An interesting, honest if somewhat lengthy read.
TDS sufferers will probably not like it, but that's okay:
America has a sickness, and it’s not just a horrendously unhealthy food supply. It’s deeper, darker, and more sinister. It goes by three letters: TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome.
What is TDS? It is a condition that turns ordinary people into hateful monsters whenever President Trump is mentioned. It drives politicians, journalists, professors, and late-night comedians to hate rather than admit that President Trump is good for America. It divides families, ruins friendships, and convinces people that their fellow Americans are enemies rather than good-natured citizens.
I’ve known about TDS since before it had a name. Back in 2016, I was one of the first people “canceled” for supporting President Trump. I donated $500 and sent a few tweets in support. Within hours, Democrat activists attacked me, my company, and my employees. Tens of thousands of hateful emails flooded in. A small army threatened to destroy my business, and I was viciously defamed. All over $500. That’s TDS.
Since then, I’ve been an astute observer of the phenomenon. I watched hate mobs rage on what was once called Twitter for years at anyone who supported President Trump. The news, even on public airwaves, became anti-Trump hate fests where they spread hoax after hoax that divided our country. Meanwhile Trump supporters were banned, en masse, from social media, and President Trump was banned too. That’s TDS.
Fast forward to the 2024 election, when I put a 100-foot-wide Vote For Trump sign on top of my tallest building in Amsterdam, New York. My lawyers warned me against doing it. “Democrats are vicious,” they told me. They were right. I woke up to a restraining order threatening me with jail. I fought back, won in court, and the sign still stands. But the hate mobs didn’t stop. The mere sight of three words triggered people into madness. Members of my own community demanded I leave and move my business. That’s TDS.

If you (or a loved one) spends a lot of time thinking about Trump, if you find yourself infusing your hatred of him into topics that have little or nothing to do with him, you (or a loved one) may be suffering from TDS,
And you can't be hating Trump without thinking about him. In other words, he's in your head.
Which is perhaps just the way he likes it.
