President Trump has now left office. Unfortunately, he exits on a very sour note – kicking and screaming as he relinquishes the reins of power, even alienating some former allies in the process. I know he believes that he was cheated out of office, but you must rely on the system to give you justice […]
There is fraud in every election. The only question is the matter of degree and the extent to which it affected the final outcome in the recent Presidential contest. There were allegations of serious voter fraud in Georgia and Pennsylvania, somewhat less serious charges in Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada and Arizona. If it happened as many […]
Many of Trump’s former allies are turning on him. A few cabinet members and other high officials have resigned. Some accuse him of inciting the recent riots in Washington by his refusal to accept the election results. Trump responds with vicious assaults against these one time friends and supporters of his administration. I detest fair […]
Too bad the election season is ending in riots. There is no excuse for violence. We are a nation of laws. The law gets it wrong on occasion, but we must accept its decisions. Trump alienated many of his supporters by his refusal to accept a result that appeared inevitable. Now, after the outbreak of […]
A month has elapsed since the election, and there remains a boiling undercurrent of uncertainty about the outcome. Our citizens are divided into the following camps. Those who believe that Joseph Biden won the election legitimately, and election fraud was minimal. Biden is their President. Those who believe that there may have been considerable fraud, […]
Results from the recent Presidential election are still being fought out in state legislatures and in the courts. The role of the legislatures is very important because, as the United States Constitution directs, “each state shall appoint, in such manner as the legislature thereof may direct” the electors that determine who will be President. As […]

As a pre-teen, I became politically aware during the late 1930s, and I well remember the Italian dictator’s frequent appearance in newsreels. Mussolini would strut up to the podium, tilt his head back and thrust […]
I am experiencing something akin to shell shock, or what is now referred to as post-traumatic stress disorder. The election results on November 3rd were devastating to my psyche, and it will take some time for me to recover. I kept my hopes up until the very end. I could not believe that the American […]
Behind the scenes of America’s political turmoil in 2020 is a struggle between globalism and nationalism. Many of our great corporations have become international in scope. This is true of Asian and European as well as American corporations. Companies like Microsoft, Google, Ford, General Motors, Honda, and Toyota have interests, employees, and production facilities in […]
This is a continuation of the themes expressed in “The Great Enigma”, my most recent post. Who is Donald J. Trump? I do not look at our President through worshipful eyes. I have experienced 91 winters on this old earth, and I am not easily deceived by appearances. I have seen a few great men, […]
