Trump Derangement Syndrome -- A Forensic Analysis

Trump Derangement Syndrome — Thru the Looking Glass

Now that Donald Trump has swept thru Super Tuesday and is on his way to the Republican Presidential nomination, you can be certain that the spontaneous flowering of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) will begin to burst forth from the mouths of media pundits, much like the flak barrage that blanketed the skies of England during the Nazi bombardment of London.

These people simply cannot help themselves.  They are in the grip of a madness that knows no rational thought, boundaries or parameters.  It is not simply illogical, it is akin to the knee-jerk reflex reaction you get in the doctors office when he/she taps your knee bone and your leg swings out in unconscious obedience to the nerve impulse.

Wounded Woke
Wounded Woke Warriors like Stephen Colbert, Jake Tapper, Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski , Rachel Maddow, Caitlin Collins, Keith Olbermann, and pseudo historians like Michael Beschloss and the vipers of The View have already begun their melt down process.  Undoubtedly Robert DiNero will soon be seen foaming at the mouth somewhere on Sunset Boulevard, along with most of Hollywood, as they instinctively react to Trump dragging America back from the edge of the abyss of Wokeness insanity.

The casual observer, if there are any left on America, must be perplexed as to just what causes seemingly rational people to go berzerk, almost as if some dark voodoo had captured their souls and turned seemingly rational people into candidates ready to be admitted to the nearest psych ward.

It’s Basic Psychology
The answer to the question is actually one of the most basic tenets of Psychology 101 — it is the process of recognition, projection and rejection.  It is simply the subconscious mind recognizing behavioral characteristics in another person that they deem objectionable, but which they also share, deeply suppressed and hidden within their psyche.  Rather than being able to consciously admit and identify the similarity of these behavioral traits, the afflicted person consciously denies and condemns them when perceived in others.

Trump’s Vices & Virtues Trigger Snowflakes
In Donald Trump, real estate developer, entrepreneur, wheeler-dealer, television host and billionaire, we have a person who is brimming with colossal character “defects” of one sort or another.  Trump is raw, boastful, a braggart, and sometimes a bully.  He mercilessly ridicules his opposition, he is a name caller, he makes fun of people, he taunts and teases his opponents.  He is relentless, he can be wicked, he is loud, sometimes boorish, even obnoxious — while at the same time he can be funny, engaging, engrossing, analytical, practical, a clear thinker, and a fearful opponent. He success engenders enmity, envy, and unleashes frustrated ambitions.  He achievements make small people feel smaller, and weak people feel anger at his success.

A Mirror of America’s Mental Health
TDS, or Trump Derangement Syndrome, is actually an indictment of America’s mental health.  The apparent fact that it afflicts nearly half the population of the United States in a negative way has literally nothing to do with politics, and everything to do with psychology.  Trump’s outsized “larger than life” personality pushes their buttons.  Like waving a red flag in front of a bull, simply Trump’s voice, the color orange, or the image of his face is enough to trigger these poor denizens of our urban landscape into  the most pedantic, insane, illogical and hysterical over-reactions to anything “Donald.”

Clueless Critics
Now here is the funniest part of this entire exercise.  If you ask these foaming geysers of vituperous hatred exactly WHY they hate Trump, they will invariably circle back to one of two predictable responses:  Trump is Racist or Trump is sexist.  Of course, the more creative among the sheeple may amplify this by stating he is bad, evil, and a dictator worse than Hitler.

Yet ask the same people to provide even one specific example — just one example — to prove their point, and they are at a total loss!  They will flutter and stutter, like a spinning firecracker pinwheel going nowhere, but try as they might, they cannot answer that simple question.

In fact, there is an interesting video going round of a young man interviewing people who are out on the street with signs protesting Trump, labeling him a racist, a sexist, etc. When he approaches them and asks them point blank to provide one specific example that will illustrate why the label they wish to affix to Trump is genuine, they hem and haw, roll their eyes, look up and down, or just retreat. NONE OF THEM can answer the question or provide even one example to justify their hatred.

Deranged DeNiro
The actor Robert DeNiro is a prime example.  DeNiro has become famous for being unable to make a speech over the past half dozen years without cursing and damning Donald Trump as the Devil incarnate.  And yet when he was recently interviewed and asked to provide just ONE example to justify or illustrate the horror that is Donald Trump, DeNiro was at a total loss to provide even the sketchiest illustration.  All he did was stumble, fumble, and look the fool.

Internal Cognitive Dissonance
The real answer is obvious.  Certain personality traits and characteristics of Donald Trump are recognized by the subconscious mind as qualities or characteristics that also lurk within the triggered personality.  But being consciously suppressed because they were taught that such things are not socially acceptable, the conscious mind rejects these subconsciously recognized quirks, qualities or characteristics, and with stern, hypocritical judgment, smites the triggering personage (Trump) by condemnation,  casting the most negative aspersions in a vain attempt to rid their internal recognition of the very same quality or characteristic that they have been taught to abhor.

Subconscious Scapegoat
Like the preacher who hurls forth the heavens’ fire and brimstone on sexual sinners while subconsciously lustingfor the pleasures of the very perversion they rail against, these hysterical bozos now populate the media desks in most of our nation’s newsrooms.  They are not interested in facts, just accusation, assertion and innuendo.   They are driven to feel morally superior, even though they actually harbor the same character flaws and defects that they cannot consciously admit to themselves.  And to a person, they absolutely HATE Donald Trump with a laughable passion that proves their own internal psychological contradictions and mental hangups.

Emotion Rules
Rather than oppose Trump on policy or principle, their attacks are always personal, because they do not operate from principle, but EMOTION.  FEELINGS, not thought, dominate their internal mentality, and rational logical argument is not even the last thing on their internal agenda — it simply does not even exist!

So the next time you see or hear one of these lunatics hyper-ventilating that Trump will destroy “democracy” (America has never been a democracy!), or that Trump is Hitler, or that Trump will arrest all of his opponents and throw them in jail (like Joe Biden is currently attempting),or that Trump is working with Russia (undoubtedly following Biden’s example to become China’s bitch thru bribery) take the time to have a good laugh at these psychological cripples.

They literally cannot help themselves because they are in the throws of the most dreaded psycho-political disease ever to descend upon America — and that is Trump Derangement Syndrome, and the unmitigated terror that Donald Trump may Make America Great Again!
