Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Now it’s watches. Previously it was “non-fungible tokens,” posters, the ugliest tennis shoes in history, bibles, and copies of his mugshot. Trump is desperate for money, and would sell individual hairs from his wigs if he thought he could make a buck. The very fact that a presidential candidate is attempting to sell what can only be compared to worthless trinkets which can be won or purchased at a carnival would be an unacceptable embarrassment for a real man or woman. Trump’s desperation forces him to plunge deeper and deeper into an abyss from which he cannot recover. He is unfit to lead his own family, definitely not a nation of 330+ million people. I know what I have read contained in volumes about Trump’s pitiful 78 years on mother earth, but only family members have insight into the entire expanse of events and personal circumstances which compose nearly eight decades. One of these individuals is Trump’s estranged niece, Mary Trump. She recently offered in...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Jacky Rosen has worked for Nevada. She has reached across party lines to improve the lives of all residents of the Silver State. Her challenger is a Trump lacky, Sam Brown. Like his Fuhrer, he is nothing but a con man who will tell lies constantly and pander to specific groups to win votes. His ads are lies. He is vehemently opposed to any and all abortions. He is from a billionaire family, and will not serve working class Nevadans, and their struggle for affordable housing. Brown continues with his attempts to create the illusion that he is from a small town and a middle class American. This is far from the truth. In 2022, he attempted to unseat Nevada’s other Senator, Catherine Cortez-Masto. He failed, but during the campaign made the following fallacious claims. “I wasn’t born into power. I’m from small-town America,” he said in the 2022 ad. To hear Brown talk, he comes from the most humble of backgrounds. His was a “sort of working-class family,” he told rad...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I often write about how a single diversion, a subtle change, can alter the future of a life, a nation, or the world. One of the greatest disasters to happen to America, and the world was revealed today in an article written by Bill Pruitt for “the Slate.’ This is a story about “the Apprentice,” and its enormous efforts to remake Donald Trump into a respected and admired man. Mr. Pruitt was a producer for the first two years of “the Apprentice.” All employees were required to sign a non-disclosure agreement preventing the release of any information occurring when the cameras were turned off. Now, 20 years later, and with Trump in court for a crime involving an NDA, Mr. Pruitt is exposing the “Real Donald Trump.” CREATING A FAKE DONALD TRUMP The producers knew that if the show was to succeed, Trump would require a drastic makeover. Although he was well-known in New York as a slimy businessman, desperate to become important and relevant, this could not be the man v...
