This condition is characterized by an inability to distinguish between legitimate policy differences and signs of psychic pathology in the president's behavior. Dr. Carole Lieberman, a conservative figure, also recognizes TDS as a real psychological condition, noting that current patients are more decompensated and unable to control their emotions compared to those during Trump's first term.
