Jimmy Kimmel 1, Trump 0

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Jimmy’s back tonight. After discussions, and probably heated negotiations with Disney, Jimmy Kimmel Live will return to ABC this evening. We will never know the truth about what was discussed, but I can guess. I won’t offer you my opinion, because that’s just what it would be. I have no inside knowledge. What I do know is that Mr. Kimmel had good reason to sue Disney for unlawful termination. Voicing an opinion is free speech, and not a legitimate reason for terminating an employee. I remain upset that Stephen Colbert’s show will end in May. The real reason is obvious. Trump ordered his billionaire/oligarch friends at Paramount to terminate him because his ego was crushed. However, they were smart enough to claim that the reason was a loss of 50 million dollars each year. True or not, this is a valid reason to terminate the popular program. Disney suspending Jimmy Kimmel indefinitely was an attempt to appease the man-child’s affliction with malignant narci...

I Have Had Enough: Haven’t You?

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I thought I knew what to expect next from the worst man in the world. However, over the last couple of weeks, I am not only shocked, I have lost all respect, what little was left, for any and all members of the mainstream media. Trump is literally getting away with murder. First came the firing of Stephen Colbert. There was no cause, it was simply a group of billionaires who own Paramount, the parent company of CBS, obeying their Fuhrer’s demands. Trump is too immature, and mentally deficient, to accept criticism, regardless of how major or minor that might be. In our day, he is my senior by three weeks, Trump is what we called a “pussy.” Next came the assassination of a right-wing extremist who, like his master, Donald Trump, preached anger, hatred, vengeance and violence. Charlie Kirk hated everyone who was not pure white and refused to accept Christianity as the only, true religion. He was not discriminatory about his choice of enemies. Don’t confuse my lack ...

Celebrities Have a Huge Reason to Involve Themselves in our Elections: Trump has an Entire Propaganda Machine on Television

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Late night talk show host, Jimmy Kimmel, spent 19 minutes offering factual information to Trump supporters. He offered multiple reasons why they cannot trust the very old, very obese buffoon. Unfortunately for the popular host, Trump supporters choose to be ignorant and reject facts. A true Trump supporter spends hours each day watching the right-wing propaganda machine, calling itself “Fox News.” It has never been about the news and definitely not about facts. A loyal Trump supporter will never read or watch any information source which refuses to praise the con man. When confronted with the truth, their response is universal: “I don’t believe that.” The truth frightens them. If Trump can use a 24-hour television network to support his lies, Jimmy Kimmel and other talk show hosts are justified in finding ways to make their viewers laugh about Trump’s moronic and fallacious words and actions. Trump would like everything his way. However, this is a fantasy. Trump...
