I downloaded forge and every time I run it I get a .txt file that says: 

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

I've tried just about every trick I can find online and nothing seems to work.  I am at lost what I need to do.  If anyone can help that will be greatly appreciated.  

because you are using an old non-working installer
Your (old) version is no longer supported on this forum.
Please update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.

Some Old installers currently do not work, Use latest for your version
