Summary
Five Republican Minnesota state senators plan to introduce a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS) as a mental illness, defining it as “acute paranoia” about Trump’s presidency.
The bill argues TDS causes hysteria, verbal hostility, and aggression toward Trump supporters.
Critics argue this represents a dangerous politicization of mental health diagnoses that could suppress political expression.
The bill will be read Monday before the Minnesota Senate Health and Human Services Committee, where Democrats hold a narrow majority.
Won’t tds being a diagnosable mental health condition make those exhibiting it a protected class?
No, that’s not what they want, this is more like the Nazis putting the stars on people in camps to designate visually who to attack first.
Yeah, if the rule of law meant anything. It doesn’t anymore.
