"Trump Derangement Syndrome" is gaslighting, and they know we know it's gaslighting

[In It to Win It]

That’s the annoying part to me, is that they know we know that they’re obviously gaslighting us with the “TDS” bullshit.

We watched these same people bitch and complain about Obama, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton non-fucking-stop since Obama won in 2008. For what is now 17 straight years, they still whine and nag about Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. STILL IN 2025 and eventually 2026, they have to decorate the White House with insults of Obama, Biden and Clinton.

…and we’re the deranged ones?

4. It's their silly attempt to throw back

what was a fairly effective insult from our side.

We used the term “Obama Derangement Syndrome” (or ODS) to mock conservatives when right-wing media worked themselves up into outrage over things like Obama putting mustard on a burger or wearing a tan suit (yes, there is an entire Wikipedia page dedicated to that one).

Now Trump supporters are trying to flip this back on us as if the rampant corruption, lawbreaking, destruction of alliances, cozying up to brutal dictators, and other widely authoritarian actions from their clearly deteriorating president — oh, not to mention that he was literally best friends with the world’s most famous pedophile sex trafficker — are on the same level as wearing a tan suit.

Not sure it’s working, because it seems pretty obvious that if anyone has Trump Derangement Syndrome, it’s the people still supporting this shambles of an administration.

10. No, it goes back further. It was coined by Krauthammer during early DU years.

ODS was just a flip of Krauthammer's coinage.

He always loved sprinkling in a few words from his psychiatry training to imply Democrats were deranged. But then again, I love him being really fucking dead.

12. Omg you're right

I forgot about that. Indeed, it was Bush Derangement Syndrome first. Apparently we were supposed to be deranged because we objected to starting a major war in the Middle East based on lies about WMDs.

Then after Bush, the RW really DID get deranged over tan suits and mustard.

15. Oh, damn. Not THAT guy. I thing he definitely

was part Klingon.

17. They are really so unoriginal

Mostly they're the "I'm rubber, you're glue" gang - "I know you are but what am I?" They haven't grown past the 2nd grade.

Sadly it works a lot of the time as they tend to be louder and more obnoxious.

6. It is the first time in American history

That I am aware of, that we have an entire administration of trolls…..

Probably due to bridge infrastructure issues, the trolls were evicted and had to find a new home. Unfortunately it became our government…..

[Trueblue Texan]

7. Yep, TDS is definitely their tell. nt

8. In 1938

Neville Chamberlain accused Churchill of Hitler derangement syndrome.

11. Trump is by far the most deranged, crass, partisan, cruel & treasonous POTUS ever & they act like

we're crazy for being upset. They can all go to hell!!!

[OneGrassRoot]

14. This is my response going forward to gaslighting, especially MAGA gaslighting:

"You're full of shit, you know it, and what you seem to forget is that we know it too. Every time you MAGAspeak all we hear is womp-womp stupid bullshit, just like your cult leader. You're all full of shit and useless."

[Ol Janx Spirit]

16. What we have is Trump Derangement Awareness--something MAGA does not possess.

A syndrome is defined as a group of traits or conditions that tend to occur together and characterize a recognizable disease.

A disease is defined as any harmful condition affecting an organism's structure or function, not caused by immediate injury, often with specific signs (like a fever) and symptoms (like pain.)

So, for example, being upset about half of our White House being bulldozed without discussion and for no good reason is an example of the awareness that Turnip is so deranged that he would do such a thing and not being happy about it--a natural reaction.

The fact that half of our White House is now missing is a clear sign and symptom of the fact that Turnip is deranged and now our White House has been directly affected.

Awareness vs. syndrome.

MAGA is Turnip-oblivious, and it is going to cost us all dearly.



[Expletive] them and their [expletive] stupid [expletive, expletive, expletive, expletive] opinions on anything.

[Rebl2]

18. Trumps

the one with a derangement syndrome. He’s projecting again.

[Tommy Carcetti]

19. Just like "Russiagate" was gaslighting.

Given the very clear connections and relationship between Russia and the 2016 Trump campaign that was plainly obvious on its face.
