The fifth stage: Guilt.  There is no guilt whatsoever over behaving badly.  Nor are there any repercussions for being rude, crude, obnoxious, unseemly, mendacious, hateful, loathsome, insufferable, intolerable, abhorrent, despicable, offensive, or repugnant.  Threatening to harm the president, his wife, his kids, Cabinet appointees, and White House employees is par for the course.  Beating a Trump-supporter to a bloody pulp earns the perpetrator praise.  Public displays of vulgarity against the president are all too common, and when was the last time someone in Hollywood apologized for spewing Trump-related obscenities?  Once considered beyond the pale, jokes about injuring or killing President Trump are rarely denounced.  In fact, this type of humor is encouraged.

The sixth stage: Depression.  Unfortunately, there is no magic pill that permanently cures TDS and the accompanying depression.  If there were, the pharmaceutical company offering such a wonder drug would be rich beyond imagination.  

The seventh state: Acceptance.  Forgetaboutit.

The real indicators of Trump Derangement Syndrome apply to his supporters more than to those who oppose him.

Stage 1 Shock and Disbelief Those who oppose him were certainly in a state of shock and disbelief but it didn't last long!
The first stage for his supporters is one of shock and disbelief that the bugger won the election in the first place!

Stage 2 Denial  Those who oppose him immediately began organizing protest marches, voter registration drives and running candidates for office all across the country. There is no time for denial.
As for his supporters they've been stuck in denial on a daily basis having to deny all his lies and mishandling of issue after issue, cozying up to Putin at Helsinki, increasing the national debt and even claiming attendance at his inauguration was larger than Obama's.

Stage 3 Anger  Those who oppose him refuse to accept this monstrosity of a president as being normal in any way. We refuse to normalize his ignorance and insulting language.  His authoritarian supporters are angry that anyone dare question his positions, decisions or statements. (see Stephen Miller's comments about his positions not being questioned)

Stage 4 Bargaining  Rather than a position of burn it to the ground, no bargaining claimed by this lame article, Democrats are running candidates across the country that represent the constituents of the various districts and winning in many cases. Just in, Fox news poll shows voters favoring Dems over R's by an average of 10 points.

Stage 5 Guilt  Those who oppose him feel no guilt for standing up for the rule of law over the personal whims of the president. We expect him to know no guilt because he is mentally unbalanced and is incapable of feeling that emotion. As he said in an interview, he's never asked God for forgiveness.

Stage 6 Depression Those who oppose him have no use for depression. We are too busy donating to Democratic candidates, manning phone banks, knocking on doors and getting out the vote to be depressed.
His supporters are increasingly depressed. His support is shrinking, poll numbers show lower and lower approval for his policies and leadership, honesty and fitness for the job.

Stage 7 Acceptance Those who oppose him have never accepted this administration as being in the best interests of the country. We accept term limits and elections and are looking forward to both. Can't wait until this administration is relegated to the dust bin of history.
His supporters accept his lying, insults, ignorance and childish fits and love him no matter what. Congratulations.

And there you have it, folks.  The truth.   Thank you for your honesty 'Deuce'.

Antifa, WWP, Black Lies Matter, IWW, Indivisible, BAMN etc .... many of these left wing groups (or supposedly "unorganized" movements, some of them) running around nowadays ...... the bottom line for them is to effect social and political change via threat of (or actual) violence.  

Further, these far left organizations and/or their events/activities are funded by other supposedly mainstream liberal persons and organizations through third and fourth parties so they don't have to get their hands dirty & be able to be directly tied to the threats and acts of violence they support.  (you won't hear any of them speaking out much against it though)

That's the big difference in these far-left violent groups and the far right ones ... there are no mainstream conservative persons or organizations funding the radical alt-right groups like the proud boys, the klan, the various nazi groups, etc.   Those organizations and movements just do not have substantial outside funding like the far-left disruptive groups.   I'd go so far as to say the vast majority of far-right groups have no outside funding at all.

You're actually less insane when you put on your Norman Bates mother-dress and pretend you're "Kim."
