Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), once thought to be nearly under control after its seven-year reign of terror, is back with a vengeance.  (TDS is not to be confused with DDS, DeSantis Derangement Syndrome, a lesser but rapidly growing malady.)  

TDS can cause erratic behavior, illogical thoughts, and an inability to process information rationally.  Some people also experience bouts of ranting, foaming at the mouth, a desire to watch The View, and tendencies toward violence.  Others cry uncontrollably and scream toward the sky.

Unfortunately, new TDS variants are surging, and no efficacious vaccine has yet been developed.  Therefore, for the good of the collective society, I am calling for a nationwide lockdown of those who exhibit these symptoms.  Moreover, new social distancing laws should be enacted, which would mandate that those afflicted stay a minimum of 30 feet away from others.  Mask mandates for those in the throes of TDS might also be considered but, upon reflection, would be found to be as needless as they are ineffective, since nearly all TDS-positive people voluntarily wear them already — many even while alone in the shower.

Once an effective TDS vaccine is finally developed, vaccine mandates for the NeverTrumps should be put in place.  Those who refuse to do the right thing and get vaccinated — and fully boosted when follow-up shots are available — should be summarily arrested, placed in solitary confinement, and forced to watch My Pillow ads for 24 consecutive hours.  Of course, in order to save our democracy, their voting privileges must be revoked as well.

Like many diseases and societal ills, TDS and DDS both disproportionately affect the LGBT community and other marginalized groups, such as those in the media, academia, and "entertainment," as well as the bat-s--- crazy.  Not to be redundant.
