  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart America has been guilty of Imperialism for most of its 249 years. We “stick our noses” into situations in other countries and make the conditions worse. Imperialism: “a policy of extending a country's power and influence through diplomacy or military force.” In my 79 years, a relatively short period of time in the history of the world, I have witnessed American imperialism in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Afghanistan may be the worst example of the ignorance of an American president and his administration in history. George W. Bush ordered an attack inside Afghanistan on October 7, 2001. He told the American people that our intelligence agencies had located the architect of the attacks on 9/11 in a country with a long history of wars, and harboring criminals. Bin Laden was located in a cave located in the Tora Bora area of Afghanistan. However, when Bush learned that the actual area where bin Laden was located was in Pakistan, he ended...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Between 2017 and 2021, Trump nearly placed our nation in another Great Depression. Over one million Americans lost their lives from the effects of Covid-19 while Trump told us, “it will just go away.” However not a single positive accomplishment can be found over those four, long years. In 2025, your illegitimate president is once again ignoring the needs and wishes of America’s majority while he pretends to be the leader of 340 million people. In just nine days, the orange buffoon will have completed the first year of his four-year term. I know it seems much longer because the damage he has caused to our nation is 100 times worse than the first. Trump began his attack on America with the creation of DOGE, Department of Government Efficiency. To lead this new and unnecessary department, he chose a billionaire with no experience in government but had donated more than 350 million dollars to his campaign; Elon Musk. In Nine Days, Trump Will Have Been Your Illegiti...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Everyone’s life is a process, a process of learning from our experiences, our successes, and our mistakes. Nearing the age of 80, I hope and believe that I have learned many things about myself and the world in which I live. I cannot hide my physical disabilities. However, I believe that my mind is intact, and although I am nearing the definition of “octogenarian,” my memory of the last eight decades is clear. I am who I am because I followed the rules. I worked hard to care for myself and my family, and although I had my share of failures, I always tried to do the right thing. I am what it means to be an average American. Trump was born into a world which can only be described as “ultimate white privilege.” Not once in his life has he worked a full day. Studying him for the last 13 years, it is obvious that he never attended his classes at a military boarding school, Fordham, or Wharton. He knows nothing about anything, including the English language. Over the ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As the Antichrist, Trump hates Christmas, almost as much as he hates all non-white people. Today is Christmas Eve, and I think it’s time to review the many “gifts” the majority of Americans received from your illegitimate president in 2025. While running for office in 2024, Trump made promises he never intended to keep, and he kept his “word.” Greedflation is growing and prices on all commodities, including toys for Christmas are far more expensive this year, and the culprit is clearly Trump’s ill-advised tariffs. Tariffs always fail, with a couple of minor exceptions. Doubt my allegation. Look at 1930 and what happened when tariffs added additional grief to the Great Depression. To understand why a second, illegitimate Trump presidency is 100 times more destructive than his first, we must return to 2016 and the truth about his rigged victory and his many failures over the next four years. Insiders with access to Trump and the reality of the 2016 election claim ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Donald Trump’s mental defect? “a psychological disorder in which a person has an inflated sense of self-worth, a need for admiration, and a disregard for others. Key characteristics of malignant narcissism include paranoia, feeling threatened or persecuted without proof, aggression, manipulation, and lack of remorse.” I know, but you be honest and tell me. Is Trump mentally challenged? Op-ed by James Turnage Follow me and be an informed American Source: https://www.verywellhealth.com/malignant-narcissism-5214553    

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is an ‘equal opportunity bigot:’ he hates everyone who is not pure white and wealthy. Knowing this, I was not surprised when he called all immigrants from Somalia “garbage.” [In a xenophobic rant during a cabinet meeting, Trump went off on Somalis and Ilhan Omar, the congressional representative who is from Somalia and is a US citizen. He said Somalia “stinks” and is “no good for a reason”. [“They contribute nothing. I don’t want them in our country, I’ll be honest with you,” he said. He called Omar “garbage” and said, “we’re going to go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country”.] I would like to define “garbage” when the word is used to describe another human being. I do not believe in using terms which demean other men and women. However, your illegitimate and immoral president proves his lack of average intelligence every day when he calls his enemies by names he believes define them as inferior. Let’s look at reality and the hi...

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 You’ve heard the story: Trump recently pardoned the former President of Honduras, Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was convicted of trafficking 400 million pounds of cocaine by a jury in a federal court. He was sentenced to 45 years in prison. The question is, why? Trump has no answer. However, one possibility has been recently revealed. During his trial, Hernandez hired a Republican lobby. The amount of money exchanged was undisclosed, however, it was referred to as “significant.” When corruption in politics is the subject, the rule of thumb is “follow the money.” Did Trump promise members of his party to take action on Hernandez’ situation? Was this payback for illegal actions taken on his behalf by one or more of his oligarchs? What I know for certain, is: “somethings rotten in Denmark, and it ain’t the cheese.” To this day, Trump’s only response was: The US president said Hernández had been "treated very harshly and unfairly" in a social media post anno...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump has been murdering passengers on boats off of the shore of Venezuela. He claims they were transporting drugs, but has no proof. He and our cowardly military leaders have been destroying these boats, killing everyone on board. Yesterday, he threatened to send American military personnel into Venezuela to “end the growing illicit drug problem in the country.” Another Republican “president” planning to wage an illegal and unwinnable war. No surprise here. A couple of days ago, he announced his intent to pardon former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez . Hernandez was convicted of drug trafficking and sentenced to 45 years in prison. What the f**k is this moron doing? He appears to be pardoning the worst of the worst, while ordering the murders of innocent people. Nothing would surprise me in 2025. Your illegitimate president is the most despicable person in the world. Someone must forcibly remove him from our White House. He is not welcome in the peopl...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is completely incompetent, and he doesn’t care. Simply look at the men and women he chose for his administration. ‘Unfit for office’ is a huge understatement. I have reported Trump’s life of failure for more than 10 years. Seldom have I ever understood what he was talking about as he ranted on and on at his numerous hate rallies. When I did find some comprehension, he was either whining about how badly he was mistreated, or attacking someone who disagreed with his fascist and Unconstitutional policies. Today his speech is incoherent and makes no sense. What’s left of his little mind is deteriorating rapidly. Is disgusts me when Trump is referred to as the President. He is not my president and never will be. Only a patriot who loves his or her country and all of its people is an American. Trump is nothing more than an opportunist. He uses people and his position for personal gain and his perverted pleasures. It is no secret that not a single member of Trump...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I’m sure that most of you wondered why Trump chose Pam Bondi for the position of Attorney General. I did not. They have a history, and Bondi knows where the bodies are buried. Is she qualified? Only in Trump’s administration where no one is qualified for the positions they were given. Prior to that dark day in June, 2015, when Trump declared his intention to win the Republican Party’s presidential nomination, a situation brought two criminals together for the first time. Bondi was the Attorney General for the strange state of Florida. On her desk was a file which might become a case involving fraud. Several students enrolled at Trump University claimed that there was no such school, and none of the promises offered when they enrolled and gave them their money were ever fulfilled. Trump became aware of the lawsuit. What we know is that he took $25,000 from the Trump Foundation and donated it to Bondi’s reelection campaign. Bondi filed the case in the ‘round file’...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I just labeled Trump with multiple adjectives which are demeaning and degrading. However, because they are all based on facts: facts he, himself, offered by his own actions and speech: they are not unfair or undeserved. I cannot compete with Trump when the situation involves name-calling, although most of his are simply silly and laughable. However, anyone who disagrees with the schoolyard bully is sure to receive a “nickname.” His “nicknames” are not clever, because he is not ‘clever.’ We all remember “Crooked Hillary,” “Sleepy Joe,” and “Little Marco.” The mental health community reveals the reasons an individual feels he or she has no other recourse than name-calling to defend his or herself. [Insecurity and envy: If we don't believe we measure up to our peers, we may redirect and express this discontentment by directing it toward others in the form of hatred or animosity. In psychology, this masking of our true feelings of insecurity is known as displace...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart We all know about Trump’s private life. He enjoyed his life in New York’s privileged society. In public, he appeared to be a successful billionaire, enjoying all of its pleasures, Most importantly, only a few investigative journalists knew the extent of his sexual deviance. Few knew about his huge number of adulterous actions, sexual assaults or his surely to be confirmed, pedophilia. However, when he declared his intention to become your president in 2015, he was exposed as the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement whose life was filled with crime and debauchery. A similar situation now exists for Elon Musk. He was the richest man in the world. His primary company, Tesla, was a huge success. His involvement in America’s space program made him billions of dollars each year. He hid from us his failures, and the fact that he is a devoted Nazi. When he became involved in Trump’s 2024 campaign, we learned about the real Elon Musk. It was immediately clear that he ha...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Now everyone knows: Trump is a pedophile. Most of us who spend much of our day researching information so that you may be informed have known about his sexual deviance for at least 10 years. In 2016, just two months before the election, in a tape released by Access Hollywood, Trump admitted that he was a sexual deviant. His own words revealed his opinions about all women. He openly admitted that he believes women have only one purpose. He committed adultery multiple times while married to three wives. Over a period of about 15 years, he spent most of his time with his “bestie,” Jeffrey Epstein. It is no longer a secret that he made multiple trips to Epstein’s private island on his private jet. There are videos of the two degenerates partying at Mar-a-Lago. Although the mainstream media hides the information to protect their Fuhrer, there are records of when one 12-year-old girl filed a rape complaint against your illegitimate president. It was dropped and settle...
