Do Trump Supporters Need to Enter A Mental Hospital?

Here we explore the reality basis of Trump supporters. Is their world view based in any kind of reality?

After reading all this below, if you are still a Trump supporter you belong in a mental hospital! 
 
They say the definition of an insane person is one who does the same thing over and over and expects different results. Yet in spite of all evidence to the contrary, trump supporters keep repeating the same beliefs and mantras they always have.
 
In spite of the numerous high crimes and misdemeanors of trump, you continue to believe in him. These high crimes and misdemeanors include:
 
A. An 841 billion dollar trade deficit for Feb. 2019, the largest in our Nation’s history.
 
B. The failed summit talks with North Korea after which Kim is rebuilding his nuclear arsenal.
 
C. The failed GOP tax bill that saw many middle class and would-be middle class taxpayers end. up paying extremely high taxes, more than they ever have.
 
D. Failure to fulfill his campaign promise to build the wall.
 
E. The longest government shutdown in history.
 
F. The increasing stagnation of wages and the stock market.
 
G. The ten percent increase in prescription drugs in spite of reduced corporate income taxes.
 
H. The loss of 140,000 jobs since the implementation of the trump tax cuts.
 
I. The trumpion $554 billion suggested cuts to Medicare and 72.5 billion cuts to Social Security disability and supplemental security income.
 
J. The failure to address the opioid crisis. 
 
K. The increasing fear-mongering and immigration rhetoric including locking infants in cages and family separation policies due to trump’s policies. No wonder they call him “Baby Snatcher Trump.”
 
L. The endless ongoing investigations of trump and his businesses.
 
M. On 3/7/2019, the biggest drop in household net worth since the financial crisis in 2008.
 
N. The violation of the Emoluments clause of the U.S. Constitution.
 
O. The sabotage of Obamacare and the loss of protection of pre-existing conditions coverage encouraged by trump.
 
P. The increasing evidence of trump and Russian collusion in the 2016 election.
 
Q. The deliberate weakening of NATO.
 
R. The breaking of the treaty with Iran.
 
S. The gain of only 20,000 jobs for Feb. 2019 (the smallest gain since Nov, 2017.)The two tenths drop in unemployment was due to the return of the laid off government workers from trump’s shutdown.
 
I could go on and on. The list is endless. Each day we learn of a new crime that needs to be investigated. When will it stop?
 
So. If you are still a trump supporter in spite of all of the above, you do need to check yourself into a mental hospital.
 
In Connecticut we have fine facilities such as Connecticut Valley Hospital or even better for you, Whiting Forensic, the home for the criminally insane. Following the leadership of trump is more than a case of the “blind leading the blind;” it is a case of the insane leading the insane. You need help! Yes, you do need institutionalization!
 
Call 1-800-GET-HELP today; reality is a phone call away!

Thanks, Mel. I couldn't have said it better, and believe me, I've tried. Apparently, we also need about 60 million straight jackets to keep his knuckle-dragging followers in check. Corks in both ends might also help. Big ones. Huge.

Yes, it is insane how some people stick to their guns (quite literally) when all is lost and think by denying, it will go away.

I just received a dire warning that a backlash, a Blue Wave, is coming that will last a generation and more, perhaps, 50 years. Of course the warning included the wreck of the economy that "socialist" reforms will make by bankrupting the government and increasing taxes. I have seen fine analyses by Ed Phillips, to the contrary. For law-abiding, hard-working, Christian, Trump worshipers, the idea of "government handouts," is an abomination. Those of us of more even keel, look to relieving poverty as a source of freedom to create and move forward… Including paying more taxes rather than being totally dependent upon the government trickle-down or the street.

However, I must warn Democrats of the same fallacy. And Republicans should be aware that Richard Nixon proposed "workfare," by use of the tax system, back when the very rich were taxed reasonably. If the drastic reforms Democrats are proposing don't work, I would advise you to quickly correct them so that we all can live and prosper with life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
