Trump derangement syndrome definition

Sane people recognizing that Trump is deranged.

Could just add an apostrophe and call it Trump's derangement syndrome for accuracy and clarity.

2. I've noticed that as trump's actions become even more difficult to defend

this is their catch all response. Of course it has the advantage of being simple and stupid, so the base will eat it up. It's also incredibly lazy. Our side should be able to come up with a rude, simple, effective response. And by that, I don't mean a full paragraph with complete sentences and a logical premise.

4. Given his alleged clinical disorders and clear limitations...there's no way he can make good decisions

on our behalf.

He is incapable, small, limited, disordered. I don't know why this isn't the main topic of discussion outside of DU and in MSM. Forget analysis of policy and strategy...the underlying derangement has yet to surface as the huge issue that it is

...those that still unflaggingly think he is good for the US.
We're not those who are deranged. It's the cult that supports him that is deranged.

These people love him and worship him. There’s no logic to it. There’s no way to talk somebody out of whom they love. It has to be the Republicans to get us out of this. He’s fucking up now. People are getting tired of him, too much exposure.

Could just call them Trump fanatics.

Or hate addicts. Maybe "Trump addicts."

12. Yes, I like that, Trump addicts. That is good terminology. They really are hooked. It's their whole life.

11. Definition: A fascist attempt to uniquely denigrate and disqualify any criticism of Donald Trump.

That is what I say any time I am accused of it!
