Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) is a term for criticism or negative reactions to United States President Donald Trump that are perceived to be irrational, and have little regard towards Trump's actual policy positions, or actions undertaken by his administration. The term has mainly been used by Trump supporters to discredit criticism of his actions, as a way of reframing the discussion by suggesting that his opponents are incapable of accurately perceiving the world. Journalists have used the term to call for restraint when judging Trump's statements and actions.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King

But in cases where a Trump critic is too emotional to make any sense then that would be where I would use the term.
IMO, you have TDS if every time you think about Trump your vision gets blurry and you lose concentration.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.

Second, it is a small subset of the people protesting who are engaging in violence. But they seem to get all of the focus, and they are taking the focus off the true objectives of the peaceful protesters.

In my experience, Trump Derangement Syndrome can be found in both Roadkill-Hair's Fans and Foes... Some folks are as deranged in their support of Trump as others are in their opposition of the Cheeto-Dome. ETA: Basically, either he can do no wrong or do no right.Have You Touched Grass Today? If Not, Please Do.
