TSD sufferer Rudy Canoza says...  

> He said it when he signed the unconstitutional executive order:  "When 
> you burn the American flag, it incites riots at levels that we've never seen 
> before. People go crazy."

No video, 0% believability. All we can find is people saying Trump said it, but no video.

How do you KNOW he said those exact words, without watching him say them?

The Lyin' Times of New York say that?

"Trump said he had to outlaw flag burning because it was causing riots." - Holeman

ABCNews out of context on what Trump "said": "... MAY incite violence and riot."

MAY is pretty far from "Trump said he had to outlaw flag burning because it WAS causing riots. 

Snopes: "Trump's EXECUTIVE ORDER CLAIMED that burning the flag "may incite violence and riot."

So... did TRUMP say it, or was it in the Executive Order?

Trump never said, "... it was causing riots," at least there are no videos to back this claim up. Produce the video, and I'll shut 
up about it.

Did Trump WRITE the Executive Order? If not, HE wasn't "saying it" even if he said it, because he was REITERATING what the E.O. 
says... right?

Forbes says he said it...

"'When you burn the American flag, it incites riots at levels that we've never seen before,' Trump, a longtime vocal critic of flag 
burning, said while signing the executive order."

... so why is there no video of him saying it?

Here's PBS saying Trump said, "The people in this country don't want to see our American Flag burned and spit on...", then cut the 
video and SAID, "The President said flag burning incites riots and those that do so will face a year in jail."

Why did they cut the video and not SHOW Trump saying, "When you burn the American flag, it incites riots at levels that we've never 
seen before."?????

WHY can't we find the video of him saying this, because it WAS video'd.

ANYONE can SAY he said what, but without video...


Poor Rudy... TDS sufferer, par exellance.

"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."
