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.

    The thing is that doesnt matter. These actions will destroy our country before he is out of office. You’ll be seeing starving children in the streets and much worse.

      …before he is out of office.

      That’s just a truism for anything, no matter how long it takes, since he doesn’t intend to leave. Better to say “before the end of his term” or “within a few years” if your estimate is specifically that soon.
