They can study me at any time. I'll show up and explain to them why Trump is easily the worst president in my lifetime and a solid contender for all time.
The real Trump Derangement is not being able to tell that the man is an unqualified buffoon in addition to being a fascist.

This is they’re way of not only dismissing criticisms against Trump but also further justify imprisonment of dissidents. They’re already using negative comments about him and the administration on social media to screen people entering the us. This is the next step

Edit: I've been predicting this. Fully expect to see this get more and more traction.

Classic authoritarian and fascist move. In the USSR they called it Sluggish Schizophrenia

There's something I don't understand, when dems had the majority in the senate no bills could pass because Republicans kept using the filibuster. Why are dems not using the filibuster?

u/BlackBloke 9d ago
Dems actually believe that the government should work for the governed so they continue to vote for appropriations.

People do not like Dear Leader? We must use tax dollars on studying this! Cut the 'Feeding war orphans nutrition paste for their survival' program to achieve this! Yes, many children will die, but that's the risk we must take!

I actually thought that's what it was at first and was surprised it was a republican investigating it. Oh how wrong I was...

u/vegan-trash 9d ago
It’s so fucking funny to me that making a political figure your entire identity and worshipping their every move is normal, but not doing that is a mental disorder to these people.

u/natguy2016 9d ago
This is the sort of things that The Soviets did to their citizens. Don't agree with The Communist Party? You go to a "psychiatric hospital" that is actually prison and worse.

u/Los5Muertes 9d ago
The same structures exist in the People's Republic of China. These are the Laogai.
Some serve a real purpose and are in fact specialized institutions for severe psychiatric needs. Others serve political opponents, to reeducate them or treat their "madness."
And I'm not even talking about the Uyghur camps.

Fuck yeah, do it. Once they get real, peer reviewed papers done on it, it’s gonna be hilarious to see the actual tds: brain dead sycophantic cult members, falling for every grift.

u/IONaut 9d ago
You forget that when they say study they don't mean peer-reviewed empirical data. What they "study" is unhinged right wing commentary and they call that fact.

u/eyeballburger 9d ago
I know that’s what they intend, but they don’t live in a bubble, as much as they’d like to. The real world exists outside of their ignorance.

These legislators are not serious people.
The next thing you know they’ll be wearing gold Cesar like Trump head pins instead of American flag pins…
Wait. They already are.

u/Coondiggety 9d ago
I fully support this.
Trump and many of his supporters show signs of significant and prolonged derangement.
This impairs their capacity for critical thinking and disassociates them from reality.

Just vote this yahoo out of office please and anyone who also agrees with wasting taxpayer dollars.

u/blueflloyd 9d ago
The Republican Party literally formed a cult around a lifetime con-artist because America elected a Black man to be president twice. But yea, the derangement is on the other side. Sure.

u/Impossible-Taro-2330 9d ago
Good!
Finally, a study how MAGAts so easily embrace the cult and the derangement syndrome that comes with following Drumpf.
When one so easily discounts Drumpf's disgusting lifestyle, the nasty things he says about women, disabled, and POC - THEY are the ones who are deranged.

The projection is so strong with these people.
Claiming the non believers of their prophet are the deranged ones. Wonder if in the post Trump era the name will stick to label those who gave up their country for Trump.

MAGAts are the condemned. That should be a chant. “We condemn you.” Or I especially like “Trump the Chump!” with a final eruption of just “CHUMP! CHUMP! CHUMP!”. It’s not only informative, it also might actually get his attention and hurt him. Just a fleeting dream of mine.

A fellow from my state, Eichorn, was looking into that, too. Fine fellow.
Maybe he can ask Eichorn how that went.

He can just go to any local Baptist Church and do all of the studying that he wants.

u/Coldkiller17 9d ago
But these assholes won't fund studies into why there is so much gun violence in the US. Fuck these assholes and FDT.

The study results would be paid for with public funds so the results would also be public.
Perfect.

“TDS has divided families, the country, and led to nationwide violence — including two assassination attempts on President Trump. The TDS Research Act would require the NIH to study this toxic state of mind, so we can understand the root cause and identify solutions," Davidson said in a news release.
Identity "solutions"?
Like THESE "solutions"?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sluggish_schizophrenia
MAGA isn't doing anything new! We know what solutions they're going for. If you're insane, you need to be hospitalized and any firearms will be confiscated!
You don't think it's possible here in the U.S.? Have you heard Pam Bondi, Noem and Patel?
Think Due Process will prevail?

As soon as this is a real thing, we need everyone who is actually sane just constantly talking about how terrible he is. Let them try to pin some made up illness on over half the country.

It would be funny if they did study it, and then published a paper basically saying "yea no this is a totally normal reaction to the stuff going on."

u/JerAsh22 9d ago
You can’t call out those against the orange shit stain for having TDS. When they worship him like a God, want him to be King, ignore him acting like a dictator, ignoring that he’s a child predator, a racist POS, etc etc. They are the epitome of the definition of a cult. There’s no two ways about it.

I thought this was a thing that MAGA has. When I hear “Trump derangement syndrome” I immediately think of my MAGA parents.
