Trump Addiction Syndrome (TAS) Sufferers: Why And How Did They Lose Reason And Decency?

THE DEFINITION OF ADDICTION:

• An uncontrollable urge and the inability to stop engaging in behaviors and ways of thinking despite persistent, factually harmful outcomes.

There are actions Trump has taken and statements he has made that are illegal, immoral, racist, dangerous, self-serving, and damaging to people and countries all over the world. That claim is visible, measurable, and supported by millions of people from all political parties, demographics, cultures, and countries. However, the right- wing cleverly labeled the sane, patriotic people of America and the world who see Trump for the maniacal, criminal autocrat that he is as Trump Derangement Syndrome ( TDS) sufferers, when it is they who are Trump Addiction Syndrome ( TAS) sufferers.

Even when Trump supporters are confronted with possible or actual negative outcomes for themselves or their families because of their allegiance to Trump, they continue to support his illegal, un- American actions. Delusions and hyper-loyalty keep them addictively attached to him. Even these possible unpreferred results won’t deter them, which proves their addiction:

● It is probable that there is a database identifying MAGA members

● It is probable that MAGA will be registered as a domestic terrorist group by the next president.

● Laws or future executive orders are being discussed that would order Trump supporters to repay the Treasury for the illegal overreach spending Trump did during his presidency

● Banning any reference to the Bible or Jesus in public schools may occur as retribution towards Trump supporters who supported the banning of books on slavery, the Holocaust, and LGBTQ issues.

● Europe is considering not letting registered MAGA/ Trump supporters into their countries due to security concerns

● MAGA supporters may be exempt from receiving any benefits that resulted from President Joe Biden’s policies

● They will not be reimbursed by Trump ( or exempted from) cost increases to their taxes, healthcare, food, housing, or gas increases.

Despite being unable to articulate how tax cuts for the rich, or overspending on the ballroom and other cheesy, costly renovations, or filing baseless retribution lawsuits, or the Iran War, or murderous ICE raids against minority Americans and immigrants, help them personally, Trump supporters are ready to go down in flames with him. 

THAT ISN’T ANYTHING TO BE PROUD OF, BUT RATHER AN EMBARRASSING, SAD LEGACY OF ADDICTION.
