OK so I have to admit, I'd never heard this term, in fact I actually gave credit to CBB for coming up with the term and thought though inapplicable, it was kind of catchy, but alas, it was already a "thing" he just borrowed. So what IS TDS, the definition is thus:
A mental dysfunction causing those detractors with hateful thoughts and feelings about Donald Trump to go unhinged.
First and foremost, I do not HATE nor have violent feelings toward Trump, I'm just pointing out his flaws. It's what we do with public figures, we dissect them and critique them and try to ascertain their intent. All of which are prudent.
So TDS most definitely does not apply to me, but honestly--why is this even a thing?
Well most agree (and it makes complete sense) that the advent of TDS was to discredit those who have negative opinions of Trump, his actions and his policies. Thus the "Deranged" moniker in the phrase. It's a ploy to label those with credible critiques and concerns regarding Trump as Crazy and thus diminish their veracity. It's a typical Fox/Breitbart/Political ploy--If you can't contradict someone with facts or an intelligent opposing viewpoint, you try to make them look stupid by creating a derogatory label or a catchphrase. It's a sophisticated way of responding Ï know you are, but what am I' when confronted with an argument you cannot win. It didn't work in 3rd grade and it's not really working now. It is kind of catchy but highly unoriginal.
Now for those with comprehension issues, do NOT confuse me calling 45 a dick with hatred, I know a lots of people act like dicks--in here I think everyone of us (with 1-2) exceptions has acted dick-ish on occasion. Do not confuse my wish to see him out of office with some violent action making it so.
I have and voice valid concerns and critique of his actions, methods and policies.
Stating that I or anyone else here suffers from some made up bullshit for doing so only reveals your inability to have an adult conversation about the issues.
Let's just call TDS what it really is--Trump Supporter Deflection Strategy.
If I do seem unhinged it is probably in regard to Trump's Supporters and that's only because I just can't imagine anyone actually being that ignorant or backward. When I hear some of the responses in here by certain Trumpets, I feel like I'm watching an episode of Cops where the stumbling drunk is trying to convince the cop he hasn't had a drink all day and then laughs one of those beavis and butthead giggles on the way into the backseat of the patrol car.
So TDS , yeah it was cute, but it's just more bullshit used by those without answers to obfuscate the issues.
