I don't regularly like to publish articles here on my PEAKD channel about politics. However, there is this one pressing topic that I simply cannot remain quiet about.
I'm not ashamed to reveal that I have voted for President Donald J. Trump in the last three presidential elections here in the United States. I consider him to be a much better leader than Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris. At the same time, because I am a moderate Independent, I must admit that I don't agree with everything that he does.
A YouTuber who goes by the user name of Styxhexenhammer666 is articulate in expressing how it is to be a Trump supporter and a moderate Independent at the same time. Below is a video of his in which he does exactly that.
Although YouTuber Styxhexenhammer666 Continues To Be A Trump Supporter, He Boldly Admits That There's Room For Improvement In The White House
I give kudos to President Trump for having taken a strong stand against the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") in response to all of its corruption, and that should remain a credit to his name. After all, the FBI is the most corrupt government agency in the entire United States.
Nonetheless, YouTuber Styxhexenhammer666 is correct in his assertion that even Trump supporters need to let their gripes about President Trump be known to President Trump. The elephant in the room here is what President Trump is doing about the homelessness crisis in our nation.
1. Inhumanity Against Homelessness
Jesse Watters of Fox News is an excellent example of the saying that you can love the art and hate the artist at the same time. Even though Mr. Watters is a highly professional journalist, he could never be mistaken for a philanthropist. He constantly belittles and badmouths homeless people as those who have failed in life regardless of each of their individual circumstances.
Mr. Watters is likely happy that the authorities across the United States will soon have the power to treat the homeless like criminals simply for existing, because something Earth-shattering has recently come out of the White House. It's something that will turn an eviction into the kiss of death.
What I am really having a difficult time wrapping my brain around is the fact that President Donald J. Trump has signed an executive order that would allow authorities to institutionalize homeless people here in the United States under the premise that they are mentally ill. The problem is that most homeless people are not really mentally ill but rather have simply experienced a bad run of luck. Below is a video that explains it all.
The Institutionalization Of Homeless People Could Lead To Police Oppression
As you can see from the video above, this same executive order that President Trump signed into law is not a form of universal healthcare or socialized medicine. Of course, that's the least of our troubles in view of it.
What is greatly concerning is that this issue is highly non-partisan and will also cause concern for moderate Independents and conservative Republicans. Below is a video from Steven Robert Whitsett in which he describes this matter as being something that involves both sides of the aisle as well as the center of it.
Steven Robert Whitsett Claims That President Donald J. Trumps' Recent Executive Order Is A Non-Partisan Issue
Instead of going into all the particulars of how people can end up homeless due to no fault of their own, I'm going to use the example of a large, homeless family that was recently evicted from their residence in New York City. What I'm describing is a Christian conservative family in which the parents likely voted for President Trump in the last three presidential elections. A video of them is below.
President Donald J. Trump's Anti-Homeless Executive Order Could Cause This Large Family To Be Wrongfully Institutionalized
This family tried every way to make it in the Big Apple, and the kids in it were attending Julliard School in hopes of hitting the big time in the classical music entertainment industry. The expenses of living in New York got to be too much for them. Ultimately their landlord evicted them. Now they are travelling back to California where they're from to get a fresh, new start.
By the time that I publish this article here, this family will have likely returned to San Diego, California from where they are originally. I'm confident that they will have relatives to help them, but they'll still need to be on their guard.
Now, if you watch the above video from beginning to end, you'll notice that, fortunately, this family has enough money to buy food for themselves while they're in transit. However, there still remains a certain amount of uncertainty over what they're going to do once they get to where they're going, which is San Diego. Because they have no current address, they remain vulnerable to whatever conundrums this new law that President Trump enacted throws in their pathway.
I would hope that because most police officers have large families, they would show this family an ample amount of empathy and not detain them to haul them into a maddening system of civil commitment that could cause serious damage to all of them. It would be particularly traumatizing for the small children, if that same tragedy were to happen.
I, therefore, post this article as my effort to reach out to President Trump and ask that he rescinds that same above-described executive order so that we don't have anyone being trapped in a mental institution when they suffer from no psychological problems in the first place. This same family and many other homeless families and individuals should be given the full opportunity to get themselves back on their feet again.
Putting the lives of any type of people in mass numbers in the hands of psychiatrists is nothing more than a recipe for disaster. Most psychiatrists are not the most empathetic people, and they seldom ever care about the truth about anyone's psyche. They're in the business to make money. Mad in America will be appalled about this same executive order that President Trump signed.
After President Trump had to fight off rumors started by a YouTuber named James Hunter that his then-10-year-old son, Barron, had autism back in 2016, it would seem that he would understand how stigmatizing a false psychiatric diagnosis can be. In his son's case, his son wasn't even seeing a psychiatrist, because his son wasn't autistic. Mr. Hunter was merely stirring up trouble for the Trump family.
In any event, it would be wrong to put homeless people at the tender mercies of overly ambitious mental-health professionals. Enough people fall victim to psychiatric abuse as it is.
2. Final Thoughts
Write a letter to President Donald J. Trump if you have to in order to make him aware that this executive order against homeless people he signed recently doesn't sit very well with you. As a leader, he needs to be treating the root causes of homelessness rather than the symptoms of it. The fact alone that there is over a half-million homeless people in our nation shows that something is seriously wrong with our political and societal system.
Many homeless people on the streets of the United States are war veterans; and whenever Jesse Watters goes shooting his mouth off about how he believes that homeless people only have themselves to blame for their predicaments, he only shows his lack of gratitude toward these same homeless war veterans who fought hard for his freedoms as well as those of other Americans. Mr. Watters may be a good news man, but he's not a good person.
The way society should handle homeless people here in the United States is best described in Jenny Gage's video below. Homeless people need Good Samaritans rather than shrinks to help them get their lives back on track.

If President Trump receives enough letters from voters to get rid of this same above-described executive order, I'm confident that he will listen to the pleas of many and take action to make everything right. He won't know how everyone feels about this topic until and unless we reach out to him somehow.
