Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is apparently a meme with a contestable meaning which finally received its denotative place in the Urban Dictionary.
Perhaps because 45* is so globally vilified, TDS is currently defined unfavorably for him, at least until it gets freeped.
Even 45* used TDS in reacting to those criticizing his Helsinki treason with a TDS claim while exhibiting his insecurities about other “derangement syndromes”.
Huckabee Sanders tried to riff on TDS, only to fail.
The problem is that its origins are more unstable, hence a more indeterminate meaning dependent on context, making it an unreliable ad hominem expression.
It’s too complicated for 45* to understand his use of TDS in context (citing eponymously an association with derangement) so the possible blame for its authorship failure should go to Stephen Miller, who is still trying to get a clue about manipulating memes for a Trumpian death cult.
Like Charles Krauthammer’s authorship of Bush derangement, eventually some people will figure out that TDS might be truly self-descriptive, especially now that Trump is now an even worse POTUS than Bush. As dim as Bush was, he was never truly unhinged.
Since TDS could be about a deranged Trump, the “rigged witch hunt” could really be about rigged witches.
Arguing that Trump's opponents must instead recognize that the real problem is "Deranged Trump Self-Delusion,"
Adam Gopnik defined the "Syndrome" as President Trump's "daily spasm of narcissistic gratification and episodic vanity."
The real problem, according to Gopnik, is that President Trump is a man of "fears and fits" with an "appetite ... for announcing his authority through violence, a thing capable of an unimaginable resonance and devastation".[13]

Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS) is a neologism coined by neoconservative pundit Charles Krauthammer.
As he defined it in a 2003 column, it is:
“”...[T]he acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency — nay — the very existence of George W. Bush.[1]

BDS was originally coined by Krauthammer to attack Howard Dean, Barbra Streisand, and Bill Moyers in a pathetic attempt to equate them to full-on conspiracy theories about Dubya like Cynthia McKinney's endorsement of 9/11 "truth," and it soon became a convenient way for wingnuts to handwave away any criticism of Bush.[2]
Some reactionary idiots will waste resources trying to get TDS reversed, but like most RW humor, it rarely requires intellect.
