Trump is a weak and powerless schoolyard bully who obeys his master, Vladimir Putin. The enormous damage he has done to our nation over the last 10 years cannot be accredited solely to one obese, very old man who is in advanced stages of dementia. Our entire government, the media, and Trump’s oligarchs continue to hide the truth from the 340 million people who in reality are the United States of America. The fact that the American people are suffering from a dysfunctional government, composed of corrupt politicians, a Supreme Court which ignores its singular responsibility, and an illegitimate president whose loyalty belongs to the Russian president explains how the demise of America has become a reality. If you choose to assume that my allegations are part of a conspiracy theory, you are sadly mistaken and misinformed. This story began early in 2016. Our government was informed by all 12 security agencies that they were investigating their belief that Vladimir Putin was attempting to ...

Inside the most depressed person, there are memories of joy and happiness. The mind can easily be overcome by darkness and despair. However, the good remains but is easily subdued by the weakness of emotions which are very dark and very destructive. There is no doubt that emotions like anger, hatred, envy, revenge, and self-loathing take control when a man looks at himself in the mirror and sees insecurity, failure, and total incompetence. Over the years memories of past successes and joy, both small and large, become memories buried too deep to recall. Donald Trump is a man shaped by his own misdeeds, need for relevance, deep insecurity, and total disregard for others. He is the definition of an all-consuming disease. Malignant Narcissism : [Malignant narcissism is not a formal diagnosis, but instead a common term used to describe a person with traits and symptoms of both narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) and antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). Also called pathological narci...

    Republicans don’t know or don’t care that the citizens of the richest and most populous state in the Union, California, are Americans. In fact they are true Americans while Republicans offer their fealty to Trump and his puppeteer, Vladimir Putin. I grew up in Los Angeles. I will always be grateful to have lived in the greatest city, the greatest state, until I was in my early 40’s. No other state offers such a variety of lifestyles. No other state offers the opportunities available in California. I lived in Los Angeles when many terrible fires occurred in Malibu, Laurel Canyon, and other wooded areas when the Santa Ana winds blew in from the east. However, I could never imagine the tragedies which are devasting such beautiful areas of Southern California today. As of today, Monday, January 13, 2025, more than 12,300 structures have burned and 24 lives have been lost. And the winds will be worse today according to Los Angeles weathermen. H...

The highest court in the land gave full immunity to traitor Donald Trump on July 1, 2024. The Supreme Court’s biased decision declared once and for all that America is a nation without laws. “The clearest way to show what the rule of law means to us in everyday life is to recall what has happened when there is no rule of law. "... we have been warned by the power of modern weapons, that peace may be the only climate possible for human life itself ... There must be law, steadily invoked and respected by all nations, for without law, the world promises only such meager justice as the pity of the strong upon the weak." Dwight D. Eisenhower This quote from our nation’s 34 th President, and one of the architects of D-Day on June 6, 1944, clearly stated what has become a reality in today’s America. I have no respect for anyone who refuses to call the events which occurred on January 6, 2021 what it was: a coup; an attempt to overthrow our nation’s democratic government. Anyone who...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As the title of a story in the Daily Kos suggests: “He Wanted Violence, He Got It.” It’s nothing new for Trump and other right-wing extremists who support a fascist regime for America to suggest violence and even murder as fair punishment for their rivals. "Even in elementary school, I was a very assertive, aggressive kid. In the second grade I actually gave a teacher a black eye. I punched my music teacher because I didn't think he knew anything about music.” Donald Trump, Art of the Deal, 1987. Now I understand why he was sent to a military boarding school at the age of thirteen. “For many years I’ve said that if someone screws you, screw them back. When somebody hurts you, just go after them as viciously and as violently as you can.” Donald Trump, How to Get Rich, 2004 . “I would bring back waterboarding. And I would bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding.” Donald Trump, 6 February 2016 October 2019 — Trump asks if migrants...
