   "How many illegal immigrants being deported by the new administration would   
   you find objectionable? Mr. Melnick? I'll ask you, a million?"   
      
   "I think a million would be a disaster."   
      
   "2 million?"   
      
   I think that is enough that would have severe negative ramifications for the   
   United States."   
      
   "I'm not reading what Trump intends to DO. I'm reading exactly what President   
   Barack Obama DID. So you said President Obama was immoral and inappropriate to   
   deport those million people... is that what I heard you say?"   
      
   "There were many people that were under his administration that should not   
   have been."   
      
   "Look, I would really appreciate it if you would go out on social media and   
   say that President Obama did a horrible disservice to those people he   
   deported, and he's as wrong-minded as every other Republican who said we've   
   got to secure the border and deport people, because you can't have one being   
   OK and the other one not being OK.

   "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition   
      
   All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.   
      
   "Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has   
   been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the   
   point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."   
      
   Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the   
   Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or   
   stages:   
      
   "In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The   
   president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were   
   all it took to change the world."   
      
   "The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's   
   vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of   
   hyperbole."   
      
   "As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from   
   reality."   
      
   The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk   
   opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump   
   announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would   
   suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.   
   There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be   
   received positively by TDSers.   
      
   The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early   
   2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-   
   night comics and nothing more.   
      
   Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first   
   coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.   
   The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in   
   otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -   
   the very existence of George W. Bush."
