Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Liz Cheney released her memoir. In it she accurately describes the dangers posed to our nation by Donald Trump and his MAGA Republicans. I just read an article on “The Daily Kos.” It is written by Will Cambridge, and the title is: “Why Does it Take Liz Cheney to Say What Biden and All Democrats Should Be Saying?” The former Representative from Wyoming, and daughter of a vice-president, Ms. Cheney offered a legitimate description of Trump, calling him a “wannabe dictator,” and a “fascist.” She claims that a Trump victory in 2024 would be the end of the United States of America, and added: “A vote for Donald Trump may mean the last election that you ever get to vote in," she warned. The entire book is an accurate evaluation of what has happened to the former “Party of Lincoln,” and how Trump has become the greatest danger to America’s existence. The real question is “why haven’t Democrats offered these truths before?” Why did they allow Trump to go unpunish

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   The Republican Party experienced its final implosion on January 20, 2017. Its demise began on January 20, 1981. It took 36 years to complete the process, and under the direction of Vladimir Putin the process reached its climax when Trump was illegitimately elected by the Electoral College on November 8, 2016. This may surprise some of you, but as a lifelong Independent I can tell you that the last man residing in the White House who supported the principles and morals of the Grand Old Party, who was a true patriot and cared for the future of his country was Richard Millhouse Nixon. If we judge our presidents by their accomplishments and how they affected the largest number of our nation’s people, the best President by far was Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Included in the top five would be Richard Nixon. Sadly, what he will be remembered for by historians is his ambition to receive a second term and the felonies he committed when he approved the break-in at the De

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   First, “the truth lives here,” and I must reiterate my many statements offering the fact that the Republican Party is dead and has been buried since January 2017. Not a single principle or ideal of the once Grand Old Party exists today within the clowns who claim to be “Republicans.” When every “Republican” offered unconditional support to an obese, old, white man who is a confirmed sexual predator, a white supremacist, and spent four years attempting to end democracy in America, and was elected with the assistance of Vladimir Putin and the mainstream media on January 20, 2017, it was clear that the Party of Lincoln was nothing more than a memory. The right-wing has become “the party of no” under the leadership of Moscow Mitch McConnell. They do nothing with the exception of attempting to overturn laws which benefit the majority of the American people, and attack the men and women on the left side of the aisle for doing the right thing. The party’s despicable

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Not a single “Republican” is qualified to lead our nation. This is not an opinion, it is a fact. If they claim to be patriots and love their country’s people, they are lying. They are all hypocrites who ignore the vast majority of our nation’s people in lieu of their super-rich owners. In the ignorant, red state of Iowa, Trump and his primary rival, the worst governor in our nation, Ron DeSantis, met head-to-head on Saturday evening. (I decided to begin this with a laugh. Two old, braindead, would-be fascists professing to love their country while lying every time they open their pie holes.) First, an honest observation. If these two ugly, angry, old white men are the best the once Grand Old Party has to offer, the “Republican Party” is dead and gone forever. Even the hypocrisy of Mitt Romney cannot convince men and women with average intelligence that Trump should be nominated by a party which was once known as the “Party of Lincoln.” He is an insult not only
