Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary Toward Uncle Donald

Last updated on: July 8, 2020 at 7:52 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Mary Trump’s book, Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man, which is about Donald Trump and the Trump family, is quite revealing and different from any anti-Donald Trump book written so far. She was there, a member of the family, who witnessed Uncle Donald and knows a lot more about him than those other trash-talking authors. In fact, she reveals in this book that she was the source who informed The New York... Read more

Mary Trump’s Tell-All Book

Last updated on: July 7, 2020 at 10:57 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Mary Trump, niece of President Donald Trump, has written a book entitled Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man. Published by Simon of Schuster (they published John Bolton’s book recently), the book is being released next Tuesday, two weeks ahead of schedule. It’s because pre-sales rocketed it to the #1 bestseller position on amazon.com. That is a pretty shocking subtitle. Mary Trump seems to mean that with every spiritual fiber of her soul.... Read more

The South’s Confederacy Has a New President–Donald Trump

Last updated on: July 6, 2020 at 9:53 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Republican President Donald Trump is falling way behind in the polls, regarding the upcoming presidential election, against the Democrats’ soon-to-be nominee former Vice President Joe President. So, Trump looks like he’s grasping for straws by diverting attention away from his mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic by claiming the new Black Lives Matter movement against racism and police brutality is anti-American as it also demands that names of Confederate generals who fought against the Union in the Civil War have statues... Read more

DeChambeau Wins Rocket Mortgage Classic

Last updated on: July 5, 2020 at 5:01 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Bryson DeChambeau–the main talk of the PGA Tour right now with his bulking up in the gym to become the longest driver on Tour–won the Rocket Mortgage Classic by three strokes over Matt Wolff with a seven under par 65 today. Bryson has been on the PGA Tour five years now, and he has won a tournament each of those five years for a total of six wins. Besides being known as the Mad Scientist because of his analytical intellect... Read more

Wolff Leads Rocket Mortgage Classic By Three

Last updated on: July 4, 2020 at 11:46 pm   By Kermit Zarley

The 21-year old Matthew Wolff has the golf world talking about his unorthodox swing just as much as its talking about the bulked-up mad scientist Bryson DeChambeau as Wolff takes a three shot lead over DeChambeau into the last round tomorrow in the Rocket Mortgage Classic which is being contested over one of the oldest golf courses in the U.S., The Detroit Golf Club. The Chicago Golf Club (which I have played) is the oldest golf course by seven years... Read more

Where Will Trump’s Self-Inflicted Wounds Take Him?

Last updated on: July 4, 2020 at 10:46 pm   By Kermit Zarley

President Donald Trump is a sinking ship, and he’s taking the Republican Party with him. It may take that party a long time to recover from its foolishness of selling out to Trumpism. It’s happening because of Trump’s self-inflicted wounds that are growing more malignant every day. The result is that Joe Biden, Trump’s opponent to stop his bid for reelection for the presidency come November, is on average ten percentage points ahead of Trump in the polls, and that... Read more

Is that Benedict Donald in the White House?

Last updated on: July 4, 2020 at 10:47 am   By Kermit Zarley

Yesterday, a political group of military veterans called VoteVets aired a TV ad calling President Donald Trump “Benedict Donald–America’s number one traitor.” It says in a voiceover, “No one has betrayed those in uniform like Donald Trump.” I do think he’s a draft dodger, making him such a hypocrite to be commander-in-chief. But what about this–the new Benedict Arnold? I’m a vet, and this makes me cringe. Benedict Arnold was the greatest traitor of the U.S. ever, which occurred in... Read more

Is There a Mass Murderer in the White House?

Last updated on: July 3, 2020 at 12:13 am   By Kermit Zarley

Chris Cuomo is the younger brother of New York’s Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo. Their father was that state’s governor for three terms. Chris is a journalist who has his popular Cuomo Prime Time news program on CNN every weeknight. U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted Wednesday, belittling Chris Cuomo’s recent TV ratings and calling him “Fredo.” I understand it refers to a character in the Godfather movie. That shows where I think Trump’s interests lie–watching the Godfather movie. I think he... Read more

Has Trump “Grown in his Faith”?

Last updated on: July 1, 2020 at 12:18 pm   By Kermit Zarley

In early June, Sean Spicer, former White House press secretary for President Donald Trump, asked him, “have you grown in your faith?” The president answered, “So I think maybe I have, from the standpoint that I see so much that I can do. I’ve done so much for religion.” Uh, Mr. President, I don’t think that’s what Mr. Spicer meant. He was talking about you personally. In August, 2015, when Donald Trump first started his political campaign to run for... Read more

Trump Seems to Care More about the Dead than the Living

Last updated on: June 30, 2020 at 10:41 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Where is U.S. President Donald Trump in treating this horrible health crisis called COVID-19 that our nation and the world is suffering for nearly six months now? First he said it was nothing, that it would go away soon, like “a miracle.” Then, when he realized that wasn’t true, he said, “nobody knew this was coming” or something like it. That was just his narcissism speaking–if he doesn’t know something, then nobody knows it. Yet we had had many epidemiologists,... Read more
