The smug childishness of a grade school bully who got you in trouble after you lost your shit and finally punched back. These assclowns are infuriating.

I love how far I had to read before it was clear that it's not what Trump has; it's what people who disagree with him apparently have.
Diseases are often named after their victims...
Also, and this is buried in everything he is doing, but how arrogant do you have to be to assume that every person disagrees with him just because he's Donald Trump, and not because there are valid concerns?
Russian stooge uses Russian method of oppression by abusing the mental health care system.
Unless real doctors accept this as a real illness, it's just politicians jerking off.
This is potentially a legal rather than a medical diagnosis, and if the legal system is sufficiently corrupted, it doesn't matter what doctors think.
Also, in previous instances (Bush-era torture, for example), the medical and psychological professions just went along. Nover underestimate the venality and spinelessness of professional organizations.
Conservatives are wild. I don’t know if they intentionally do it but their behavior is absurd. Obsessed with Obama’s birth certificate, LeTs Go BrAnDoN, and even super whacky shit like QAnon and trying to prove Michelle Obama is a man. They hate “mainstream media” yet Fox News is one of the biggest networks. They’re all about merit yet discount anything AOC says, who’s smart and studied, because she bartended. And now they want to turn the tables, claim they are and have always been normal, and it’s people who disapprove of Trump who are deranged. It makes no sense.
All of that? That's the point. That's exactly how they want us to feel: confused, hurt, isolated. They will gladly say something incredibly hypocritical and then just smile a shit-eating grin when you call them out, because we both know there's nothing that can be done short of violence and that's when they've "won."
But in all honesty, violence actually is an answer, and a proper one to bullshit like this. I don't give a fuck if you could call it assault if someone is literally taunting and threatening me when I haul off and beat their ass.
Do it. Make them scared of violent revolution and reprisals.
As a therapist, I won’t recognize it. Fuck that.
My guess is he's trying to rename Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome because he has it.
Totally not a cult.
Everyone who isn't with us is against us, but yeah not a cult
These are the same morons that have Biden Derangement Syndrome.
So trumps followers have Trump derangement syndrome. Makes sense.
5+ years back Trumpettes threw around the label TDS at Trump detractors, saying they couldn't see reality due to their rage...
Whatever you call it, however you see it, there is significant mass psychosis associated with our nutcase-in-chief.
Fear of chaos and loss of civil rights? That sounds entirely rational based on what the Trump administration is up to.
When I first heard of TDS I thought it was about his deranged stans and I thought that made sense.
Then I was told it was about all the people who lost their minds because of his election and defined themselves purely oppositionally to him, and I thought that made sense.
Then I observed that it's really just used as a slur against anyone who doesn't like him or his policies, and that makes sense too because that's the ultimate death of every social critique that ends up promulgated by conservatives.
It's always projection with those assholes.
As a german: this is 1:1 the 3rd Reich playbook.
Stop it as long as you can!
We have no ability to effect any meaningful change at this point outside of high velocity lead poisoning.
I kinda want to leave for good.
Well, better organize then.
You have. Go in the street in masses make sure that Republicans fear you.
Our german constitution allows for violence from civilians to protect the democratic order if any other means failed.
We have this for good reasons. To make sure we don't ever end up with a dictatorship again.
It will pe painful, it will be ugly, but if you wait to long this is the only way
Good luck with AfD. Don't let your problem grow to be as large as ours has gotten.
In America, our system works like this:
The police will shoot you, maybe burn your house or neighborhood down, steal everything you own, Lock you up without charges, and then if you can ever afford a lawyer to sue them you might get out of jail only to find the burned-out hole in the ground you used to live in was sold to a property developer and none of the money found its way to you.
You also owe tens of thousands of dollars in back taxes on the burned down house for the time you were in jail, but all of the money for selling the house was given to some scam artist who knew you wouldn't be able to stop them.
You can't afford to go to the doctor, but a third of your income is spent on health insurance. It takes 2 hours of work to afford a dozen eggs. You no longer have a car because they towed it from your driveway while you were locked up and you can't even afford to get it out of impound despite the fact that every day the cost of storing the vehicle goes up by more than you earn.
This country is a fucking nightmare for so many people.
It's too late. It's now on the rest of the world to prepare for the American Nazi regime

Yes, hating Trump is deranged, but this was not: 
Anyone ever see one of these with Trump?
Btw, I got this simply from searching “Biden truck decal”. I got no negative top results searching Trump instead of Biden. In fact, this is the best one I got from adding anti- in front of Trump in the search (with relevant double-standard caption included): 
So tell me again, who is deranged?

He is not deranged he is just a piece of shit Nazi like his father.
...I'm confused. He named a new mental illness after himself now?
It’s another “every accusation is a confession” - he’s accusing people who hate him of having this, but really it’s the ones who are obsessed with loving him that are deranged.
Not him, but a bunch of other people on his political party.
It does feel a little like an attempt to legitimise it, so that criticisms are flipped off as mental illness, and/or an opportunity for institutionalising/excluding political opponents for much the same reason.
This is their attempt to get around that pesky 1st amendment. Make criticism of the king a "mental disorder", and then you can lock them up involuntarily "for their own protection".

Last month, Elon Musk revived the term and told Fox News host Sean Hannity he used to be “adored by the left” until they were infected with TDS.
From what I remember, it had nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with you calling the experts who successfully rescued a bunch of children trapped in a cave, “pedo guy” along with all your other aggressive tactics to silence critics. Followed by the Twitter purchase.

Yes, Trump's derangement can be classified as a completely new form of mental illness

Shouldn't it be "Trump's Derangement Syndrome"?
If hating the guy who's threatening to take over my country is an illness, then bring it on, I've got it bad.
The best thing about someone using the term Trump derangement syndrome unironically is that I know I can just ignore them and nothing of value will be lost.
