 Who the fuck CARES what China does or doesn't do in other parts of the 
 world, 
 as long as they're not spreading their liberal/Democrat-type communism. 
  
 You think China gives a shit about your trans and Drag-Queen loving?

 "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition 
  
 All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS. 
  
 "Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person 
 has 
 been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the 
 point at which they will abandon all logic and reason." 
  
 Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the 
 Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or 
 stages: 
  
 "In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. 
 The 
 president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters 
 were 
 all it took to change the world." 
  
 "The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's 
 vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of 
 hyperbole." 
  
 "As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy 
 from 
 reality." 
  
 The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee- 
 jerk 
 opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump 
 announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would 
 suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. 
 There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would 
 be 
 received positively by TDSers. 
  
 The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 
 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for 
 late- 
 night comics and nothing more. 
  
 Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first 
 coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003. 
 The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia 
 in 
 otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - 
 the very existence of George W. Bush."
