Trump has many supporters. They may not all possess the greatest sense of morality, or believe in the principles of our founding father’s America, but they are avid supporters. If you align with any of the following, you too are a “Trumpster.”
Let’s start with two individuals you know quite well; Bill and Hillary Clinton. In 2005 they attended Trump’s third nuptial event. Trump endorsed $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation.
How about David Duke? You might remember him as a former Grand Wizard of the KKK, and a one-time congressional candidate. He recently stated that “voting against Donald Trump at this point is really treason to your heritage.”
Louis Farrakhan seems like an unlikely supporter. The 82-year-old leader of the Nation of Islam said: “Not that I’m for Mr. Trump, but I like what I’m looking at,” said Farrakhan, adding that Trump was “the only member who has stood in front of the Jewish community and said I don’t want your money.” I’m relatively certain that he is unaware of Trump’s opinion of all Muslims.
Then there’s the former half-governor of Alaska; you know, the one who’s missing quite a few brain cells. She strongly supports Trump and said the following when endorsing him: Sarah Palin believes he is the best suited to “to keep the main thing the main thing and he [Trump] knows the main thing.” She also says that Trump would be able to “kick ISIS’ ass.”
In January, Reverend Carl Gallups announce that he is supporting Trump. You may remember him as the man who claims that the Sandy Hook shootings were all a hoax, and no one was actually killed. He says that some of those filmed at the school were ‘Hollywood actors.’
Donald Trump identifies with Orly Taitz. She is a lawyer, and, like Trump, a ‘birther.’ She claims that President Obama was born in Kenya and has a fake Hawaiian birth certificate. She says “when Donald Trump is elected as a US president, his attorney general will investigate this issue… I believe that we will have the answers because all of the evidence clearly shows that he is using fabricated IDs.”
Nigel Farage is the leader of the United Kingdom’s right wing Independence Party. He believes that Trump would be a great president. He compares hid to Ronald Reagan; (he must mean in his second term). “They all said Ronnie Reagan was a cretin, but he was a great president, and maybe they are underestimating Trump.”
“Whatever Trump’s faults, he would be more pro-British than Obama, who was the most anti-British president America ever had,” he added.
There are many more, but I’ll end this with one of the strangest men in the world; Dennis Rodman. Rodman appeared on “Celebrity Apprentice,” and says; Trump “has been a great friend for many years. We don’t need another politician, we need a businessman like Mr. Trump! Trump 2016.” You might remember another of close friends; Kim Jong Un.
If you agree with any of the above, you are a ‘Trumpster.’ If you are a ‘Trumpster;’ may God have mercy on you and yours.
