Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Donny Dictator grew up in a different ‘America’ than yours truly. He was born into a very wealthy family in New York. I grew up poor in West Los Angeles. However, our biggest differences involved what we were taught with words and by example as we grew and became young men. Trump remained in a world of white privilege, while I learned about the real America shared by the majority. I worked hard for everything I have: my education, my home, and my family. Donny Boy was exposed to racism and bigotry from the time he could walk. His father taught him that he was more important, and smarter than anyone else. I was raised by a single mother and my maternal grandparents. They taught me to respect others, regardless of their ethnicity, the color of their skin, or their economic status. I was taught to be humble but confident in my personal abilities. Trump’s entire world was about becoming wealthy and relevant. He learned nothing about what happens in the real America ...

If you saw a recording of Trump’s explanation for placing a 90 day pause on his moronic tariffs, I hope you had as great a laugh as I did. First, he was definitely lying. However, his explanation, although it was a lie, was so convoluted and moronic, I was forced to reevaluate my opinion about his intellect. It is clear that your illegitimate president, Dumbass Trump, is dumber than a bag of rocks. Or maybe not. The stock market crash was followed by a record surge when on Wednesday Trump announced a 90-day delay in the implementation of his tariffs, with the exception of China. Anyone who purchased stocks at their lowest point made billions when Trump placed a moratorium on his tariffs. Is this fraud? Is this stock price manipulation. Trump and his oligarchs must be fully investigated, but will it happen? America has become a nation without laws for the rich and powerful. Was the tariff situation a ‘smokescreen,’ and if so, will an obvious act of insider trading be ignored by the most...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As I began writing about Donald Trump in 2015, I discovered more questions than answers. Facts I did learn confirmed what I expected: Trump was a complete failure at everything he attempted to accomplish. He even did the impossible, lost money as the owner of a casino. I also learned that he was a draft dodger. Daddy Fred purchased two exemptions from a doctor, claiming bone spurs on his feet. I learned that he was a racist, like his father. I discovered what appears to be a relationship with Vladimir Putin beginning in 1987. It was no secret that he was a sexual predator and engaged in multiple extramarital relationships during all three marriages. One of his closest friends was fellow sexual deviate, Jeffrey Epstein. After researching his business interests, I discovered multiple bankruptcies. His businesses were saved with the assistance of Vladimir Putin, Russian oligarchs, and the Saudi Royal family. Like many other political writers, I wanted to learn more...
