline in their quality of life. Inflation continue...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The United States of America is more divided than it was before the first Civil War. The economy is in shambles. Most Americans are struggling with escalating inflation. America’s healthcare is the least effective and most expensive in the world. The federal government is corrupt and totally incompetent. Women’s rights have been moved backwards to the mid-twentieth century. The Supreme Court is complicit with right-wing extremists in their attempts at voter suppression. With the leader of white supremacy occasionally residing in the White House, racism and bigotry have reached levels not seen since the 1920’s and 1930’s. All of this is directly attributable to one man, Donald John Trump, and yet, Trump is telling the Chancellor of Germany to “fix his broken country.” I couldn’t make this shit up if I tried. ATTEMPTING TO DEFEND THE INDEFENSIBLE: HIS WAR ON IRAN “The Chancellor of Germany should spend more time on ending the war with Russia/Ukraine (Where he has ...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Growing up in the 1950’s and 1960’s, there were two slogans I heard frequently: “Made in America,” and “Only in America.” Both inspired patriotism and pride in our nation. This was post WWII and our nation had been a major component in the defeat of fascism. I remember the many products began to display the label, “made in China,” and we believed that the influx of products created in foreign nations was somewhat exciting. What this young man did not understand was this was the beginning of outsourcing in America. “Only in America” inspired patriotism and the unique qualities offered by life in what politicians called “the greatest country in the world.”. Free thought, and the freedom to be yourself if your actions did not infringe upon the rights of the majority were perfect examples of why our country had become the most respected in the world. The United States had embarked on a path to create the first “great nation,” a nation which would place its peo...
