This is unironically correct. My mother has Trump Derangement Syndrome and she recently retired from work. She had her cable TV service turned off so she called on me to install Amazon Firestick on her TV. So I did. She had some TV and movies to enjoy but I noticed she was trying furiously to get CNN (which she had to buy) to work. She's addicted to hearing bad news about Trump. She's setting herself up to be a vegetable when Trump gets re-elected.

Ironically I was drawing from my own experiences with my own TDS mother who would otherwise applaud Trump's moves as a politician in the first 4 if he was named anyone but Trump and had she not been living off of a steady diet of CNN for the same amount of time.

She becomes easily irritable even if the conversation has nothing to do with Trump but has to do with current events (BLM, as an example). "You need your fix."

The more worrying thing to me is that now I see how Germany as a whole could have gone the way they did in the 40's - tell a big lie often enough and all of that.
