Conservative political pundits and others have suggested for years that Trump Derangement Syndrome is real. Whether TDS is a psychological disorder, uncontrollable obsession with all things Donald Trump, out-of-control bitterness, or a combination of all of the above, its symptoms couldn’t be more recognizable.
Among those most afflicted with TDS, two-time Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and serial-lying California Sen. Adam Schiff immediately come to mind.
But hey — don’t take my word for it. Let’s go to Maryland Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin for perhaps the best example yet.
As reported by Punchbowl News, Raskin, the House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member, has enlisted psychologists to help Democrats on the panel cope with President Donald Trump’s first week in office.
If the recruitment of psychologists by a House Democrat leader doesn’t convince skeptics that TDS is real, I’m not sure what would.
Here’s more (emphasis, mine):
During a retreat last week for Judiciary Democrats, Raskin — the new ranking member of the key panel — hosted Jim Coan, a University of Virginia professor of psychology, and Hal Movius, a consultant who specializes in “negotiation,” “influence,” “emotion regulation,” “leadership” and “organizational development.”
Coan’s “recent work emphasizes the neural systems supporting social forms of emotion regulation,” according to his bio with UVa. The retreat was held at the Library of Congress.
The purpose of the session, according to multiple attendees, was to counsel Democrats about how to approach conflict and effectively combat what Raskin described as “authoritarian styles of speech.” Another attendee said Judiciary Democrats were also advised to avoid devolving into partisan mud-slinging — a more common hallmark of the House Oversight Committee, which Raskin previously led as the top Democrat.
There it is, my Democrat friends. Care to respond?

Mike Davis, founder and president of the pro-Trump Article III Project, nailed it.
This is only President Trump’s first week in office, and he’s already broken the House Democrats’ brains again. They’re already calling their shrinks.
And not to miss a perfect opportunity, House Republican Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (KY) mocked Raskin for needing therapy to overcome “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
Jamie Raskin has faced a difficult few months. The American people rejected what Jamie Raskin and other Democrats were selling, President Trump won in a landslide, and Jamie Raskin even received a preemptive pardon from Joe Biden — a move the Biden Justice Department has argued implies an admission of guilt.
It’s no surprise that Jamie Raskin summoned professional psychologists to provide therapy for Democrats afflicted with the incurable disease of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) in the wake of all this winning. However, no amount of therapy will help Jamie Raskin and other Democrats suffering from TDS as they face the endless wins from the Trump Administration benefiting the American people.
Ouch — I bet that left a mark. Then again, knowing Raskin, I doubt it.
