CONFIRMED: Psychologists Now Classify Trump Derangement Syndrome as LEGITIMATE Psychiatric Disorder

It's official, folks. What conservatives have been saying for nearly a decade has now been confirmed by the mental health establishment itself: Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real, diagnosable psychiatric condition—and it's reaching epidemic levels across America.

Therapists nationwide are sounding the alarm as their offices fill with patients presenting identical symptoms: insomnia, panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, and an inability to function normally in daily life. The common thread? An all-consuming hatred for one man—President Donald J. Trump.

The Science Behind the Madness

Dr. Gad Saad, a renowned evolutionary psychologist, has stepped forward to classify TDS as a legitimate psychiatric disorder. He describes it as a form of "parasitic thinking" where emotional processing completely hijacks cognitive function.

"These people never critique policy positions or fiscal decisions. They give purely emotional responses. 'He disgusts me. He is grotesque.' The hatred is driven by what I call aesthetic injury—because Trump represents an existential threat to the carefully constructed progressive identity."

Let that sink in, Patriots. These aren't people debating tariff policy or border security measures. They're experiencing visceral, physical reactions to the mere existence of our duly elected President.

Case Studies in Liberal Lunacy

One therapist shared a case that perfectly encapsulates the insanity gripping the left. A patient literally could not enjoy her vacation because every time she saw Trump on her phone or in the news, she felt "triggered." A grown adult—whose brain has been so thoroughly rewired by mainstream media consumption—that the mere image of a political figure destroys her ability to experience basic human joy.

The therapist called it "the defining pathology of our time." We couldn't agree more.

The behavioral examples are staggering and would be laughable if they weren't so disturbing. Amy Schumer announced she's fleeing to London because Trump won. Teachers have gone viral declaring they won't have children "because of Trump." Perhaps most disturbingly, kindergarten teachers at Propel Northside in Pittsburgh were caught crossing their fingers and hoping for Trump's assassination. These are the people shaping young American minds.

Even Liberals Are Sounding the Alarm

Here's where it gets truly remarkable. Bill Maher—yes, that Bill Maher—delivered a stunning confession. He admitted that Trump Derangement Syndrome has "hijacked America for over a decade" and that he literally cannot be around people who suffer from it anymore.

"When your whole personality is built around 'what are we going to do about Donald Trump,' I just can't engage."

When a career liberal commentator admits his own side has lost its collective mind, you know we've crossed into unprecedented territory.

Greg Gutfeld brilliantly reframed the condition as "Trump Derangement Addiction." Like alcoholism, it creates a filter that everything passes through. It becomes an all-consuming obsession that nobody else can penetrate. Gutfeld suggests we need a twelve-step program for wokism—because these people cannot admit they need help.

There Is Hope

But here's the good news: recovery is possible. Michael Rapaport, who once suffered from severe TDS, has broken free from the spell and recently announced he's running for New York City mayor in 2029. The mind virus can be defeated.

Steve Hilton exposed how TDS is forcing Democrats into impossible positions—now defending the Iranian regime and Danish colonialism in Greenland simply because Trump opposes these things. People who spent years calling everything "racist" and "colonialist" are now defending actual colonialism because their hatred overrides their principles.

When millions of Americans experience genuine psychological distress because one man lives rent-free in their heads, we're witnessing mass manipulation on a scale never before seen in American history. The mainstream media created this monster. Big Tech amplified it. And now mental health professionals are left picking up the pieces.

The question every American needs to ask themselves: Will you let political content—manufactured by corporate media with an agenda—control your emotional state? Or will you think for yourself?

This is interesting but I'm curious - what specific diagnostic criteria are they using? Would love to see the actual research behind this classification.

Good question - hopefully they publish the full study soon so we can see the methodology.

About time the psychological community acknowledged what we've all witnessed firsthand. My own brother hasn't spoken to me in 4 years just because I voted differently - that's not healthy political discourse.

FINALLY! I've been saying this for years - the irrational hatred and obsession some people have is absolutely not normal. You can disagree with a politician without having a complete meltdown every time his name is mentioned.

As someone in the medical field, I've definitely observed concerning behavioral patterns that go way beyond typical political disagreement.
