Constantly amazed how many Americans just seem to be _fine_ with their president being, very obviously, a crazy person. Like, this is a truly bizarre thing to say. Is he claiming _responsibility_?

Every Accusation is a Confession. He's always projecting.

Imagine the justified backlash if Biden had described the 2024 attempted assassinations of Trump as caused by "Biden derangement syndrome", or if anyone had described the assassination of Charlie Kirk as caused by "censorship derangement syndrome".

When a politically powerful figure says irresponsible and irrational things so openly without a hint of remorse, how much trust can I place in the seemingly responsible ideas that the figure might say on better days? I think Gell-Mann amnesia [1] applies to listeners of influential figures as much as it applies to readers/listeners of media organizations, if not more so.

Trump blaming Rob Reiner's murder on 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' is absurd. TDS is what conservatives accuse liberals of - and Reiner was a liberal. If politics were involved, it’d be someone who loves Trump. Maybe Trump doesn’t even know what TDS means?

    I think Trump is arguing that Reiner by criticizing Trump, in spite of his "greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us" pissed off people enough to get killed. Nuts.

Everything must always be about Trump. Always.

Except the bad things. That's because of Biden.
