There is slowly and thoughtfully a building of case studies to determine if TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) should be officially included the mental heath definitions.

Who is collecting these case studies that you mention, and how can we read them, or about them?

There was no mention of these in Pattakos' article that you linked us to, and I haven't seen anything like a "study" referenced by Krauthammer, nor Zakaria, either in their articles linked to by Pattakos, or elsewhere.  Please, share.

So what is the corresponding right-wing debilitating condition, BDS? R57 has exemplified BDS many times here in his inchoate outbursts. Maybe by using fact-based objective real world data in our decision making processes we can avoid these mind traps? Freedom of will is great, but if based on erroneous data it leads nowhere useful. GIGO

"Against this backdrop, one antidote to the debilitating effects of (TDS/BDS) requires the reclaiming of the space between stimulus and response, both as a way to change ourselves and as a proactive strategy for influencing situations or events that are yet to come, such as the 2024 election. Once again, this recommendation depends upon both freedom of will—“to choose one’s way”—and personal responsibility—to commit to meaningful values and goals that only you can actualize and fulfill."

Those V7 guzzies are nice. I would have got one but it’s in the same category as the Interceptor to me. It would be more of the same.

Those are reasons to try to murder someone ? Just how fucking sick are you !!!!!!!

Sickness? Maybe so:
There is slowly and thoughtfully a building of case studies to determine if TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) should be officially included the mental heath definitions.
Here is a scholarly (non-political) article:
I suggest anyone who will really read it should record their blood pressure before and after. Might be somewhat diagnostic.

SNIPPET:"... Signs of TDS can be observed along a continuum of reactions, ranging from verbal expressions of intense hostility toward President Trump to overt acts of aggression and even violence against anyone supporting or anything symbolizing him. The recent assassination attempt on Trump’s life provides compelling evidence of the volatility and potential dangers of TDS if left unchecked."

Those Ruckii Hondacia really hold their price! Even used they routinely sell for $2K - $3K. Makes a guy suspect that the owners really like'em.  Now where's that sidehack?

Are you really that stupid or is this all just even more tiresome performative outrage?  You act a lot like 45, declaring victory when the whim strikes, ignoring inconvenient information, rambling on on unrelated topics, unable to maintain a coherent narrative. Apparently the VP slot should have gone to you, not J.D. Vance. You are much more sympatico than J.D., you have sculpted your persona to match The Mity Wuns. Too bad Laura Loomer will likely push you both out of the nest; mucho sympatico, a mere 31, and "so round, so firm, so fully packed". A much better travel companion, knows all the right catechisms to soothe 45's mity ego.

"Those are reasons to try to murder someone?"
Remember any of these events? What do you think were the initiating reasons? Were they good reasons? WTFU or at least take your meds.

You apparently don't listen so well to "The Mity Wun". Biden didn't indulge in election denial or instigate an insurrection. Biden didn't stack the Supreme Court and blow up RvW to placate the Christian Nationalists. Biden isn't regurgitating daily kak about all the migrants being from prisons and insane asylums. Or windmills causing cancer. Or a thousand other things. Maybe 45 needs to notch it back to reality and drop the Qanon. As far as being a dictator or suspending the Constitution, that's low hanging fruit. The real issue here is you rewriting history inside your head and assuming everyone else has to comply. The extemporaneous golf excursion was an avoidable stress test of the SS. Any sane person that has been recently shot at would likely avoid open areas adjacent to business/residential areas. Security takes time & prep. Deliberately putting those around you in harms way is aberrant behavior.

Trump’s vow to only be a dictator on ‘day one’ follows growing worry over his authoritarian rhetoric

Former President Donald Trump faced rebuke Sunday from officials in both parties after calling for the “termination” of parts of the Constitution over his lie that the 2020 election was stolen.

Trump rebuked for call to suspend Constitution over election
https://apnews.com/article/social-media-donald-trump-8e6e2f0a092135428c82c0cfa6598444
As Donald Trump faces growing scrutiny over his increasingly authoritarian and violent rhetoric, Fox News host Sean Hannity gave his longtime friend a chance to assure the American people that he wouldn’t abuse power or seek retribution if he wins a second term.
But instead of offering a perfunctory answer brushing off the warnings, Trump stoked the fire.
“Except for day one,” the GOP front-runner said Tuesday night before a live audience in Davenport, Iowa. “I want to close the border, and I want to drill, drill, drill.”
And in case anyone missed it, he reenacted the exchange.
“We love this guy,” Trump said of Hannity. “He says, ‘You’re not going to be a dictator, are you?’ I said: ‘No, no, no, other than day one. We’re closing the border, and we’re drilling, drilling, drilling. After that, I’m not a dictator.’”

Those are reasons to try to murder someone ? Just how fucking sick are you !!!!!!!

This may be closer to a "Believe it or not" entry? 

Dozens of Hezbollah members reportedly injured by exploding pagers
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cd7xnelvpepo
Dozens of members of Lebanon's Hezbollah movement have reportedly been injured after handheld pagers they use to communicate exploded.
Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency said the incident took place in the southern suburbs of Beirut, which is a stronghold of the Iran-backed armed group, and several other regions.
A Reuters journalist reported seeing 10 Hezbollah members bleeding from wounds in southern Beirut.
A Hezbollah official meanwhile told the news agency that the incident constituted the "biggest security breach yet".
