        It’s not that Trumpism is a mental illness, more like you need to have a mental illness to be a Trump supporter.

          this is no different than the right calling the left mentally ill.

          both of you think you’re right, and I think the real answer is nobody is right.

            The dictators claims that all of their political opponents are terrorists is not analogous or equally valid to the terrorized political opponents calling the dictator a terrorist. If you can’t comprehend how those two groups are different — the logical separation between the conman who lies about everything and terrorizes his opponents, and every group he chooses to terrorize — then you either have the mental illness, or are most at risk to the propaganda (and future mental illness).

            Pro tip! Only a fascist opposes ANTI-FAscism.

        Hypocrisy is clutching your pearls and virtue signalling “Christian conservative values” while worshipping a “grab-em-by-the-pussy” false-profit who is the closest thing to the antichrist in living memory.

        So yeah, only one of those groups has a literal mental illness, and they are also the hypocrites.
