Well, I'm glad I got THIS off my chest [View all]

I have a YouTube that I only use for harassing #rump cultist, and I've been using it a lot this past week. I've received surprisingly few replies, and most of them have just been accusations of "TDS." I finally had enough of that and posted the following reply to the last one:

If you DO NOT have what trump cultists call TDS, that means you refuse to recognize or just don't care that he is an obnoxiously self-obsessed and vindictive, malignant narcissist; the most prolific and BLATANT pathological liar American politics has ever seen; a racist and xenophobic bigot; a sociopath who has lied and cheated his way through every aspect of his life, including cheating his way into college and out of the draft, cheating contractors and cheating on taxes and loan application in his businesses, creating a fake university and a fake charity, cheating on all three of his wives, and he even cheats at golf. He's a misogynist and an unregistered sex offender; a twice-impeached and 36-count convicted felon who ran out the clock on many more certain convictions. He's a seditionist who tried to overturn his ego-crushing election loss with fake electors and a lie-driven riot, and who pardoned over 1500 seditionists who attacked the Capitol, including ones who injured 140 policemen and wanted to hang Pence for not caving into a lawless rejection of the valid electors. And most importantly, he's a wannabe fascist dictator who ignores the Constitution and has already usurped significant Constitutional powers from a complacent Republican Congress, including charging tariffs, deciding how tax money is spent, killing or decimating departments and programs, and starting a war. He created the most unqualified cabinet in history, and we have since found that many of them are indeed dangerously incompetent — especially his Secretary of War Crimes and Secretary of Weaponized Justice — and he embarrasses them, himself and our country by having meetings where he goes around the room demanding praise. His narcissism is a serious weakness that makes him easy to manipulate by people like Putin and anyone who wants favors like pardons, and it also causes him to take credit for things he had nothing to do with while NEVER taking responsibility for ANYTHING. He destroyed an historic part of OUR presidential mansion to create a vanity royal ballroom, and wants that and a dozen other things around Washington named after himself. He won 2024 by a thin margin, but he thinks he is only president of Republicans, while he calls Democrats "garbage" for not supporting him. He insults journalists for asking questions that expose his failures and mendacity while calling facts "fake news" and lies "alternative facts." He and his family openly commit "pay-to-play" that he spent 6 years unsuccessfully trying to pin on the Bidens, and they are now $1.4 billion richer than they were in January. And now, since his re-election, he's showing unmistakable signs of a mental illness called power psychosis, which is characterized by delusions of grandeur, delusions of infallibility, delusions of never being held accountable, delusions of unchecked power, and paranoid delusions. He is an awful president because he is an awful human being. If you DO NOT have this TDS, what the hell is wrong with YOU!? If you've lost friends and alienated family members because of your support for Trump, it's because they're wondering that same thing, and accusing THEM of derangement just makes it worse.


After all that typing, from now on, I'm going to repost that on every "TDS" reply I get. I know I only hit the highlights, but it was getting too long.
