Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart osed of professional liars; they are also hypocrites. One incident when President Biden fell asleep was broadcast dozens of times on their right-wing propaganda machine. The ir own comments would have embarrassed them if they had any pride or any respect fo r th emsleves .   Beginning with pictures from Trump’s felony trial in New York , Trump has been taped as he fell sound asleep m ultiple times . The most recent occasion was during a cabinet meeting while his minions were offering unwarranted praise for their Fuhre r.   Because it was Trump, Fox made a falla cious claim that he had been working all night. I have no idea whether or not it was the same night, but on one occasion he sent m or e than 750 messages to his followers on Truth Social over a period of five hours.   Trump is too old and feeble to be the President of the United States. His mental faculties are clearly in steep decline. For the record, Trump’s schedule in the Ova...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It’s not the first time. After all, Trump is the oldest, most obese, white man to ever be illegitimately elected to the highest office in our country. He has been seen dozing off at multiple events, including his own criminal trial. However, a few days ago, after announcing a decrease in the price of weight loss drugs, very important, while his HHS Secretary, Robert Kennedy Jr. began his own speech, it was obvious that he fell asleep in front of cameras from most of the world’s nations. Trump, then only a few years younger than the President, constantly made an issue of Mr. Biden’s age. Now, halfway to becoming an octogenarian on June 14, 2026, he is confirming my allegation that at the age of 80, or a few years younger, no man or woman can possibly lead a nation whose average age is 38.4 years. If Trump was 60, he would still be too old and totally unfit to hold any public office. He has been inflicted with malignant narcissism since he was a young man. In fact...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If you read me regularly, I frequently offer my opinion that Trump would not complete his second term as your illegitimate president just weeks after the inauguration. I am no longer alone. Other political writers are noticing a steep decline in his physical and mental abilities. What did you expect? Although I expected the truth to come into the light of day, confirming that the 2016 and 2024 elections were “rigged by Putin,” Trump is the oldest man ever elected, legally or illegally, to the presidency. If we look at Trump’s “second coming” on January 20, 2025, it was immediately clear that Trump lacks any ability to think clearly. Bringing Elon Musk into his administration was ignorant and irresponsible. Musk, like Trump, had no experience at any level in government. Trump claimed that he would reduce the national debt by at least two trillion dollars. He did not At the same time, Trump was planning to place tariffs on everyone, including our closest allies, d...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump promised to end the “war” in Ukraine on “Day One.” Six months and nine days later the invasion continues. During his golf excursion to Scotland a reporter asked him about his frequent trips to golf courses in America. His response was such a big lie, it made me laugh out loud. "We put out fires all over the world. We did one yesterday, as you know, we stopped a war, but we stopped about five wars,” Trump said, while standing on a golf green, Tuesday. “So that's ah, much more important than playing golf. As much as I like it, it's much more important." Although his official schedule has not been posted, on the rare occasion Trump was in the White House between 2017 and 2021 his “office hours” were between 11 in the morning and two or three in the afternoon. When he was in the Oval Office, he wasn’t. He was in an adjoining room watching television. The undeniable truth is Donald Trump has never worked a full day in his pitiful 79 years on t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I am the perfect person to confirm that Trump is far too old to be your president. The orange buffoon is older than me by three weeks. If we both live another year, we will be octogenarians. A few facts only those of us who reach such a ‘venerable age’ think about and understand. At the age of 79, I have surpassed the average life expectancy of an American male. The average age in 2025 is 76.1. I would be lying if I told you that mortality is never in my thoughts. I’m not obsessed or greatly concerned with that fact, but it is reality. Every human being has an expiration date. Unlike fresh fruit at the grocery store, we do not know what that date might be. I do know that I am at an age when the basic joys of life have become fewer, or non-existent. All I can do is deal with it and enjoy what life continues to offer me. All that aside, I know that neither I nor Trump should be America’s president. Age is a factor when your responsibility is the welfare and safety...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Clearly, Trump is suffering from dementia and the natural effects of being a man far too old to lead a nation of 340 million people, with an average age of 38.5 year of age. He became 79 years old on June 15, older than President Biden was on January 20, 2021. Today, while the rest of America was celebrating “Independence Day,” Trump was busy signing his “big, beautiful bill,” a bill which is widely opposed by most of our nation’s people. For four years fake Republicans and its propaganda machine, Fox News, attacked Mr. Biden for being an older American, not that he was an incompetent president. The truth is, Biden was the most effective president since Bill Clinton. An example from today. Like all legislation under Trump’s failed leadership, his tax and spend bill will harm the majority, and allow his 813 oligarchs to place more of their outrageous profits in offshore accounts. Trump’s mental demise allowed him to view the situation differently. [On Friday, bef...

What did Trump do after placing huge tariffs on 185 countries, with the exceptions of Russia and Saudi Arabia. He went golfing for the 21 st time out of 78 days in office. Each time he travels to one of his golf courses or to Mar-a-Lago, his personal pleasure costs taxpayers a minimum of $650,000. Therefore, although he is taking away your retirement funding, in less than three months he spent $13,650,000. Now to get down to reality: what is he allowed to do legally and illegally? Legally: ·        make treaties with the approval of the Senate. ·        veto bills and sign bills. ·        represent our nation in talks with foreign countries. ·        enforce the laws that Congress passes. ·        act as Commander-in-Chief during a war. ·        call out troops to protect our nation against an attack. · ...

  Beginning in 1956, 14 presidents have lived in the White House which I remember. After coming home from school, turning on our black and white television, and watching Dwight Eisenhower’s second presidential nomination, an interest in our nation’s political system began to grow in my young brain. However, I have not watched many of the inaugurations on January 20. I can only remember five. After most of our presidential elections, I was seldom excited about the man who would be leading our nation for the next four years, and in at least five elections, I was very disappointed in the results, positive that our nation would move backwards under their failed leadership, and on each occasion, I was right. However, on January 20, 2017 and again on this coming Monday, you will not find me in front of my television. I am excited about Monday, but only because the NCAA Football Championship will be played that evening. Go Notre Dame! I am the opposite of excited...

  I guess I have to say it again: “if Trump’s piehole is open, he’s lying.” In another of his rambling speeches, filled with gibberish and unintelligible phrases, Trump offered another lie. Why? Because the majority of Californians reject a Trump presidency and will never accept him as their leader. It is clear that Trump is Beelzebub on earth. In a speech made from his fat, old, rich, white man’s playpen, Mar-a-Lago, Trump blamed the horrific fires occurring in Southern California on a shortage of water caused by Governor Gavin Newsome’s policies. He also claimed that President Biden has used all available FEMA funds and there are none left for him when he takes the oath of office in just 11 days. That oath will be nothing but another lie. Of course, both allegations are blatant lies. Newsome has never received a bill to sign related to water restrictions in California. He literally does not know what he’s talking about, regardless of the subject. Remember, he actually suggested t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The media constantly covered President Biden, pointing to his age in support of Trump’s baseless claims about his fitness to be your president. Trump is 78 and 18 months after the election he will be an octogenarian. He fell asleep at his criminal trial, and recently nodded off at two campaign events. Trump’s low level of intelligence has always been a problem for the failed, wannabe billionaire. However, during his rallies it has become evident that what mental capabilities he possessed are in steep decline. He is unfit for any office, and definitely unqualified to lead a nation of 330+ million people. I am just three weeks younger than the orange buffoon. I am retired, with the exception of my continuous efforts to inform the American people and write my novels. An 80-year-old, obese, mentally challenged man should retire and disappear from the public forever. The average age of all Americans is 38.4 years. An octogenarian is out of touch with the majority of ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart History proves that for the last nine years the mainstream media allowed Trump to lie to the American people in front of the television cameras without demanding any admission of falsehood or retraction from the orange buffoon. History also proves that the tale of Trump’s life begins and ends with a pattern of lies and playing the role of a con man. Although Trump’s “basement dwellers” refuse to accept the truth, others, like me, have followed “the real Donald Trump” and what we learned is based on fact not fiction. Over the last 78 years Trump has struggled to create an illusion. However, facts prove that if he had not received assistance from leaders of foreign nations, he would have never received notoriety or credibility. He would have become penniless and the events of the last nine years would never have happened. THE DISEASE IS MALIGNANT NARCISSIM From birth until today, Trump’s history reveals a desperate need for attention and validation. Notable mental...
