"I'm proud to be an American...

But don't post on social media about your opinions of Biden, Ukraine,
China or butt-fucking/blow-jobbing in the streets Drag Queens.
Accept the higher costs of near-double-digit inflation and double gas
prices, without complaining.
Don't dare marginalized the poor "we only want to help the children"
Drag Queens, or "LGBTQ..." people.
Bow down to atheistic and Nazi demands.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a
person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of
Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and
reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece
in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three
distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of
proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely
of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish
fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the
knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump
does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made,
TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something nefarious,
according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. -
that Trump could do or say that would be received positively by
TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the
early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch
line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term
first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer
back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute
onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in reaction to the
policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W.
Bush."
