      If you can view it and not be appalled by his conduct, embarrassed by his neediness, concerned for his health, and worried about our nation under his care, I’m going to suggest that you’re enabling his neurosis and indulging his narcissism to the point of endangering all of us. If Trump Derangement Syndrome is a thing at all, it’s something Donald Trump is hopelessly afflicted with. If you’re still defending him, you’re not helping him—or America.[1]

    • 2020 April 26, Trump Derangement Syndrome Works Both Ways, TimeForTruth.org
      I’ve recently diagnosed, much to the chagrin of Trump supporters, that Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) works both ways. It’s not just a mental malady afflicting liberals and Democrats, but one that also afflicts, unbeknownst them, conservatives and Republicans. In both cases, it strips those suffering from it of their objectivity and obscures reality, which opens them up to unprecedented end-time deception.[5]
