Editor,
As I read Bob McClellan’s letter to the editor, the adage “the pot calling the kettle black” came to mind. He came up with the term “Trumpism” to label anyone supporting President Trump.
He said Trumpism is characterized by fear, anger, and self-centeredness. I would argue that this is a definition of Trump Derangement Syndrome. It was on full display at the DNC convention. There was lots of hate speech, anger and the inability to separate facts from lies. Joe Biden even advocated to “beat the hell out of the Republicans.”
They accused Trump of everything the Democratic party is currently doing. As RFK put it this week, the Democratic party is the anti-democratic party. It is the party that believes in censorship and using lawfare against any political opponent, including fellow Democrats. They want total control and do not care what they must do to obtain that control.
Another characterization of TDS is total obsession with President Trump and MAGA policies to the point of being neurotic and even being possessed. Anyone with TDS seems to lose the ability to think logically and discuss issues in a calm manner. Instead of disagreeing in a respectful way they immediately start denigrating you by calling you names such as, racist, homophobe, misogynist, deplorable, etc.
After hearing what the Democratic party did to RFK I hope more people will be delivered from TDS and choose a more acceptable human thinking and behavior. Looking forward to see Bob move in that direction and reject the dangerous form of autocracy the Democratic party has become.
