...I'm confused. He named a new mental illness after himself now?

[–] T156@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Not him, but a bunch of other people on his political party.

It does feel a little like an attempt to legitimise it, so that criticisms are flipped off as mental illness, and/or an opportunity for institutionalising/excluding political opponents for much the same reason.

This is their attempt to get around that pesky 1st amendment. Make criticism of the king a "mental disorder", and then you can lock them up involuntarily "for their own protection".

A little?

This is directly attempting to make criticizing Trump result in active life fuck-uppery.

These are the same morons that have Biden Derangement Syndrome.

The best thing about someone using the term Trump derangement syndrome unironically is that I know I can just ignore them and nothing of value will be lost.

Shouldn't it be "Trump's Derangement Syndrome"?

Michigan Republicans

probably worth noting that their Governor is Tim Walz, the VP candidate from the last election. One of the few Democratic Party members who is in the news constantly for criticism of the current President.

Not that this has a chance to pass because the DFL controls the State Senate and the Governors office, but I be its a political ploy so they can say then need to remove Walz because he is mentally unsound.
