Summary
Five Republican Minnesota state senators plan to introduce a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS) as a mental illness, defining it as “acute paranoia” about Trump’s presidency.
The bill argues TDS causes hysteria, verbal hostility, and aggression toward Trump supporters.
Critics argue this represents a dangerous politicization of mental health diagnoses that could suppress political expression.
The bill will be read Monday before the Minnesota Senate Health and Human Services Committee, where Democrats hold a narrow majority.
Since when do senators diagnose shit?
I mean, insurance companies refuse treatments for patients, flying in the face of what a doctor recommends, and I’m fairly certain there isn’t a lot of medical reasoning behind their decisions. If insurance companies can practice medicine without a license, then senators are equally unqualified.
