“There are years that ask questions and years that answer.”
Since 2016 and the strange rise of Donald Trump to the Presidency, I’ve pondered when his brand name of glorified, reality show fakeness impacting our country will end. To answer this question fully, however, it’s important that we now know that he gathered many co-conspirators to his devious plot to rule as an all powerful king. For it appears that voters have been “played such as a fool” too long by Mr. Trump and his sycophant puppets.
Consider as a shocking sample, the recent testimony under oath of former National Enquirer Publisher David Pecker at the ongoing Stormy Daniels Hush Money Trial targeting Mr. Trump for felonies in the state of New York. We now know from Mr. Pecker’s testimony under oath that he regularly approved printing sensationalist articles of questionable fact accuracy to favor his friend Donald’s election chances in 2016 while further agreeing to omit use of scandalous stories in his magazine that made Mr. Trump look bad then. Mr. Pecker’s court statements during prosecution questioning also confirmed evidence that he produced “shock and awe” stories to negatively portray Donald’s political opponents running against him then.
So take a look for yourself in the photos below how the National Enquirer used language to bias its readers to support or oppose candidates running for President during the 2016 election voting cycle.
Thus, the real news about Election year 2024 should be how strongly we can change perceptions of the current voting populace to rise up and make a more informed choice for President in November. For those values we should portray with respect to truthful engagement about critical issues we face in lieu of slander and gossip will largely determine in my view whether America’s longstanding experiment with Representative Democracy can survive. Otherwise, our country will continue to be threatened by extremist madness fueled by senseless cult and conspiracy behavior.
Have a listen to this classic “The Who” tune from my generation. For it definitely “fires me up” to see the need to make a big societal shift now as I once aspired to do in my early adult years. Click on the link below.

Millions of people will be on edge on the night of 5 November. It’s the rematch that nobody wanted in a bitterly polarised nation. Facing 88 criminal charges, Trump will be spending the campaign going from rallies to courtrooms while Biden is getting little credit for economic recovery and is under increasing scrutiny over his age and his stance on the war in Gaza. As the world watches on, how will America decide?
