But now that you mention it, yes, it does seem odd that so many still suffer from ODS even long after Obama is gone.

And ODS was 'stolen' from BDS.

BDS (Bush Derangement Syndrome) is the original 'derangement syndrome'.

The term Bush Derangement Syndrome was coined as a political term by the late psychiatrist long ago turned political commentator Dr. Charles Krauthammer.

There were also the Clinton Crazies which is the same thing, it's just that they hadn't come up with the "derangement syndrome" term yet.

Or at least I thought I did.

I just Googled it and discovered it has been in the Urban Dictionary since 2012:

Here's an article on it in The Economist from all the way back in 2009:

So the Trump fans who think they are being clever by accusing Trump haters as having TDS are not being clever. They're actually copycats.

BDS was mild compared to ODS...point Team Blue.

But TDS is beyond anything anyone could have imagined.

I remember Obama derangement. It didn't manafest itself quite as openly though. Thanks MSM.
