What does Trump Derangement Syndrome look like? Well, the American people have been served up a prime example in the days following the anti-Semitic murderous attack on the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh last Saturday. Almost immediately, much of the mainstream media was either tacitly or blatantly blaming President Donald Trump for motivating the anti-Semitic murderer. Never mind the fact that the murderer hated Trump. But when it comes to Trump Derangement, cogent facts that demonstrate the absolute absurdity of a claim don’t matter. The derangement rage must be stoked.
In that light, when Trump visited Tree of Life to offer his condolences to the families and friends of the victims of this heinous crime, upwards of 1,000 anti-Trump protesters descended, determined to politicize the event. One organizer declared, “President Trump’s words, actions, and polices have espoused and emboldened the type of violence and hatred our community so tragically endured with the massacre of 11 Jews in their place of worship. The president’s visit on Tuesday, much like his ideas and his presidency, is unwelcome in our city and our country.”

The left is responsible for the racial divide and rises in anti-semitism. The left has a long history of murdering religious people and minorities in the world.
Nah. This is just plain wrong.
Trump getting elected emboldened lots of unsavory sort of folks, because their idea of "make America great again" was to "Make America White and Protestant Again". Since his MAGA slogan in non-descriptive nor is it specific at all, AND the fact the people who may have been once "deplorable" were then allowed to be socially o.k., it has created the perfect storm.
They have become larger in numbers, more visible and more vocal.
They would whisper and hide before, because they knew what they were doing was shameful, but after the "blood and soil" march that Trump did NOT condemn... he rather said there was fault on "all sides"... well that was a pass for these folks to do what they wanted.
Trump has not done this intentionally, I do not think it is part of his agenda, but for certain, his presidency has emboldened these folks. Unfortunately he bears a certain responsibility for this.
