A form of mud-slinging used by supporters of a president that aims to mock their opposition. "President Derangement Syndrome" is the argument that the very existence of said president makes their opposition irrationally angry and unable to think of a legitimate reason for their contempt of said president.
When used in a sentence, the word "President" is replaced with the actual president's surname; for example, if this argument were to be used against those who were opposed to Barack Obama, it would be called "Obama Derangement Syndrome."
President Derangement Syndrome is commonly attributed to Donald Trump, leading to an erroneous belief that it started with his presidency; in fact, it started with George W. Bush -- "Bush Derangement Syndrome." Ironically, Bush wound up being quite possibly the most universally hated president in history, and his vice president became not only the most unpopular vice president of all time, but also one of the most unpopular U.S politicians EVER.
The phrase experienced a resurgence under Donald Trump due to him being the most utterly polarizing person in America, as well as the infamous meme "Luke Crywalker" where a woman screams "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" as she hears the news of his inauguration. It proved to be such a commonly used argument by his supporters that it completely overshadowed its predecessor, especially because Trump isn't as universally hated as Bush, so it still holds up.

Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) diagnosable condition in which one acts irrationally towards 45th and 47th President Donald J Trump. TDS applies both ways. On one end of the spectrum, Trump Derangement Syndrome causes one to hate Donald J Trump to the point of fabricating or heavily misconstruing information to defame his character. However, Trump Derangement Syndrome applies to the other end of the political spectrum, as well. Sufferers of Type 2 TDS will often act sycophantic towards Donald J Trump, and defend him vehemently in online forums, or consistently insult those who do not share the same god-like view of Donald J Trump.
Left-leaning TDS patient: “Trump is a pedophile!”
Right-leaning TDS patient: “Trump is literally Jesus and will save us!”
Psychiatrist: “You both have Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME : An observed state of mass-psychosis marked by the misguided belief that Donald Trump, despite documented failures, is a competent leader and successful businessman.
Supporters in this view often worship Trump as a godly figure, ignoring the absence of any known religion, his lack of moral compass, and a lifelong, public display of the seven deadly sins.
Additionally, trust is placed in Trump, despite overwhelming evidence of falsehoods, liability for sexual assault, findings of career fraud, theft of classified documents, 91 felony indictments, and the incitement of a mob at the US Capitol as part of attempted violent coup in the 2020 US Presidential election.
Additionally, this delusion ignores other dangerous and disturbing aspects of his character, including, but not limited to: erratic behavior, dictatorial rhetoric, possible amphetamine abuse, conspiratorial thinking, apparent narcissistic-personality-disorder, lack of empathy, racist dog-whistles, sociopathy, and striking similarities to the biblical description of the Antichrist.
"I was trying to convince my uncle that Trump is potentially the most dangerous man in the world right now, but no matter how many facts I presented, he wouldn't believe them. It was like talking to a brick-wall. A brain-washed brick wall. Trump Derangement Syndrome is real. "
