Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Although it is true that Trump is, obese, suffering from mental and physical deficiencies, what is not is the definition of a ‘man.’ He possesses a single tactic as your illegitimate president. He attempts to bully his adversaries and leaders of other nations. Sadly, in several situations, he is succeeding. Universities, Law Firms, and Presidents, Prime Ministers, etc., are bowing to the schoolyard bully. The truth is defeating a bully requires little effort. All anyone must do is look in his eyes and say “no,” and “get the fuck out of my way.” Trump is a regressive, and those who look backwards are destined to fail. His entire six months and eight days as your illegitimate president have been focused on taking revenge against anyone who opposes his fascist agenda. “Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.” ― Confucius Trump, like he did in 2017-2021, will destroy himself, His malignant narcissism is far more powerful than what little mind he h...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Historians will Remember Trump as many things: a fascist, incompetent, a destroyer of all things good, a sexual predator, a malignant narcissist, a failure in all things, a pathological liar, the most unqualified man in history to reside in the White House, and a convicted felon, a traitor, and a lifetime criminal. What he will never be known for is leadership. If you thought his ‘big lie’ about the 2020 election was as ridiculous a story as you ever heard in your life, Trump is making another attempt to redirect America’s intention from his sexual escapades with Jeffrey Epstein. It is no secret that Trump was, and probably is jealous of President Obama. His popularity was unmatched in the 21 st century, and he remains the only president in modern history not to face an investigation or a scandal. Trump has been under investigation since January of 2017. The fact that President Obama is a Black man is extremely upsetting to the Nazi in the White House. The atta...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart DOGE was another stupid idea which became a reality because an idiot is allowed to violate our nation’s White House. Trump claimed its purpose was to reduce the deficit by trillions of dollars. However, this idea failed. What actually happened made the United States a more dangerous place to live. Men and women who performed jobs necessary to ensure safety and security in America were reduced and dissolved. Domestic terrorism, the result of Trump and his fascist party’s failure to lessen gun violence in America, has been the greatest danger to the American people for a decade. Trump sanctioned DOGE’s firing of healthcare officials, research scientists, men and women who protected our people from government corruption, and those who kept our commercial airlines safe. I worked for a commercial airline for 10 years at LAX. Much of my days were spent in operations. My function was to ensure that every aircraft was supplied with the fuel it required, and the cargo an...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart After four years and six months of Trump as your illegitimate president, I thought it was time to evaluate Trump’s performance. I will list some of the duties, responsibilities, accomplishments, and failures between 2017 and 2021, and his first six months of 2025, and honestly and accurately rate them as “true,” or “false.” Trump kept his campaign promises. False. His most important promises were to end “Greedflation,” and negotiate peace between Putin and Ukraine. The price of necessities continues to grow, and Trump’s ill-advised tariffs will soon force them to rise even higher. The invasion of Ukraine continues. There is no reasonable end expected in the near future. Trump claimed that the Biden economy was a failure, and he would ‘turn it around’ immediately. False. His failed fiscal policy of trickle-down economics has already increased unemployment, and his “big, beautiful bill,” will remove healthcare from millions or our nation’s most vulnerable citizens...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Kristi Noem got what she wanted, and she is in way over her head. The former Governor of South Dakota was awarded for her devotion to the worst illegitimate president in history when he appointed her his Director of Homeland Security, a position for which she has no experience, and no training. Her actions have already proven that she is totally incompetent. A report from the New York Times claims that Noem ignored nearly two-thirds of the distress calls coming from Texas related to the tragic flash floods which may have cost the lives of 300 men, women, and children. Noem replied with anger and denial. “It’s just false,” Noem said on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday. “It’s discouraging that during this time, when we have such a loss of life and so many people’s lives have turned upside down, that people are playing politics with this because the response time was immediate.” “ICE Barbie” doth protest too much. The facts are irrefutable. The Trump administration has ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Too old, and too immature to be your president. This is Donald John Trump. Although he promised to end inflation, better yet “Greedflation,” the soon-to-be octogenarian continues his efforts to enact vengeance on his “enemies.” This is his number one priority, not the future of 340 million Americans. His firing of hundreds of government employees had nothing to do with lowering the national debt. His “big beautiful bill” will add 10 trillion to the deficit. It was all about him. Many of those employees were charged with investigations related to Trump’s many felonies including treason and violating the Espionage Act. Now for a good laugh. Trump’s latest act of vengeance involves something he cannot do, but is too stupid and too senile to face reality. The orange buffoon wants to remove Rosie O’Donnell’s citizenship. O’Donnell, who moved to Ireland after the 2024 election debacle, was born in New York. Trump has a habit of labeling others with names and descripti...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In December of 2019, your illegitimate president was informed by an aide, whose responsibility it was to read the Presidents Daily Brief, that a “probable healthcare emergency was evolving in Asia.” Trump ignored the information. In January of 2020, when the press began to ask questions about a new coronavirus spreading across parts of the world, Trump’s response confirmed his lack of leadership. He stood before the television cameras and lied. “America is better prepared, and it will just go away.” That was his only response, “it will just go away,” until March when Americans began to lose their lives from the deadly effects of Covid-19. After a real President, Joe Biden, created a plan to distribute a life-saving vaccine, the number of deaths caused by Covid-19 exceeded one million. Healthcare experts claim that Trump’s failure to take immediate action in January of 2020 is responsible for at least 10 percent of those deaths. Trump became not only a white-coll...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is a very dumb man. If you don’t like my blunt words, stop reading now. By his own words and actions it is obvious that he did not earn his degree from Wharton. I have no doubt that Daddy Fred bought his diploma in the same manner he purchased deferments which prevented Trump from doing his duty and serving in Vietnam. This is why he had all of his academic records sealed in January of 2017. 99 percent of the world’s economists agree that placing outrageous tariffs on imports is moronic. However, there are two things everyone should learn about the old man defiling our White House. Trump has no idea how to administrate America’s economy. He is a serial failure in the business world, and a seven trillion-dollar budget is far beyond his comprehension. The second reason is based on his only tactic in the business world. Trump is a schoolyard bully. Tariffs are a tactic only a bully would use, not a man educated in an Ivy League business college. Trump’s tarif...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Immigration reform. This is a problem ignored by both political parties for decades. It has become a “hot button” issue for many men and women who watch network news broadcasts, most frequently by the fake news, Fox News. From day one, Trump began his attempts to detain and deport anyone who is not pure white, even if they could prove they were in America legally. We know that he has a very low level of intelligence, and once again he proved my assumption by his own actions. Without immigrants, legal or illegal, two industries will lose millions of dollars, and consumers will pay for his folly. Ask anyone who works in the agriculture industry or in construction, and they will tell you that in 21 st century America it is difficult to find young men and women who are willing to accept jobs in these to industries. Both of these jobs require hard, physical effort. For as long as I can remember, immigrants from our neighbor to the south arrived in the fields of Cent...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Contrary to Trump’s lie, Greedflation continues to grow. Domestic terrorism continues to escalate, making leaving your home a threat to your life. Protest against the fascist actions by Trump and Musk continue. Every day more Americans are losing faith in our government and find reasons to believe that our nation is broken beyond repair. Fear, despair, and mistrust have replaced any feelings of security the American people might have felt prior to January 20, 2025. Between 2017 and 2021, the Trump administration failed to present a single positive accomplishment for the majority of our nation’s people. To the contrary, the orange buffoon’s failure to take timely action when he was made aware of an approaching healthcare emergency, cost more than one million Americans their lives, and nearly placed our nation in a second Great Depression. Experts in healthcare claim that Trump is directly responsible for as many as 100,000 of those lives based on his failure to t...

In June of 2015, Donald John Trump made a life-changing mistake, and he will never recover from his folly. When he declared his intention to win the Republican Party’s nomination for the presidency in 2016, he surrendered all privacy and doubt, exposing the ‘real Donald Trump’ to America and the world. He forever lost his claimed position as a New York socialite. The party was over. From that day until the election on November 8, 2016, he was heavily criticized and even denounced by the vast majority of Republicans. History proves that these same individuals revealed a level of hypocrisy not seen after his illegitimate election. They bowed to the worst man in the world without an iota of dissent. [Susan Collins: The Maine senator wrote an op-ed in The Washington Post on August 8 stating that although she is a lifelong Republican, she will not support the party’s nominee – a decision she says she does not take “lightly.” “Donald Trump does not reflect historical Republican values nor th...

Some “Republican” members of the House are voicing regrets about voting for Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.” I am aware that most Americans believe that members of the legislature read the bills presented to them before casting their votes. They are wrong. Members of the House and Senate rely on their aides to read and analyze each bill presented to them. However, they are far too busy campaigning for their next election, or attending events with the billionaires/oligarchs who pay for their votes to actually read and understand them personally. Uninformed voters were shocked when the “Mother of Fascism,” Marjorie Taylor Greene, expressed some regret while admitting that she had not read the document prior to voting in favor of Trump’s “Big Mistake.” Trump’s former “brother from another mother,” Elon Musk, left Washington but not politics. He has become the biggest critic of Trump’s destructive bill. ["I'm sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore," Tesla and SpaceX CEO Mu...

  One look at Trump’s residence inside Trump Tower on 5 th avenue in New York City, and it is clear that the malignant narcissist has delusions of grandeur. Gold paint is everywhere on everything. It is gawdy and unlivable for any normal human being. The only differences in Trump 2.0 and his original illegitimate presidency in 2017 is that he is exacerbating his destruction of American values at a much faster pace, and is finding ways to spend more of your tax dollars, while reducing the amount of revenue necessary to slow or end the rising national debt. Between 2017 and 2021 Trump averaged more than six million dollars each month using taxpayer money for personal pleasure. He is on pace in 2025 to increase that unfathomable number to ten million each month. Once again, he is reducing taxes for the super-rich, using funding allotted for Medicaid and other necessary funds to justify his homage to those who don’t need it. He hasn’t talked about his most moronic idea, yet, his unnec...

The annual budget for the Pentagon is nearing one trillion dollars. The first time I wrote this number, I was appalled. $1,000,000,000,000. That is 1,000 billion dollars. No working man could possibly imagine how much money that is. The truth is one-half of their annual budget is wasted, according to a non-profit watchdog organization. A couple examples of our military’s fiscal failures. I researched the F-35 fighter a number of years ago. The project was approved in 1995. Testing was completed in 2021. It was approved for mass production, although I cannot find any information about where or if it is in full production in 2025. [The average flyaway cost of an F-35A (the conventional takeoff and landing variant) is around $82.5 million. The F-35B (vertical takeoff and landing) has an average flyaway cost of $109 million, and the F-35C (carrier-launched) is priced at $102.1 million. These prices are for production lots 15-17, which were delivered in 2023, 2024, and 2025.] The F-35 is th...

The Truth: Tariffs are Import Taxes which go into the national Treasury. However, Consumers pay that tax when prices are raised for commodities as importers pay more for their raw goods. Trump Obviously Failed ‘Economics’ in Military Boarding School. I was aware of this fact and knew that his promise to end inflation, or more accurately, “Greedflation,” on “day one,” was a blatant lie. Trump jokingly referred to yesterday, Wednesday, April 2, 2025, and “Liberation Day,” when his ill-advised tariffs would become a reality. [The new tariffs introduced by Mr. Trump on Wednesday include a 10% universal tariff, as well as so-called reciprocal tariffs on more than 60 countries that are trade partners with the U.S. The tariffs will be additive, meaning that imports will face both the universal tariff of 10% plus the specific reciprocal import levies targeting each nation.] Trump lied and said that “eventually prices will be lowered.” The facts and opinions of qualified economists claim the op...

Trump says he will bomb Iran if they refuse to agree to his version of a nuclear arms treaty. A diplomat, he is not. His book, “the Art of the Deal” is another joke. The following quote defines your illegitimate president “Violence is the method of ignorance, the weapon of the weak. The strong of heart and brain need no violence, for they are irresistible in their consciousness of being right.” Alexander Berkman, The ABC of Anarchism Did you vote for Trump? At this point, less than three months since his illegal inauguration, no one will admit to casting their precious ballot for an old fascist with dementia. The worst is yet to come. Trump has threatened to use our military against Americans exercising their First Amendment right to protest. It would be an unlawful act of a wannabe Fuhrer, not a president. The reality is, our military cannot be forced to break the law, and if ordered to do so, it could rightfully turn against the person who gave that order. Someone, somewhere in the w...

Trump 2.0 is a continuation of 2017-2021, he is doing nothing for our country and its people. Trump, “the Dictator Destroyer,” is dismantling important agencies, while he ignores inflation, and the fears of millions of our nation’s people. To damage our country further, the Destroyer selected the worst of the worst to fuck up everything which functioned, including Musk, Rubio, Hegseth, RFK Jr., and the rest. The inmates are running the asylum. Some of the “very important” efforts by your mentally challenged president are forcing Greenland to be part of the U.S., making Canada our 51 st state, ending federal funding for education in the inner cities, dismantling law firms associated with many investigations into Trump’s never ending criminal life, and to sum it all up, “taking revenge on anyone and anything which exposed the real Donald Trump.” Hillary Clinton has the courage to tell the absolute truth. Clinton wrote: “Top Trump administration officials put our troops in jeopardy by sh...

I am a 78-year-old man who is loyal to his country, a man who opposes organized religion, a liberal, meaning I care about others as much as I care about myself, but I do not trust anyone in my government. In fact, I trust no one who is in a position of power, and that includes Trump’s oligarchs/billionaires. It took four decades for me to learn to see the undeniable truth. If you trust Trump, you would have trusted Hitler in 1930’s Germany. Trump uses the same tactics, and they are effective either because Americans are stupid, or because they share his hatred of freedoms, including free thought and the right to do anything which does not infringe upon the rights of others. If you are one of the few adamant supporters of the worst traitor in America’s history, you are undoubtedly a white supremacist and a regressive who wants America to return to “the dark old days.” Since the death of the greatest President in American history in 1945, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, our nation began to de...

It’s obvious that Trump and his co-conspirator, Musk, don’t care, but a revolution is beginning across America. The policies of these old, white men are so vile and offensive, a ground swell of angry protesters are filling town halls across America directing their anger at Republican politicians. At the same time, Vermont Senator, Bernie Sanders and New York Representative, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are holding rallies in opposition to the current plutocracy and the fact that Trump is surrendering America to his 813 oligarchs, and drawing huge crowds of supporters. Facts: Trump, Musk, and their party are Nazis forcing their fascist agenda on the American people. A plutocracy, rule by the super-rich, cannot exist when a democratic government is in control. Trump’s plan is to end democracy, and establish a fascist regime, with himself as its Fuhrer. Don’t believe me? Read the Republican Party’s fascist manifesto, Project 2025, and you will quickly learn the truth. Very few Democrats and I...

One of the prime directives of the Republican Party’s fascist manifesto, Project 2025, was to dismantle the Department of Education. No intelligent or well-educated man or woman who loves his or her country would ever support Trump, Musk, or his Nazi-loving supporters. Trump’s own failings are the reason he hates educated and informed people. Above all he fears the truth and men and women who are far more intelligent than he. I can swear on your bible that Trump is the author of what is a modern adaptation of Mein Kampf. Every idea in the vile and destructive document originated from a promise Trump made during one of his hate rallies. Project 2025 is a 922-page document with step-by-step instructions which if followed closely, will end democracy forever, and establish a fascist regime ruled by one Donald John Trump. Remember this: immediately after his pitiful and illegitimate inauguration on January 20, 2017, the malignant narcissist had all records related to his education sealed. I...
