... Trump never did.

He also never flew on the Lolita Express, on which we KNOW Bill Clinton and several other prominent Democrats did.

"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."

AlleyCat is one of the several people who dominate Rudy on a daily basis, keeping their bootheels on his little pencil neck to the amusement of all.

The TL;DR Version: Pathological liars, like Rudy, MAY LOSE HIS JOB, RELATIONSHIPS, AND PUBLIC STANDING BECAUSE THE LIES BECOME TOO RIDICULOUS OR NUMEROUS.

Called pathological liar, compulsive liar, or habitual liar, Rudy has a strong tendency to lie or exaggerate. Typically, he has no regard for the truth. 

What Is a Pathological Liar? 

Rudy, the pathological liar is a person who lies at a high frequency and has no regard for the repercussions of his lies. He will lie to anyone at any time about any issue. The lies could be big or small, detailed or vague, or orchestrated or spontaneous. For pathological liars, it seems his only goal is to lie. 

Typical lies have a clear purpose, including to avoid trouble, gain benefit, or impress HIMSELF.

A pathological liar differs from normal lying behavior based on the frequency, the duration, and the goal of his lies. 

The lies that a pathologcal liar, like Rudy, tells, are:

Lies that are extensive and overly complicated Lies and patterns of lying that last for years or a lifetime Lies that are disproportionate or unrelated to any end goal Lies that are not a result of another mental or medical health condition.

Well, we already KNOW that isn't true... Rudy has MULTIPLE mental problems. 

Based on these factors, Rudy's pathological lying could be defined as "a persistent, pervasive, and often compulsive pattern of excessive lying behavior that leads to clinically significant impairment of functioning in social, occupational, or other areas."

Other characteristic of Rudy's pathological lying are: 

It causes marked distress to the individual
It poses a risk to others
It occurs for longer than 6 months 

Rudy may also be called a:

Compulsive liar
Habitual liar
Chronic liar
Person with mythomania 
Person with pseudologia fantastica 


5 Signs of Rudy's Pathological Lying: 

Because his lies are often concealed well, Rudy, the pathological liar may be well disguised among other people. With time, the pattern of untruths and inconsistencies may become more apparent. For the most part, though, his pathological lies will blend in with the truth, making these statements challenging to discern. Even discovering the lies may not be enough to stop the liar from telling them.

Here are five signs of Rudy, the pathological liar:

Speaking in vague or general terms:

(BINGO!  or semantically vague... take your pick)

Liars, like Rudy, will try to avoid the future distress of having to recall what lies he has told to which people by keeping information loose and vague. 

Even something benign, like his favorite place to give blowjobs, can turn into a long story with no solid answer.

The goal of this behavior is to keep his answer from conflicting with any lies they may have told in the past.

Being overly specific or detailed: Alternatively, Rudy, the liar, may offer stories with numerous fine points and details. The plan here is to be so specific that no one could possibly question the truthfulness of the story because the details are convincing.

Inconsistencies in stories: Rudy, the pathological liar, will not have a perfect memory, so it is only a matter of time before he slips up by confusing one lie for another. Hearing multiple responses to the same question will be a way to identify a pathological liar.

Failure to commit to plans or often canceling plans: Rudy the pathological liar will avoid making plans or may make plans and frequently cancel. This is because he needs to keep his options open for other opportunities.

BECOMING ANGRY AND DEFENSIVE WHEN QUESTIONED: Rudy the liar, will make excuses when caught in a lie. When the other person's patience is thin, Rudy, the liar, may become angry or defensive to take the focus off of his lies.

5 Characteristics of Pathological Lying 

The seeming randomness and unimportance of pathological lies may surprise people. Some lies will have no influence or impact on a relationship or situation whatsoever. Any story, situation, or exaggeration a person can imagine may become a pathological lie. Specific lies are endless, but they often have commonalities. 

Pathological lies share these five characteristics:

Frequency:
Rudy, the pathological liar, lies more often than others and average about ten or MORE lies per day. In terms of frequency, the lies could all be variations of the same lie or 10 separate lies. To Rudy, the liar, the actual lie may not be as important as the process of lying.

Long in duration: 
Studies show that Rudy, the pathological liar, will continue with the excessive 
lying for at least six decades. He may continue with a lie over the 
long-term, or he may move from lie to lie with fluidity. Pathological 
liars, like Rudy, are typically able to maintain a lie for years.

Lacking purpose: 
Rudy's pathological lies are confounding because they serve no purpose and accomplish no goal, other than for himself. Rudy, the liar, may say that his favorite color is blue when it is actually orange or that his favorite food is pizza when it is really lobster. This lie does not benefit the liar, but they say it anyway.

Stress inducing:
Pathological liars, like Rudy, experience higher rates of stress from lying. The stress may come from the intricacy of ongoing lies and the risk of being caught.

Self-incriminating and defeating:
Standard lies can get Rudy out of trouble, but pathological lies get him into trouble.

Pathological liars, like Rudy, MAY LOSE HIS JOB, RELATIONSHIPS, AND PUBLIC STANDING BECAUSE THE LIES BECOME TOO RIDICULOUS OR NUMEROUS.
