Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Fact: There are no true Republicans in Washington today. In 1981, Ronald Reagan forced every Republican to take an oath of absolute loyalty. This was the beginning of the end of the once Grand Old Party, and the destruction of our Founding Fathers’ system of governance. Reagan’s three successors, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, and Donald Trump, adopted the same failed policies initiated by Reagan: absolute loyalty without dissention and free thought, and the failed fiscal policy of “trickle-down economics.” When George W. Bush and his V.P. Dick Chendy ignored the warnings of our security agencies and went on vacation in 2001, refusing to take their admonitions seriously. The result was one of the darkest days in American history: September 11, 2001. It was George W. Bush who overreacted and in several situations, including his reelection campaign in 2004, used the outrage and fear of the American people to secure victories for his personal agenda. It was the ...

Trump is a weak and powerless schoolyard bully who obeys his master, Vladimir Putin. The enormous damage he has done to our nation over the last 10 years cannot be accredited solely to one obese, very old man who is in advanced stages of dementia. Our entire government, the media, and Trump’s oligarchs continue to hide the truth from the 340 million people who in reality are the United States of America. The fact that the American people are suffering from a dysfunctional government, composed of corrupt politicians, a Supreme Court which ignores its singular responsibility, and an illegitimate president whose loyalty belongs to the Russian president explains how the demise of America has become a reality. If you choose to assume that my allegations are part of a conspiracy theory, you are sadly mistaken and misinformed. This story began early in 2016. Our government was informed by all 12 security agencies that they were investigating their belief that Vladimir Putin was attempting to ...

If I had an iota of respect for Trump, I would never use such an expletive. However, his choice to violate the Constitution, to ignore the law completely, is pissing me off in ways I never imagined in my most frightening nightmares. What is happening in Los Angeles is Trump taking a huge shit on the Law of the Land. It is a crime to use our nation’s military to wage battle against its own people. Trump ordered National Guard troops to quash the protests against his racist immigration polity in the City of Angels. That did not solve the problem. He is now ordering about 700 United States Marines to do whatever is necessary to halt American citizens from exercising their First Amendment rights. When will this shit end? If our military “leaders” continue to bow to the Nazi in the White House, how can America be saved? When Rodney King was beaten so badly that he was near death in 1991, the four police officers involved were tried in 1992 and acquitted by a racist jury. President George H....

Trump’s policies are a combination of Mein Kampf, and Project 2025. From his first rally in 2015, his message was composed of anger, hatred, and violence. In 2017 his first actions revealed his hatred of all non-whites and non “Christians.” He followed Reagan’s policy of disregard for the working class and support of the mega-rich whom we call billionaires, or oligarchs. He made it very clear that he would not serve anyone who chose not to support him and his anti-American policies. Trump believes that he has joined his biggest idol, Adolf Hitler, in becoming America’s Fuhrer. And, why shouldn’t he? The Supreme Court gave him absolute immunity and he has become a vile and ruthless dictator over the last four months. His actions in Los Angeles are unforgivable and unconstitutional. What angers me the most is that our military leaders are not required by law to attack our nation’s people, nor are they required to perform for the dictator in celebration of his 79 th , and hopefully last b...

Denying facts is standard operating procedure for right wing politicians. But the truth is undeniable: Trump is undoubtedly the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement. Since 1981, politicians who sit on the right side of the aisle began a campaign to remove the darkest facts about our country’s darkest past. The most well-known issue has been slavery which began long before the Declaration of Independence in 1776. In 1619, the first slaves stepped onto the land of what would be a new nation. Although Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, and the Union declared victory in the Civil War in 1865, racism continues to be as great a problem today as it was 406 years ago. The illegitimate inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2025, was a travesty for our entire nation. However, for minorities it was a confirmation that genocide is acceptable in America. Trump is the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement. He and his army of white supremacists attempted to overthrow...

Trump, like all white supremacists/fascists, believes that pure whites are stronger and more resilient than all other races. Of course, he is ignoring the fact that Hitler’s fascist army was soundly defeated by allied forces composed of a racially diverse and ethnically mixed group of “inferior” fighters. Trump was trained by his father. The reason he was sent to a military boarding school at the age of 13 is unknown. What we do know is that Trump was removed from his mother during the most critical and formative years of a teenage boy’s life. When his “education” in the private sector ended in 1964, he joined his father’s real estate business. Although the details of his duties are not clear, it is acceptable to believe that during that time, he was involved in his father’s high rise apartment rentals. When a Black man or woman applied, a large red “C” was placed at the top of the rental application, literally preventing men and women of color from gaining residence in his buildings. ...

  The media once again refuses to tell the truth about one of the most evil and vile efforts to commit genocide in modern history. The terrorist group, Hamas, and those who harbor these evil and worthless scumbags¸ including some of the residents in Gaza, the government of Qatar, and others including the probabil ity of the Saudi Royal family, opportunistic members of our current, corrupt government, and Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, are participants in the unnecessary deaths of thousand of innocent men, women, and children. The story begins with an attack on innocent Israelis attending a concert. A cowardly group of hate-filled cowards and fake Muslims, armed with personal agendas opposed to the Religion of Islam, attacked innocent and unarmed young men and women from the nation of Israel. 1,196 innocents were killed and thousands injured, and the terrorist group responsible, Hamas, took approximately 251 hostages. No one can blame the Israeli people for taking ever...

Trump is a Nazi and ICE is his personal gestapo. He promised to deport criminals and illegal immigrants, but of course, he lied. After covering Trump closely for the last 10 years, I still have no answer to one question. I understand how he became a white supremacist, but when did he focus on Hispanics as the one race he hates beyond all others? It should be clear to everyone that he ordered the removal of any and all Hispanics, even if they earned legal residence in the United States. And once again he is intentionally inflicting even greater pain by separating parents from their children. This is torture and he is enjoying inflicting pain on others. Part of being a malignant narcissist is a lack of compassion while enjoying the suffering of others. Trump’s mental incompetence is escalating. What’s next. Will he create his own form of “death camps?”  Which brings me to another question I have asked myself tor a decade: Has Trump ordered the murder of anyone in his life? He has com...

If Trump is not the Antichrist, I don’t want to experience another creature which might be worse. Trump is by far the worst thing to happen to our nation in its nearly 249-year history. Yesterday, Easter, Sunday, a day of rebirth and new beginnings, Trump, claiming to be a Christian predicted a dark and dismal future for America. Instead of offering the promise of Jesus Christ to create a new and better world filled with hope and love, he reiterated his hatred for all mankind who refuse to serve him. "Happy Easter to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting and scheming so hard to bring Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, the Mentally Insane, and well known MS-13 Gang Members and Wife Beaters, back into our Country," Mr. Trump said, going on to wish a happy Easter to the "WEAK and INEFFECTIVE Judges and Law Enforcement Officials who are allowing this sinister attack on our Nation to continue." Trump seeks vengeance against those who exposed ...

  I shouldn’t have used this title, but I’m not sorry. I was reading a comment by President Moron when on Air Force One, and I was so angry I began shouting expletives at the computer. I am aware that Trump has no respect for the Constitution, but to claim that he might be running for a third term really pissed me off. But that wasn’t the worst. He continued his big lie, claiming that he won the 2020 election and it was rigged for Joe Biden. Un-fucking believable. Here's the truth. There is an abundance of circumstantial and confirmed evidence that both the 2016 and 2024 elections were bought and paid for by Vladimir Putin, and Trump was complicit with the Russian president. I lost it. Above all I hate lies and liars. The truth is if Trump’s mouth is open, he is either stuffing fast food into his pie hole or about to tell everyone another lie. Liars do not deserve trust or respect, and for me this defines my feelings for the worst man in the world. I have no personal reason to hate...

Inside the most depressed person, there are memories of joy and happiness. The mind can easily be overcome by darkness and despair. However, the good remains but is easily subdued by the weakness of emotions which are very dark and very destructive. There is no doubt that emotions like anger, hatred, envy, revenge, and self-loathing take control when a man looks at himself in the mirror and sees insecurity, failure, and total incompetence. Over the years memories of past successes and joy, both small and large, become memories buried too deep to recall. Donald Trump is a man shaped by his own misdeeds, need for relevance, deep insecurity, and total disregard for others. He is the definition of an all-consuming disease. Malignant Narcissism : [Malignant narcissism is not a formal diagnosis, but instead a common term used to describe a person with traits and symptoms of both narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) and antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). Also called pathological narci...

  He is very old and will be 80 in just 15 months. He wears a bad wig. He attempts to hide his lumpy skin with orange make-up. He is angry, filled with hate, and worships Hitler and Putin. Unable to accept even the smallest of criticisms, he flies into a rage easily. Still can’t name the man who is the focus of this article? I offer one more clue: he is the least qualified man in history to hold any public office. You got it! He is your 47 th president, but not mine: Donald “the Traitor” Trump. He is also known as “Don the Destroyer,” the late Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend, and “Putin’s Puppet.” There are many more, including my own, “Trumpenstein.” Every time I hear the name “Trump” I throw up a little in my mouth. When I hear his irritating voice I mute the television. The latter happens frequently because the failed mainstream media loves him and covers him constantly, although he is nothing but another boring, ridiculous, and sad reality show bad actor. Why am I writing this? ...

One of Trump’s many moronic plans, among Tariffs which will increase prices for consumers, and a national sales tax which will add to the grief of the working class, is a travel ban from several nations into the United States. More than any other industry, this will negatively affect the Tech industry. Microsoft and Google employ students from several nations under the H-1B visa program. It has become difficult to find qualified men and women in our universities who are capable of filling their needs. Much of this problem is the exorbitant cost of higher education in America. Each year American businesses lose some of our greatest minds simply because they cannot afford the cost of higher education. America’s co-president, Elon Musk, has offered his support for the H-1B visa program. However, right-wing extremists with fascist ambitions are demanding an end to the policy. Administrators and faculty from multiple colleges and universities have advised their foreign students to return to...

i If you’ve listened to one Trump speech, you’ve heard them all. Regardless of how they begin, they will always include fear, anger, hatred, and a suggestion of violence in his name. Unable to accept the slightest criticism, Trump is a vengeful man who is incapable of compassion for his fellow man. He has a mental defect known as “malignant narcissism,” and this prevents him from possessing normal human attributes. After Trump was gifted the presidency by the Electoral College in 2016, with the assistance of Vladimir Putin, James Comey, and the mainstream media, the Southern Poverty Law Center reported an 800 percent increase in hate crime. Between 2017 and 2021, every time Trump opened his pie hole, he offered his supporters the beliefs of men and women involved in the Neo-Nazi movement across America. Unless you were visiting another planet between 2015 and today, you are aware that his idols are Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Putin. Read this definition, and tell me you can find one part...

  One of the most American results of the 2024 election was the victory of Sarah McBride. The people of Delaware made history when they chose the first transgender woman to support them in the House of Representatives.S However, right-wing extremist and homophobe, Nancy Mace, from South Carolina, has introduced a bill which would prevent Ms. McBride from using the women’s restrooms in the Capitol Building. Once again, Trump’s “people” prove that my America no longer exists. Our nation has never been a great nation and likely never will be. How easily we forget the Declaration of Independence when it satisfies our personal and twisted beliefs. “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.--That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the govern...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart No surprise, it happened in the strange state of Texas. I sometimes think we should have supported their wish to secede from the Union. In southeast San Antonio, a 63-year-old-man by the name of Jesse Lutzenberger arrived at his polling place to select his choices for the 2024 election. He was wearing one of Trump’s red MAGA caps. He was asked to remove the hat. Texas’ laws forbid wearing any item which promotes one candidate over another in the voting area. He initially complied. However, when he finished voting, he placed his hat on his head as he was walking out of the voting area. A 69-year-old volunteer immediately began to escort him out of the building when Lutzenberger started punching him in the face and chest. The volunteer was treated by EMT’s and sent home. Lutzenberger was arrested at his home and was charged with several crimes. He is in jail with a $30,000 bail required for his release. This is all Trump’s fault. Recently the orange traitor was he...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I may be wasting my time, my number of daily readers has declined. I can only assume that what I have to say is offensive to some. However, this issue is more important than anything else I have to say. I have always promised to offer nothing less than the absolute truth, facts which are denied by millions of Americans. If the truth makes you angry, then don’t read what I have to say. However, I will never cease to claim that “the truth lives here.” From 2013 when I began writing for a Las Vegas newspaper, one thing has never changed: my total disgust with men and women who harbor hatred based on some form of prejudice. IGNORANCE CAN BE FORGIVEN, BUT TO CHOOSE IGNORANCE OVER FACT IS A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY Racism, homophobia, misogyny, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, Xenophobia, and any other form of prejudice is to choose ignorance over fact, over the reality of what it means to be an American citizen. Although support for the Neo-Nazi movement in America began l...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Like the schoolyard bully he is, Trump calls all of his adversaries a variety of meaningless names. He does this because he cannot discuss the issues he knows nothing and cares nothing about. He also engages in these immature actions because he is hiding his true and pitiful inability to use his shrinking brain. He is an old, obese, senile white man. Desperation has made a fool out of many men, and Trump is now numbered among them. Trump explained why he continues his sad efforts to demean his much younger, far more intelligent, and accomplished adversary. "I think I am entitled to personal attacks. I do not have a lot of respect for her. I don't have a lot of respect for her intelligence, and I think she'll be a terrible president. And I think it is very important that we win. And whether the personal attacks are good, bad – I mean, she certainly attacks me personally. She actually called me weird. 'He's weird,'" he said. ...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As the title of a story in the Daily Kos suggests: “He Wanted Violence, He Got It.” It’s nothing new for Trump and other right-wing extremists who support a fascist regime for America to suggest violence and even murder as fair punishment for their rivals. "Even in elementary school, I was a very assertive, aggressive kid. In the second grade I actually gave a teacher a black eye. I punched my music teacher because I didn't think he knew anything about music.” Donald Trump, Art of the Deal, 1987. Now I understand why he was sent to a military boarding school at the age of thirteen. “For many years I’ve said that if someone screws you, screw them back. When somebody hurts you, just go after them as viciously and as violently as you can.” Donald Trump, How to Get Rich, 2004 . “I would bring back waterboarding. And I would bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding.” Donald Trump, 6 February 2016 October 2019 — Trump asks if migrants...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I could never do it. I might think about it, but I find physical violence an act of ignorance, and a lack of ability to solve problems through deliberation and compromise. However, my disdain for Trump allows my thought process to drift into the darkest recesses of my mind and wish that Trump would go away and free our nation from a man who is pure evil: the most-hated man in the world. Yesterday, July 13, 2024, a lone gunman apparently attempted to kill Donald Trump. The orange buffoon is partially to blame. Throughout his many rallies, Trump constantly preaches anger, hatred, revenge, and violence. Much of the harm resulting from Trump’s illegitimate presidency is irreversible. It is logical to assume that those who love our country would consider responding to Trump’s fascist agenda. HOW MY MORNINGS BEGIN I cannot completely explain how I feel about Donald Trump, also known as “Big Adolf.” Consider this: what if you were an original baby boomer, born in 1946,...
