Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Mary Trump, at this point, isn't saying anything she didn't say 5+ years ago. The whole family are a bunch of blowhards, and she's definitely just flogging books at this point for people that genuinely do suffer from TDS. They grifted the political right wing, now they want some of that sweet sweet librul money.
"TDS" isn't a real thing. It's called being concerned that your nation elected a literal traitor as president, who then attempted to steal an election and hold a fascist coup.
Seems like a pretty reasonable thing to be upset about.
....what the hell is TDS? Tonald Drump Syndrome?
Trump Derangement Syndrome. It started with 'Bush Derangement Syndrome' back around 2005. Left leaning folks who pointed out what a terrible President George W. was were accused of being insane. Then came Obama Derangement Syndrome, where folks on the Right really were going insane. Here's the Tan Suit Scandal as an example
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_tan_suit_controversy
At least one high ranking GOP official called out the President's attire.
It's gaslighting at it's best. If the Left calls out the Right on actual problems, the Right accuses the Left of insanity.
Unbelievable. This article reads like satire. 😅
They also called him out for putting his feet on the Presidential desk and holding onto his coffee cup while saluting a Marine.
wait till you hear about Dijongate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-WnoZbjdh4

Scary book. The tl, dr is that, in 1970, the author predicted a lot of what has come to pass.
Another one to the Kindle.
'Stand On Zanzibar' by John Brunner. Brunner was a science fiction writer who took 'Future Shock' to heart. It's the 1970's vision of what the early 2000's would look like. Scary how many things he got right.
Bro you have TDS if you're utilizing fucking "Trump derangement syndrome" as an actual insult against people who are against Trump. You've got some right wing brainwashing affecting you and probably need to get your mind right.
MAGAtards are the true idiots who suffer Trump Derangement Syndrome, because who else but a deranged person would go to prison for that fucking dementia addled megalomaniacal narcissist?
TDS was always projection to dehumanize Trump's enemies to make them appear "deranged" to his Qult followers.
Thanks for defining TDS for me. I was totally confused there.
Magatards…. This is so wrong but I can’t stop laughing
Lol
There's quite a few good nicknames for MAGAs, Qult45 is another, Trump-pets works too, I've seen a bunch of good ones over the years but MAGAtards, while being completely politically incorrect, conveys my contempt for MAGA people.
My personal favorite is "magat".
Definitely one of the ones I forgot, yeah that one is good too.
I prefer Re-Tards.
Whenever I see TDS mentioned, I think of Trump's Nuremberg-style rallies with his slavering cultists and rambling hate speeches, and its hard to remember that "TDS" is supposed to be an insult directed at those on the left.
I haven't seen TDS used since the supreme court overturned roe vs wade and proved all those smug "libruls" right. Really since january 6th opened the stupidity wormhole it hasn't made any sense. Its surprising seeing somebody use it unironically as though they've been in a coma since 2018 and just woke up.
I thought it was dumb when I first started seeing it in 2015 or so. It wasn't even original (just ripped off CDS and ODS), and when it is applied to anyone critiquing someone such as donnie who is so unqualified and so flawed and terrible as a person vs. those that went into full rage-outs (and still do) over Hillary, Bill and Barack, it borders on laughable.
As always, the right are projecting. They had full derangement over tan suits, latte salutes, long form birth certificates, bad land deals (that the Clintons lost money on) and stains on dresses. They have no leg to stand on when claiming anyone has "derangement" over donnie.
Trump derangement syndrome means you want to gag on his orange pecker daily
TDS = Traitor Dick Sucker, which is you.
Lmao yet another person who thinks TDS is a real thing, and not just a lie Trump simps tell themselves
People that talk about "TDS" unironically remind me of the people that go on and on about "woke" as if it's a bad thing.
