Even some on the left see TDS

Atlantic leftist writer (VERY clear from some of his assumptions) points out how Paul Krugman suffers from TDS.

"...In short, Krugman is suffering from an especially public case of what’s come to be known as Trump Derangement Syndrome. Appalled by the Republican Party’s most bigoted leaders, whose rise he traces at least as far back as the George W. Bush administration, he has allowed himself to believe that nearly all Republicans are corrupt and evil, and therefore that reasoned argument is futile. “The modern G.O.P. doesn’t do policy analysis,” he pronounces. Yet the reality is subtler. Republicans are more open to reason than Krugman allows...."

"...What gives the anti-anti-Trump left its emotional impetus is a simmering resentment against the center-left, especially the way the Russia and Ukraine scandals have made Democrats lionize elements of the security Establishment. “My discomfort in the last few years, first with Russiagate and now with Ukrainegate and impeachment, stems from the belief that the people pushing hardest for Trump’s early removal are more dangerous than Trump,” writes Matt Taibbi.

Ted Rall, who has been given space on The Wall Street Journal op-ed page to publish periodic anti-anti-Trump columns, uses one of his recent pieces to quote Doug Henwood, a fellow leftist. “It seems like a lot of Dems think that everything was pretty much OK until Trump took office, and if we can just get back to the status quo ante, everything will be all right,” Henwood says, “Add to that the fact that impeachment is making liberals celebrate spies, prosecutors, and heavily medaled soldiers — people no one on the left should have any warm feelings towards — and you get a serious feeling of derangement....""

let's review....

many thought DJT would run as a donk

DJT announces as ®

the RNC began to denounce DJT

DJT threatens to run (I)

RNC backs down

DJT wins the general

DNC immediately goes on witch hunt with 'muh russia'

® loses the house after holding a full majority b/c ~45 house members were *******

'muh russia' fails even after (d) takes control of the house

(d) immediately begins impeachment proceedings w/o any factual basis based on paid for hire russian surrogate by the DNC (that will most certainly become the biggest conspiracy in U.S. history after Barr and Durham get finished)

the majority of the msm critiques the msm and bashes the President like the little weenie arse self serving biatches w/o any ethical valuation after fully adopting the principles of William Randolph Hearst.....

yep, that's about right....

I can't figure out why congressional and msm approval ratings are at an all time low..../sarc
