One of the root causes of TDS

[bambino]

It was fucking Odumber!!!! That commie made it legal for fake news to promote propaganda. You can view the fruits of this right here in this forum everyday. One of the few things that Odummer did that worked.

FAKE NEWS is a lie.

FAKE NEWS does not inform us, it misleads us.

Our republic cannot be restored until we are informed with TRUTH.

We cannot accept “business as usual.” We must demand change.

We will only find our way, i.e., our “future,” as a republic if informed by TRUTH. If “informed” by lies, we will not find the right “way” forward as a republic.

Our “life” as a republic will not be successful.

Jesus Christ is the Way, the TRUTH, and the Life.

Just sayin.’

As much as I didn’t like whomever was running the Biden administration (it wasn’t Joe), I didn’t want the country to do poorly. But I will say I disagreed with most of the policies.

For those afflicted with TDS they want to see the US do poorly. If the country does well that makes 47 look good and they can’t have that.

so now were throwing JC into the mix of causes of "TDS". I guess if the rest of your argument requires the blind faith approach that comes from any religion- then sure.

Another idea is that Trump attracts the 1/3 or so of the population who are prone to being True Believers, in the sense described in Eric Hoffer’s 1951 book The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements. These are people who yearn for certainty and exclusivity and want a charismatic leader to follow without question.

These folks are always around. Trump didn’t create them. He did pull a lot of them together, get them concentrated, so to speak, and get them energized. The damage he and they are doing and they’ll do after he’s gone will take decades to repair, and some will never be fixed.


Generally, when I hear people criticizing Trump they’re talking about specific things he’s done and said. That’s not derangement.

On the other hand, the typical response from Trump supporters is not any kind of defense of Trump’s actions. It’s a mixture of whataboutism, ad hominem attacks on the critic of Trump, accusations that “you hate him” when the criticism was about his behavior rather than any expression of hatred, non sequiturs, and condescending statements that the critic has been fooled (by objective reality, I guess. After all, Trump did tell people not to believe what they see and hear, to believe what he says instead.) The most striking thing about this is the high degree of projection from the Trump people, especially in the area of accusations of hatred. (the hate of leftists or progressive is far beyond the disgust the left has for the conservatives).

People opposed to Trump generally have particular issues that they are most concerned about, and are upset at him because of his actions in those areas. Again, that’s not derangement, I don’t think.

The message I get from this approach that is so lacking in substance and rigor is that it’s all they’ve got. If they had better arguments they’d use them. TDS is more accurately "Total dishonesty and spurious", and stems from patient zero- DJT himself. The guy cannot tell the truth EVER.

(unless he is being deposed and then he usually gets a disfavorable ruling- like 95% of the time- but his followers just keep believing the lie).

Ok Eye let’s play.

Are there things during terms 45 or 47 that happened as a result of Trump that you would deem as good? Or was it all bad?

I’m willing to bet you won’t give a specific answer. Let’s see how much TDS is out there.

I have quite a few things that I think Don Don did alright and some he did poorly.

He had some ok economic policies- pressing for reduced rates and borrowing for loans- and some around ideas on increasing veterans services and also with criminal justice reform, to reduce recidivism; and even with addressing the opioid crisis, which has been out of hand since 2008 ish, starting in Florida primarily.

He got the nation started with deregulations for healthcare such as on covid innoculations, but I know team red hat both applaud him for that, and hate him for that at the same time. The fauci ouchie etc., AND thankfully- He actually had a few ppl in his cabinet that kept the guard rails on/ up.

I can tell you his handling of the US postal service fuck ups and even the dept of education was a FUCKING Shit show. How does a guy try to completely disrupt the mail system at the height of voting for a national election? He threw a tantrum of the election results which he nor Mike the pillow guy ever proved.

He's thrown so much distrust in both the government institutions and media, that we are still in recovery from the first administration; so not so sure when superman comes to save the day- but this guy shouldn't be in charge of anything related to education; letting the facts of never releasing his academic records, or his taxes to do the talking of his absolute prowess that team Red thinks he has. How about how Nancy Devoss and this current slag cunt- McMahon are a total fucking disgrace who will do anything that he tells them to do. DIsmantling education will only hurt this nation- fixing it might be a better option. (which the courts have just ruled that he cannot disembowel the DEpt of E and must rehire 1300 ppl wrongly terminated. Or him bringing on of RFK, who is a literal moron and a huge mistake, and I might ask anyone here- would you let a guy with a brain worm and ex- addict be in charge of anything medical for you or your family???? getthefuckoutahere.

So why don't you tell us what you think he did well and what he sucked at?
