Anyone with a modicum of sense doesn't need this article to explain this, but those who do need it explained won't care about logic or the facts anyway.

Exactly, who is the target audience for this article? Those that need to read it would rather live in hateful ignorance

It is important that Americans start to understand just how much of a wedge Trump is driving between the US and Europe. There’s already reports of French judges being unable to use Visa and Mastercards issues by French banks, have accounts with any US tech company, amazon.fr or even book a hotel in france because everything is controlled by US companies. Their crime: Working for the ICC and investigating Netanjahu.

Most Trump supporters don't understand - nor much care about - domestic issues, let alone foreign ones. All they care about is themselves, and they're too selfish & short-sighted to understand how caring about others can benefit them as well. Some are now learning this lesson the hard way, but I expect things will have to get significantly worse in the US for most of them to ever even consider that they've been wrong. In the meantime, they'll gladly continue to make everyone else in the country suffer for their sins.
