Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a real thing and it doesn’t just cause harm to the mental health of people. It’s harming the country.
Some have become so obsessed with their hatred of president-elect Donald Trump, they have lost all sense of reason. A perfect example in Canada is veteran journalist Andrew Coyne.
He’s back.
Rob Reiner has posted his first message to X / Twitter following Kamala Harris’ loss to President-elect Donald Trump two weeks ago. In his brief message, he urged the left to build a “competitive information distribution system” to combat “disinformation” — a baffling suggestion since the left already controls the vast majority of the corporate news media and nearly all online search engines.

The dust has not yet fully settled on the 2024 presidential election, and the Biden-Trump transition is in full swing. As the Regime Media shifts to Resistance mode, one focal point of coverage emerges: the relationship between President-Elect Donald Trump and Tesla/SpaceX founder Elon Musk, which will be covered as improper whenever possible.
For months, the left pounded the drum that the lawfare waged against then-former President Donald Trump was all about “upholding the law” and had nothing to do with the impending election. They insisted Trump was some kind of criminal mastermind and claimed that this narrative was confirmed when a jury of “peers” convicted him in May in a Manhattan show trial.
Leftist indoctrination in our public K-12 classrooms has increasingly emerged as a pivotal issue in local and national politics and the reaction of educators to Donald Trump’s victory in the election on November 5th has revealed that parents and taxpayers are right to be concerned. Trump’s win has unleashed a slew of unhinged ravings from radical leftist teachers who channeled their anger at the former, and now future, president into classroom tirades.
The House Oversight Committee is preparing for what will likely be a tense hearing on Tuesday with the administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Deanne Criswell. The hearing was called after it was disclosed that a FEMA employee told her colleagues canvassing victims of hurricanes Milton and Helene to avoid homes with signs in support of President Trump in Florida.
Liberal MPs need to stop comparing Canada’s Conservatives to Donald Trump’s Republicans as that strategy is losing its persuasive power following the U.S. presidential election, say observers.
Former Liberal staffer Olivier Cullen was among several strategists who advised the Liberal government to avoid such language.
“Positioning yourself as running against Trump-lite may not be the best approach,” he said.
MSNBC’s Morning Joe cohosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski announced on Monday they opened a line of communication with President-elect Donald Trump.
The meeting undermines their previous claims that Trump is a threat to democracy, a fascist, and “going full-on Hitler.”
They need JD Vance to attend that meet-up.
Going over will in Kamala land.
Fuck Joe & Mika.
Fuck Morning Joe.
And fuck MSNBC if they keep them on the fucking air.— Jo (@JoJoFromJerz) November 18, 2024

This New York Times “gotcha” is about as sharp as a soggy bowl of breakfast cereal.
The Times was relentlessly mocked over the weekend for appearing to unintentionally make Robert F. Kennedy Jr.‘s case in a recent article that tried to poke holes in his anti-processed-food crusade.
Kennedy, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, has long pushed for purging artificial ingredients from the food supply, routinely calling such additives “poison.”
Continuing their not-so-veiled attempt at over-compensating in favor of Palestinians, CBS used Thursday’s CBS Evening News and Friday’s CBS Mornings to kvetch about President-Elect Trump selecting former Arkansas Governor and two-time GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee as his choice for U.S. Ambassador to Israel.
Trump’s pick for Secretary of Defense has spoken out against claims that his tattoos are symbols of white supremacy, calling the criticism “anti-Christian bigotry.”
Pete Hegseth, a longtime Fox News host and war veteran, sports a large Jerusalem Cross on his chest and the Latin inscription Deus Vult, which translates to “God wills it.”
During a discussion on the necessity of the Senate’s role in advising and consenting to cabinet appointees on MSNBC’s Friday edition of The Beat with Ari Melber, activist and lawyer Maya Wiley took a bit of a detour to attack Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth for allegedly having “white supremacist and extremist tattoos.”
This weekend, Atticus Sparks plans to attend a six-hour concealed weapons permit class. He’s not a gun person, but as an 18-year-old trans man, he’s concerned he might someday need to own one, “just in case”. Since Donald Trump’s election, Sparks has faced online threats of violence and sexual assault from the president-elect’s supporters.
“Hopefully I won’t ever need a gun,” Sparks, who lives in South Carolina, said. “But everyone here is so pro-gun. I work across from a gun store, and I always see people carrying around loaded rifles.”
Along with taking his concealed carry class, Sparks faces the more banal tasks of making sure all of his documentation is in order. This week, he met with an advocate about getting his name legally changed but was told that due to the sluggish pace of family court, he probably won’t get a court date until next summer.
Sadiq Khan has said the UK should treat Donald Trump like a “best mate” who sometimes needs to be corrected or challenged.
Labour’s Mayor of London, a fierce critic of the President-elect, also said Britain should extend the “hand of friendship” to Mr Trump as he prepares to return to the White House in January.
Mr Khan claimed in the High Performance podcast recorded just before the US election that Mr Trump had criticised him in the past because the Republican was “racist”.
Last week, the NFL fined San Francisco 49ers star defensive end Nick Bosa $11,255 for displaying a “Make America Great Again” hat when he crashed the postgame, on-field interview of teammate Brock Purdy after their Oct. 27 victory over the Dallas Cowboys.
This isn’t the first time that the NFL has fined a league employee for making a right-wing political statement. In 2022, Washington Commanders Defensive Coordinator Jack Del Rio was fined $100,000 because he referred to the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6 as a “dustup.” Jan. 6 may not have been a “dustup,” but should an employee be fined $100,000 because he mischaracterized it as such? Is there no freedom of speech left in the NFL?
