    “Trump gets into I think a psychological illness they have about Trump,” he said. “Trump derangement syndrome is real — so obsessive.”

    The only people who suffer from TDS worse than the far left liberals who froth at the mouth at the mere mention of his name …are his supporters.

      the far left liberals who froth at the mouth at the mere mention of his name

      You mean the people who fear living in a theocratic dictatorship roughly twelve months from now? Yes, god forbid we’re a little upset at the idea.

        You can’t even be on the “far left” and be a liberal simultaneously, “far left liberal” is an oxymoron. Private property is a core aspect of liberalism which is contrary to any ideology that could be considered “far” left. Liberalism is also market economies, with the left being at the very least mixed but “far” left would be centrally planned economy.

        If you hate the guy so much that any time his name is mentioned, even if it is something he did right, you have a problem. I don’t like him either, and I fear what he might mean for this country if elected again. . .but if his name makes you lose your shit you have a mental problem.

          This sentence is missing a clause. If you hate the guy… that you _______. What are people supposed to be doing because of this hate???

      There is no such thing. It’s just people aware of his crimes and seeking consequences for same, and loyalists who insist that reaching a conclusion is bias and bias is the worstest thing ever.

      And enlightened centrist cranks performatively rolling their eyes about ‘frothing far left liberals.’ Because who cares what words mean?

        I grew up in a liberal area. I now live in a very liberal area. I went to a very liberal university. And I’m very liberal myself. I’m surrounded by liberals.

        Also have my family is very conservative and I work in a very conservative field. Likewise, I spend a lot of time with conservatives.

        And that being said, I’ve seen plenty of irrational hatred directed towards Trump for the most stupid shit. So I strongly disagree that it’s just “being aware of his crimes” and wanting him punished for them. There is no way this guy should be anywhere near the presidency again, and he should be spending the rest of his life behind bars. But that doesn’t make every criticism of him rational. If this makes me “an enlightened centrist” I’ll happily wear the label. But I thought it just made me rational and objective. I guess you hold the position that if one dislikes Trump, anything bad said about him is rational. Sorry, but I won’t ever be that way.
