Exploring the mindset of a typical, hardcore Trump supporter: Part two

Trump supporters: Well, I guess something had to be done to put a stop to this endless, illegal immigration by people who had no right to cross our border. Nothing else was working so something had to be done to teach these illegals a lesson they wouldn't forget.

*Making fun of climate activist Greta Thunberg: Now he attacks a young person trying to do the right thing for this planet. Greta Thunberg, a 16-year old Swedish environmental activist on climate change has gained international recognition for her work.

President Donald Trump, in his usual insulting-type twitter, mocked this dedicated, hard-working teen soon after she was named Time magazine's Person of the Year, calling her great achievement "ridiculous" and suggesting she take anger management classes. He sounds like a kid who just got rejected by a little league baseball team and blames one of his fellow players for some odd reason.

Trump supporters; He's got every right to get mad as hell, and for Time Magazine to choose some foreign teen over this president who is doing great things for America, making it great again. And, yes, it is more than ridiculous. Another sham, one more hoax.

*Withdrawing from the Paris Climate Accord: The world was shocked when Trump announced that he would have the US withdraw from this crucially important accord relative to combating climate change/warming. That means that the US became the only country in the world that will not belong to it as well as cooperate with other countries.

Trump supporters: The US is already doing a lot about climate change on its own. It's time for Russia, China, European countries and others to do something about it. We can operate on our own and we don't need other countries to dictate what we must do.

*Withdrawing from the 2015 Iranian Nuclear Agreement: This agreement between Iran, the US, and other major countries was working well, and Iran had dismantled much of its nuclear program. After Trump withdrew the US from the agreement in May 2018, because he said it wasn't working and Iran was cheating, that country has resumed some of its nuclear activities and the program is in a tenuous state.

Trump supporters: Trump is entirely correct, that agreement was a sham, the Iranians cannot be trusted and they represent a danger to the world. We must do everything possible to make certain that they cannot threaten any other country and there are those in America who believe we should get ready to attack it. Trump did the exact right thing.

*Ukraine telephone conversation: House committees have produced concrete evidence of a telephone call that Trump made to President Zelensky of Ukraine in which he made it clear that he wanted Zelensky to open an investigation of Joe Biden and his son Hunter in exchange for military aid of $391 million.

Additionally, during the 2016 election campaign, he said this: "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 33,000 Hillary Clinton emails that are missing," Lastly, in a news conference he also asked China to investigate the Bidens. Asking other nations to get involved in our elections is, without a doubt, impeachable.

Trump Supporters: What a bunch of crap, no more than a sham, a hoax, nothing but lies. The Democrats hate Trump with a vengeance and they will do anything to get rid of him, but it will not work.

Well, in closing, all I can say is that there is some good news in this situation: at least, two-thirds of the American people have their heads on straight.
