Dr. Oz Shares Medical Advice for Trump Derangement Syndrome: “Treating Stupid is Really Hard”
Dr. Mehmet Oz just gave his expert medical opinion on Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The CMS Administrator had his turn filling in for White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt today while she is out on maternity leave.
Prompted by a reporter’s question during the briefing, Dr. Oz implied that TDS sadly has no cure.
“I am concerned about folks who have focused their entire life energy on dislike of the president,” Dr. Oz responded,“It’s disheartening to see people lost in that way, but treating stupid is really hard, and it becomes a real problem and these folks are off.”
Watch his full answer here:
We like to joke about TDS, and it is quite a funny term.
But, it’s actually been confirmed as a real mental disease by psychologists.
The Washington Times has more on that:
Trump Derangement Syndrome is a negative term used by Trump supporters for pundits and politicians who have an intense or visceral reaction to Mr. Trump’s political actions or public comments.
Originally coined by Charles Krauthammer, a psychiatrist, the label suggests that some of his opponents go beyond legitimate public concerns into existential hatred or forms of psychosis. Mr. Trump’s critics argue that the label has been weaponized to dismiss political disagreement.
Rep. Warren Davidson, Ohio Republican, introduced a bill last year that would direct the National Institutes of Health to study the psychological and social roots of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The bill, which stalled in the House, would have used existing NIH funds to study the roots and long-term impact of the phenomenon.
