Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump claimed his primary goals for his unilateral decision to invade Iran remain toppling Iran's government, better known as regime change, weakening Iran's military, security and nuclear capabilities and its regional influence, as well as supporting Israeli interests. Only one goal has been achieved: Trump gives his full support to his long lost twin, Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Israeli Army. For Trump, this is nothing less than another failure. For the American people, it is a costly error in judgment. Three-quarters of all Americans oppose any military action in the Middle East. TRUMP REMAINS A MAN DESPERATE FOR RELEVANCE AND A SINGLE SUCCESS IN A LIFE DOMINATED BY FAILURE Trump failed in the private sector for more than 40 years. Only by cheating on his taxes, and accepting assistance from Vladimir Putin and the Saudi Royal Family saved his business “empire.” His presidency was the least effective in American history. Between 2017 and 2021 his only ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart On November 8, 2016, the worst thing which could happen to America became a reality. The least qualified, least loyal American became your illegitimate president. Over the next 10 years the world learned that Donald John Trump is a lifetime criminal, a sexual deviate and predator, a man with below average intelligence, a failed businessman, and continues to suffer from a lifelong mental illness known as malignant narcissism. I’m sure that all Americans hoped that Trump learned from his many mistakes when he won his second rigged election on November 5, 2024. Hope is all we had. Events over the last 15+ months prove that Trump 2.0 is far worse than the first. FOR TRUMP, THE CONSTITUTION’S ONLY PURPOSE IS AS OLD, ROUGH TOILET PAPER Constitutional violations flow from Trump like water from a faucet. After six corrupt members of the current Supreme Court, Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, and John Roberts, gave Trump ab...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Some facts about the current leadership in the Pentagon. Our military leaders have lost every war since WWII. However, each year Congress increases the Pentagon’s budget, although it was clear that they wasted 50 percent of their previous budget attempting to create the “ultimate weapon,” regardless of futility and waste. In 2026, the Pentagon received $961.6 billion dollars. However, the worst was yet to come. COMMITTING WAR CRIMES AND VIOLATING THE UCMJ I grew up watching every John Wayne WWII movie ever made. They increased my already profound feelings of patriotism. However, today’s military leaders are not actors, and their actions are far from noble. First, an important fact. The Pentagon is not bound by law to obey the orders of their Commander-in-Chief if those orders violate the Constitution or the Universal Code of Military Justice. Trump and Hegseth’s murders of more than 100 passengers on speed boats off the coast of Venezuela, are actions of nothing...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First and foremost, massive corruption is the reason the federal government of the United States is dysfunctional and irreparable in its current state. But who or what allowed such a level of corruption to become the norm in Washington D.C.? Number one is why our national motto has changed from “e pluribus unum,” to “profit before people”. ONLY ONE MAN CAN BE REMEMBERED AS “THE PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT” In 1932 the greatest President in America’s history was elected by the people. Big business had a stranglehold on America’s working class after the Great Depression of 1929. Franklin Delano Roosevelt fought for all Americans until he died during his fourth term in 1945. His policies improved the quality of life for the working class and allowed big business to take care of itself. Without FDR the only perfect law would never have been passed. He signed the Social Security Act in 1935 and today, in the 21 st century, most older Americans rely on Social Security for mos...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump has accomplished many firsts. However, none of them are beneficial for the people of our country. The truth is, Trump is not a man, and possibly inhuman. He is the Antichrist risen straight from hell to destroy the once ‘most respected nation in the world.’He enjoys murdering innocent people and inflicting pain on anyone in our nation who remains loyal to their country and the Constitution. Yesterday, March 28, 2026, one of the largest protests in our nation’s history  took place in all 50 states and in every Congressional District. However, the “No Kings” protests were not exclusive to America. There were protests around the world. Men, women, and children carried signs with “Dump Trump” written on them as they marched in the streets wherever they lived. I HAVE BEEN CRITICIZED FOR COMPARING TRUMP TO HITLER: I HAVE BEEN VINDICATED MANY TIMES Trump’s first trophy wife, Ivana, told her friends that her husband read Adolf Hitler’s speeches every night bef...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The Super-rich, professional politicians, fake Christians, the Pentagon, corrupt members of the Supreme Court, the Department of Justice, and, all law enforcement. If you are a hard-working, patriotic American, the groups previously listed are your enemies. They serve an old, fat, mentally damaged traitor, not their country, and definitely not you and me. It is a widely known fact that Trump’s only loyalty is to Donald Trump, and not to anyone else. Over the last 10+ years we have watched Trump demand complete loyalty to him, but has not offered the same to others. WHY WOULD THE ABOVE NAMED GROUPS SUPPORT TRUMP? Donald John Trump is a traitor, a sexual predator, and the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement. So, if you love your country, how could you possibly support the worst man in the world? The answer is clear and undeniable. America is no longer a capitalistic society, it is a plutocracy, also known as an oligarchy. A plutocracy cannot be sustained in a na...

Fascism has returned: Trump and Putin are seeking world domination. Our nation's people and its economic future  are being destroyed by the Orange Buffoon. Fuhrer Donald Trump is the only danger to world peace in the 21st century. Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart  

Dear Readers Google owns the site I use for my blog. Sadly, Google's executive branch supports the worst man in the world, and continues its efforts to censor and block the truth I offer all of you about the orange buffoon. I will never surrender to fascism. If this continues, I will change the provider to and honest and American company. Thank you for your support and please don't give up on America James Turnage/THEWISEOLDFART  

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart “If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck.” If you see something with your own eyes, it is reality, and cannot be questioned or denied. Trump is an idiot, and nothing proves this fact more than when he attempts to convince the American people that what they see is not real, and what he tells them is the only reality. The term is “gaslighting.” ["Gaslighting" (often misspelled "gaslighting") is a manipulative tactic where someone makes a victim question their own reality, memory, or sanity, creating self-doubt, confusion, and dependence, often to gain power, by denying events, trivializing feelings, or twisting facts. It's a form of psychological abuse, making the victim feel "crazy" or like they are "overreacting".] Trump’s biggest problem is that he thinks all Americans are as dumb as he and his followers choose to be. With our birthdays just three weeks apart, I would challenge the orange buffoon t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is highly likely that I have written at least one article about every evil act committed by Trump, his Fascist Party, and his relationship with Vladimir Putin. Much of the damage caused by Trump and his Nazi supporters is irreparable, at least for several decades in the future. I hate Trump and what has become the American Nazi Party. I never use that word. However, Trump has earned its use by me and any loyal and patriotic American. The underlying truth is undeniable. Everything which is happening to our country from the most corrupt politicians in history is farcical. None of it is real, and all of it proves that evil is real, and if there was a “God,” He or She is definitely dead. The following is a short list of what is real and what is not. A real President of the United States follows the rules contained in the Constitution. Trump violates his oath of office, to “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, fo...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Unlike the mainstream media, I refuse to tiptoe around the edges of the truth. I will always jump right into the middle and tell you what’s really happening in Washington. Whatever country in which I live today, it is not the United States of America. In just one year Trump has destroyed the ideals, principles, and the reputation of a nation which was once the most respected in the world. Trump intentionally creates chaos, fear, and anger throughout the world every day. He is the worst and most hated man in modern history. Inside America, the statement made by former FBI Director, Christopher Wray, that ‘domestic terrorism is the greatest threat to the American people,’ has become a reality. What he did not predict is the fact that the leader of domestic violence in America has become the old, obese man violating our White House today. His personal Gestapo is a poorly trained group of thugs, villains, and Nazis posing as “law enforcement officers.” ICE is perfor...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I despise and attempt to eliminate from my life emotions of anger and hatred. I reject all forms of violence including the death penalty, and all wars and invasions. Anger is a waste of time, hate is almost always based on ignorance. Killing another human being is playing God.. There are rare exceptions to hatred, and there is no better example than Donald John Trump. Trump’s entire 325-350 pounds are composed of hatred. He, his administration, his political party composed of Nazis, and all broadcast television networks claiming to be “conservative,” but are in fact propaganda machines for right-wing extremists, constantly spread hatred which eventually breeds violence. His deliberate effort to destroy our nation from within is the reason every true American learned to accept hatred for the orange buffoon. As I grew into adulthood in the 1960’s, I paid more attention to what was happening in Washington. I wasn’t shocked, but I was a little surprised about the an...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart 2025 was a very, very long year. Some of you may have forgotten that Trump’s attacks on America began with efforts to punish minorities and the poor for not being rich and white. Diversity, equity, and inclusion, known as DEI, is a purely American ideal. If we are all equal under the law, and share the same Constitutional and Human rights, it simply makes sense. However, Trump is a Nazi. His fascist policies, contained in the right-wing’s fascist manifesto, Project 2025, claim that all non-whites, and all ethnicities not originating from Western Europe are inferior, and therefore not protected by the Constitution. It’s commonly called “white supremacy,” and Trump is its leader. The United States District Attorney, and the Department of Justice, including the FBI, are intended to be separate from the executive branch. However, Pam Bonie and her DOJ take their orders directly from the orange buffoon. Tood Blanche, Deputy District Attorney, and another Trump stooge...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart War Crimes can be added to Trump’s dark and dismal resume. He is not alone. Our military brass, those who hide in the Pentagon, are complicit with the worst man in the world. Beginning in his early days, Trump revealed his worship of Adolf Hitler. Several friends of his first wife, Ivana, were told that he read Hitler’s speeches every evening before going to sleep. Today, the fifth day of a new, and possibly last year of life on planet earth, Trump has begun his own fascist plan for world domination. His efforts have been sanctioned by his own party, the Supreme Court, and the Pentagon. He also has a partner in his vile plans, his mentor, Vladimir Putin. The United Nations Security Council is currently in session to discuss Trump’s latest crimes against humanity, and international law. The UN chief António Guterres told ambassadors there must be respect for national sovereignty, “political independence and territorial integrity,” after warning on Saturday that t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As an original baby boomer, patriotism was all around me. My father had returned from a ship in the Pacific in 1945. He had survived the war to prevent the spread of fascism. I was born in Lewiston, Idaho, in 1946. With jobs now plentiful in Los Angeles and other major cities, my maternal grandparents, me, my mother, father, my little brother, and one of my uncles moved to the City of Angels in 1952. In the fall, I was sent to St. Mark’s Elementary School to attend 1 st grade. Every morning our teacher, a nun, had us face the American flag standing in the corner and recite the Pledge of Allegiance. Those words, and their meaning, will live inside my head for the rest of my life. However, in 2025, they mean nothing to the orange buffoon defiling our White House. Today is the first day of 2026: a new beginning which offers hope for the return of democracy, and freedom to all people living inside the United States of America, regardless of race, sex, religious pre...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is no secret that after nearly five years as your illegitimate president, Trump has accomplished nothing of a positive nature. The reasons for this are many, but I have no doubt it began before the orange buffoon reached puberty, if he ever did. There is no information about Trump’s childhood. What we do know is that his parents no longer wanted him in their home and placed him in a local military boarding school at the age of 13. I have no doubt that it was during this time that he became a schoolyard bully. He is a coward, and all schoolyard bullies are cowards, ordering others to do his fighting for him. This continues today. His success as a Manhattan real estate mogul is a fable. The New York business community tells tales of his bribing public officials in charge of inspecting his construction projects, and threatened anyone who attempted to expose his crimes. At least six bankruptcies, and bailouts by Russian oligarchs and the Saudi Royal Family saved ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Every twisted decision Trump makes adds to a long list of proof that he is the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement. His most recent action makes no effort to hide the fact that your illegitimate president considers anyone who is not white inferior to himself and his fascist party. [Andrea Lucas, head of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, released a video last week calling for white men who claim they’ve been hurt by diversity policies to file claims to potentially “recover money under federal civil rights laws.”] If this was not so obviously supercilious, I would be laughing right now. As a child, my single mother and her small family were poor. However, we lived in an area of Los Angeles which benefitted from white privilege. Although I was unaware of how racist my country was until the age of 12 or 13, I watched the news and I learned that most Black Americans were not only poor, but disenfranchised by those in power. In 1962, I escaped from my Ca...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is a waste of time to read or watch the “news” in 2025. Most of it concerns the evil and destructive actions of the worst man in the world, Donald John Trump. Two days ago, there was another mass shooting in America. This one occurred at Brown University, in Providence, Rhode Island. A lone gunman killed two and seriously wounded nine more. However, this will remain the headline for just a single day. Mass shootings in the United States have become commonplace. Since 2017 there have been more mass shootings in America than days on the calendar. However, Trump’s crimes, including murder, sexual depravity, efforts to ethnically cleanse our nation, Constitutional violations, and efforts to enact revenge on anyone he perceives to be an enemy, capture most of the news broadcasts on television, and a large portion of print news and on the internet. My America no longer exists. What was a nation composed of compassion, understanding, and a desire to grow and become ...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart At a hearing last week, Congress demanded to know who was responsible for the murder of two survivors after a missile struck their boat and were obliterated by a second missile. This happened on December 2, 2025. The question shouldn’t have been about who ordered the second strike, a war crime by definition, but why would any American choose to commit such a vile crime against human beings they had never met? The problem lies in the fact that the Pentagon has become politicized. Anyone holding the rank of colonel or vice-admiral and above has become a member of the worst, most evil profession in the world: politician. Where is my country? Why has the most vile and disgusting person in the world, pretending to be your president, been allowed to remain in our White House? Let’s be totally honest about the situation. Pete Hegseth, the least qualified Secretary of State in history, is guilty of murder and committed a war crime. Admiral Bradley violated the Uni...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It’s a sad fact that I was not surprised that Trump chose Pete Hegseth to be Secretary of Defense. They are very similar. Both are white supremacists, sexual predators, and confirmed criminals. Hegseth is also a well-known alcoholic whose antics embarrassed everyone he knew. It was also important for Trump that Hegseth was a part-time personality on his personal propaganda machine, Fox News. Trump and Hegseth made a decision to attack a group of Democrats who offered advice to our military who are being forced to act like a Gestapo in our nation’s “blue” states. They made a public service announcement informing our men and women in uniform that if what they are ordered to do is a violation of federal law or the Constitution, they are not required to carry out those orders. Trump is not a confirmed fascist dictator. At least not yet. Nothing upsets Trump more than the truth. He is known to fly into rage at any moment when one of his illegal actions is exposed. Ne...
