Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The confirmed malignant narcissist occupying our White House today, has an incurable need to have his humongous ego satisfied constantly. The pretend leader of the free world is an immature 80-year-old schoolyard bully without common sense or average intelligence. Trump has destroyed our nation’s most sacred residence, the White House, with the destruction of the East Wing and alterations within what remains of the most famous building in the world. Trump considered the White House a “fixer upper” in 2017. Unfortunately, the orange buffoon has zero taste and absolutely no class. Many areas of the People’s Home look more like the inside of a brothel than the residence of the world’s most powerful man. In a recent speech, President Barack Obama described the renovations in a more colorful and accurate way. Our nation’s 44 th President described today’s White House as if “Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory.” TRUMP EXPLODED BECAUSE THE TRUTH HURTS Trump’s r...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s next, desperate efforts to rig the 2026 Midterm Elections. What concerns me is how corrupt the Supreme Court of the United States has become over the last two years. The Constitution clearly guarantees the right of each state to conduct elections in any manner they deem safe and fair. If the federal government attempts to interfere in those elections, it is violating the Law of the Land. The only government agency which could become involved is the Supreme Court if the constitutionality of the process was in question. TRUMP WILL DO ANYTHING TO REMAIN IN POWER, INCLUDING VIOLATING THE CONSTITUTION Trump is not concerned about the law: his Supreme Court gave him absolute immunity, placing him above all laws, federal and state. He has openly attempted bribery, threatened states who support “No Kings,” and continues to make attempts to void voter registration, among others. There is no longer any doubt that Trump colluded with Putin to win the 2016, 2020, an...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart For 80 years, Trump has attempted to be “the best” at something. Although he claims to “know more than anyone about everything, the truth is the exact opposite. What Trump has become is a common criminal. Although his entire life is a tale of crime and debauchery, he is not very good at being the worst man in the world. TRUMP IS ACCOMPLISHING HIS GOALS WHILE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CONTINUE TO SUFFER Trump never read “Presidency for Dummies.” He has no idea what he is doing, and simply doesn’t care. The truth is, Trump sought a second term for three reasons: to avoid going to prison, to enhance his personal wealth, and to accomplish his handler’s lifelong dream. AMERICA’S GREATEST CRIMINAL REMAINS A FREE MAN Trump’s crimes number more than the combined fingers on my hands, the toes on my feet, and the hairs on my head. However, two of his crimes are unforgivable and punishable by death. I was watching television on January 6, 2021 when a banner filled the screen ann...

Trump Has Finally Accomplished Something in His Wasted 80 Years, He is the Lowest Rated and Most Hated President in History   Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump claims that he is campaigning for Republican candidates who are facing defeat on November 3 rd . The truth is, he is attempting to soothe his fragile ego. It’s not working. Heckled in Texas, jeered at a football game in Knoxville, Tennessee, and standing before a half empty venue in Ohio on Monday evening would convince a normal man that he has earned the lowest approval ratings in history, in some polls below 30 percent, and face reality: he is the most hated man in the world. Trump has become an albatross for Republican candidates. He and his fascist party deserve everything bad which happens to them. They made lives more difficult for most Americans for the last 10 years. It’s time for the orange buffoon and his minions to slide back into the slime at the bottom of a cesspool. BEYOND INCOMPETENCE AND DISPLAYS OF APATHY TOWARD...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart A fact and a serious problem rarely discussed in America is our nation’s entire justice system. At best, a grade of C- is appropriate.  Some of these problems did not exist 70-80 years ago. However, when politics gets involved, the worst always happens. This is America in the 21 st century. WHAT AN ORIGINAL BABY BOOMER EXPERIENCED I am an original baby boomer, born in the summer of 1946. Although I was born in Idaho, my home, the place where I was raised, was in West Los Angeles, California. Where I grew up, most of the people living around me were white. I think my youth like the cover on the Saturday Evening Post. Each issue had a print of a Norman Rockwell painting displaying the most pleasant situations and occasions in our nation’s history. The one which made the greatest impression on me was a single policeman, in his blue uniform, handing an ice cream cone to a boy. I believed this was an accurate depiction of the relationship between law enfo...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is so desperate, so afraid that he is about to lose all of his unconstitutional powers, granted him by six corrupt and biased Supreme Court Justices, he is resorting to even more ludicrous and ugly efforts. Lies are standard operating procedure for the orange buffoon, but calling Democrats and Independents “communists?” It may surprise the dumbest and most poorly educated man in America, but most Americans understand that communism is an extreme level of socialism, and always ruled by a ruthless dictator. All the working class is asking for is leaders who will include the majority in consideration when our nation’s economy flourishes. A large number now favor a form of “Democratic Socialism.” However, Trump’s preference is fascism, and wants to be the second coming of Adolf Hitler, his personal hero. Only the super-rich are allowed to live the “American dream.” The American people, the majority, also known as the “working class, are fed up with the fact th...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart When Trump takes his last breath, and that can’t come soon enough, an entire profession will be fighting over who gets to examine his very little brain. I am positive it will look like a bunch of Christmas tree lights before they’re untangled. Knowing his history, it is an undeniable fact that Trump’s thoughts and actions are void of logical thought or common sense. Living for 80 years in a very small place, a place reserved for wealthy, white, racists and bigots prevented him from experiencing normality in any form. Let’s be totally honest: no normal person would wake up one morning, desperate to redirect the most discussed topic of the day, his very close relationship with pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, and think, “I know what to do, I’ll start a war with another country without provocation.” USING YOUR MONEY FOR A POLITICAL AD Yesterday, while watching an NFL game, when there was a timeout, Trump appeared on the screen. The wrinkled old man walked, or more accur...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is no secret among informed American citizens that Trump idolized Adolf Hitler. He read the Fuhrer’s speeches over and over again, dreaming about the possibilities he might achieve in his own life. In 1987, Trump and his first trophy wife, Ivana, traveled to Moscow at the invitation of the KGB. Vladimir Putin was its rising star. As you might expect, there are no records of their initial meeting. However, in 2013, while attending the Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow, former MI-6 agent, Christopher Steele, compiled a dossier revealing secret meetings between Putin and Trump. Although the truth about Putin’s confirmed interference in the 2016 Presidential Election was not revealed until the election was certified by the Electoral College, it is now a proven fact that the Russian President’s interference was a factor in the results. Other reasons were misogyny among young male voters, James Comey’s 11 th hour announcement about a new investigation into Hillary C...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If your family is like mine, wanting to be informed about what is happening to our country every day, your day probably begins like this: someone says, “you have to see this.” You respond, “what’s the moron done now.” Trump is unpredictable because he has no idea what he is doing until he makes another stupid and destructive decision. His decisions fail to accomplishment anything of a positive nature. However, he always embarrasses himself, and causes more damage to our nation’s people. When he can’t have his way with something, he reverts to what he is, a spoiled, white, rich child, and “throws another tantrum.” This is typical for anyone who was raised without taking responsibility for his or her own actions or inaction. DJT uses his military like a toddler sitting on his bedroom floor, deciding which toy to play with, or destroy next. AS WE GROW OLDER, SOME PEOPLE BECOME CHILDREN AGAIN Trump is a very old man. He became an octogenarian on June 14, 2026. Altho...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As the midterm elections draw near, it’s time to rate your illegitimate president on what he has done, and what he has not done. First, the only thing he has done is to give additional tax breaks to the super-rich: his oligarchs/billionaires. That’s it. The issues he has either refused to address, or situations he made worse, are numerous. Trump destroyed the East Wing of the White House. He is building an unwanted and unnecessary ballroom. This fiasco will cost taxpayers nearly a quarter of a billion dollars if it is ever completed. During his administration, President Obama, spent about $34 million repairing the reflecting pool on the National Mall. Trump, attempting to undo another accomplishment of a real president, gave a “no bid” contract to a personal friend to make changes. It was a disaster, and remains incomplete. The cost, so far, is about $25 million. Trump’s celebration of our nation’s 250-year anniversary cost more than $150 million; most of it tax...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Midterm elections are less glamorous, less exciting, than general elections. However, they have an even greater importance than ever in 2026. On November 3 rd , the American people will vote for all 435 members of the House and one-third of the Senate. Pay great attention to this singular fact. In 2020’s historical election, a vote for Joe Biden was a vote against the worst president in history, Donald John Trump. Although President Biden became a very good, very effective president, most Americans simply wanted to evict our nation’s biggest mistake. A VOTE FOR ANY REPUBLICAN IS A VOTE FOR TRUMP The Republican Party began its demise in 1981, and completely disappeared on January 20, 2017. Every man and woman running for office under the banner of the former Grand Old Party exists for one reason, to serve their king, their Fuhrer. Free thought and any form of opposition to Trump’s evil agenda is forbidden. Today, both houses of Congress are controlled by Trump’s ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart On February 28, 2026, Trump unilaterally began missile strikes against the sovereign nation of Iran, without provocation. Iran has responded with counterattacks, killing a reported 18 members of United States military personnel. Seven months later, there is no indication that Trump’s war will ever end. Trump claims that this is not a war, because if it is, he has committed another huge violation of the Constitution. The truth is, he chose to attack Iran to create a distraction from his close association with pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. Seven months later He is unable to find a way out of this mess and not be blamed for another failure in a life composed of losses and defeat. IF YOU CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE WORST MAN IN THE WORLD, YOU WILL NOT LIKE THESE FACTS War: a state of usually open and declared armed hostile conflict between states or nations (2): a period of such armed conflict This definition confirms another constitutional violation by America’s most pro...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Man cannot exist without humor: life is too difficult to survive without it. Regardless of your race, sex, religious affiliation or none at all, or your economic status, it is a fact that we all face more difficulties than pleasure in a lifetime. Humor in its many forms provides an escape from the harshness of our very existence. Movies, television, books, and stand-up comics provide a little respite from the challenges we face every day. In my 80 years there has been one person above all others who provided a source for comics, writers, and water-cooler chuckles: the President of the United States. THE MOST INTELLIGENT PEOPLE I ENCOUNTERED IN MY LIFE HAD A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR I liked “Ike,” but the first American President I remember well was John F. Kennedy. His speeches inspired young Americans to become involved in their nation’s governance, and instilled a feeling of patriotism none of our nation’s leaders accomplished since. JFK used humor to hold the att...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart This story will be short. The facts are undeniable, and the truth is found in another failure by the world’s least successful man. Fact number one: Obama spent about 34 million dollars repairing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The job was completed during the Biden administration. Lie number one: Trump lied again, claiming that Obama and Biden spent “hundreds of millions of dollars on the project.” Fact number two: Since 2017, Trump has attempted to undo the many accomplishments of his predecessors. He decided to redesign the pool, “putting his name on it.” Lie number two: Trump claimed the project would cost 12 million dollars. His folly is reaching the 30-million-dollar mark. DETAILS ABOUT ANOTHER TRUMP FAILURE Trump had a “better idea.” The science denier wanted to paint the bottom of the pool “flag blue.” The pool is under the auspices of the Parks and Recreation Department. Any project under their control requires three bids by certified contractors. ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Over an 80-year span, I have heard many speeches. Most are boring and without substance. Only a few of our presidents had the ability to inspire emotions of hope and feelings of trust from their audience. Most were in the same category of what I call “politispeak.” None of them resorted to name calling or complained about “how badly they were treated by the press.” None of them preached and incited anger, hatred, and the commission of violence until Donald John Trump. He is not “different,” he is disgusting and an embarrassment to every true American. WHAT THE HELL DID HE EXPECT? Trump chose himself to be the “key speaker” at last Friday’s Correspondents' Dinner (2). Big mistake. Trump has no sense of humor, but he tried to be funny. He was attempting to be funny in front of people he chose to constantly berate and insuledt. What did he expect? I admit that I have called “Dementia Donny” names for 11 years. He earned every one of them. During the 2016 campai...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump told “his people” time and time again: “I love spending other people’s money.” Over the last 18 months we learned that for once he told the truth. His tacky remodel of the White House, a ballroom no one but he wants, the destruction of the reflecting pool, and an arch will cost taxpayers billions of dollars. Add to this the fact that his many trips on Air Force One to play golf, or travel to Mar-a-Lago are a waste of more than 10 million dollars each month. MORE PROMISES MADE, MORE PROMISES BROKEN Campaign promises which were actually lies: “I will end inflation on day one.” “I will end the invasion of Ukraine on day one.” “With me as your president, there will be no more wars in the Middel East.” There is one truth, one irrefutable fact involving everything Trump is doing while pretending to be your president. His 989 oligarchs are profiting from another Trump presidency, while the average American is struggling at the grocery store and the gas pump. Trum...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Moscow Mitch McConnell was the worst Senate Majority Leader in history. His record proves that he never accomplished a single thing in his lifetime which improved the quality of life for the average American. Everything he did was designed to enhance his personal life and increase his failing party’s power. It was Moscow Mitch who broke his own rule in 2020 and placed Amy Coney Barrett in the Supreme Court. This gave the Trump-supporting Supreme Court a super majority. With this super majority, MM accomplished his career goal. On June 24, 2022, six corrupt justices removed a woman’s right to make decisions about her own mental and physical health. Roe V Wade was overturned by a vote of 6-3. REPUBLICANS ARE HIDING THE TRUTH Moscow Mitch has been hospitalized for more than three weeks. No one can verify his condition, although some fake Republicans claim that they have spoken to the 84-year-old traitor. Personally, I hope he is no longer among the living. Like Don...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Nevada Governor, Joe Lombardo, is a Trump Lacky. He is also, like his handler, a tool of the super-rich. If you live in Nevada, you have likely watched his expensive and professionally produced commercials. In them, professional actors claim that Lombardo has improved our state’s healthcare, schools, and made housing affordable. Here are the irrefutable facts. FOUR YEARS LATER, NEVADA IS IN A HEALTHCARE CRISIS Joe Lombardo became Nevada’s governor in 2022. Like his hero, Donald Trump, he has accomplished nothing. The truth reveals that the Silver State is in crisis when the subject is healthcare. MY ADVIDE: DON’T GET SICK IN NEVADA [In 2026, Nevada consistently ranks near the bottom for overall healthcare and health system performance. Key indexes place the state as 31st, 42nd, and 50th nationally. Nevada struggles with a severe shortage of primary care providers and frequently ranks second in the U.S. for residents avoiding care due to high costs.] I can attest...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump and the Trump Party are composed of liars, incompetents, and racists. I have said many times that “if Trump’s lips are moving, he’s lying.” Trump loves to brag about other Democratic president’s accomplishments, claiming them as his own. However, when he fails, which is every time he attempts to do anything, he blames his debacle on someone else. A FAILURE A MINUTE Like his lies, Trump’s failures have reached numbers too big to count. And the saga continues. First, and foremost, you must know that everything Trump attempts is an effort to satisfy his insatiable ego. This fact is the result of a lifelong mental disease known as “malignant narcissism,” combined with advancing dementia. His latest efforts, and therefore his latest failures, involve the reflecting pool on the National Mall, and his tacky plan to celebrate our nation’s 250 th anniversary. He is calling it the “Great American State Fair.” When it began this week, the water in the reflecting poo...
