Trump Derangement Syndrome: The Real Insurrection
A businessman from New York who had never held office, never served in government, never been part of the machine, ran for president in 2016.
The Clinton campaign wanted him to.
An internal DNC memo from April 2015 called it the "Pied Piper" strategy: elevate Trump, Cruz, Carson.
"Tell the press to take them seriously." They wanted him because they thought he'd be the easiest to destroy.
63 million Americans didn't get the memo. They voted for the guy who wasn't a politician. Wasn't groomed by donors. Wasn't part of the DC corruption machine.
306 electoral votes. 30 states.
And the people who rigged the game to get the opponent they wanted couldn't accept the result when they lost to him.
Five Senate Democrats drafted impeachment frameworks in December 2016. Six weeks before inauguration. Before he signed anything. They had the conclusion before he took the oath. They just needed the evidence.
Not on January 6th. Starting January 20th, 2017.
Everyone wants to talk about insurrection. Nobody wants to talk about the one that ran for four years.
They manufactured the evidence.
The Steele Dossier.
Funded by the Clinton campaign. Laundered through a law firm, an opposition research shop, a former British spy, and a Russian national named Igor Danchenko who told the FBI his information was "rumor and speculation."
FBI lead investigator Peter Strzok wrote internally they were "unaware of ANY Trump advisors engaging in conversations with Russian intelligence officials."
Same guy who texted a colleague about Trump winning: "No. No he won't. We'll stop it."
Offered Steele a million dollars to verify a single claim. He couldn't.
Durham concluded the FBI could not corroborate a single substantive allegation.
Mueller: three years, $30 million, no collusion.
Intelligence reports later assessed that key parts of Steele's material were themselves RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION.
The people screaming about Russian interference spent three years amplifying Russian disinformation to destroy a sitting president.
They used the fake evidence to spy on Americans.
The FBI took that unverified dossier funded by one campaign and used it to get FISA surveillance warrants on Carter Page, a member of the opposing campaign.
Secret court. Secret warrant. Opposition research treated as intelligence.
The Inspector General found 17 significant errors and omissions in the warrant applications.
Danchenko, the primary source, had been flagged by the FBI's own counterintelligence division. Subject of a full investigation into his Russian intelligence contacts.
The FBI's response: put him on their payroll from 2017 to 2020.
While the country went to war with itself over a story he made up.
The press didn't just cover the lie. They built it. And they fanned the flames of insurrection.
FBI Director Comey personally briefed Trump on the dossier. The meeting was immediately leaked to BuzzFeed, who published it in full.
The New York Times published: "Trump Campaign Aides Had Repeated Contacts With Russian Intelligence."
The FBI's own Strzok had already flagged the claim internally as inaccurate. The headline stood. The coverage accelerated.
The Washington Post and New York Times won Pulitzer Prizes for their Russia coverage. For reporting built on a dossier the FBI couldn't verify.
No retractions. No corrections. No Pulitzers returned.
The Russia coverage built the machine. They used it on everything.
They told you he called neo-Nazis "very fine people."
He didn't.
The full quote, on camera: "I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists because they should be condemned totally."
Snopes confirmed it in 2024. Didn't matter. Biden launched his entire 2020 campaign on the lie.
The BBC spliced two clips from his January 6th speech, filmed 50 minutes apart, into one quote.
Cut "peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard." Replaced it with "fight like hell." Made it sound like a direct call for violence.
Their director-general resigned. Their head of news resigned. Days before the 2024 election.
The press built the permission. Congress used it.
They tried to remove him before, during, and after.
Democrat Al Green introduced impeachment articles in 2017. Before Mueller concluded anything.
Then said it on camera: "I'm concerned that if we don't impeach this president, he will get re-elected."
Rashida Tlaib, day one in Congress: "We're going to impeach the motherf***er."
First impeachment: a phone call with Ukraine. Purely partisan. 230 to 197. Zero Republicans.
Second impeachment: seven days. No committee hearings. No formal investigation. Fastest impeachment in American history. Against a president who had already lost and was leaving office in a week.
Jerry Nadler, 1998, arguing against Clinton's impeachment: "Impeachment is an undoing of a national election."
Twenty years later the same man led the charge to impeach Trump. Same seat. Opposite position. Only thing that changed was the name on the door.
The data proves none of it was about principle.
Oxford studied four administrations. Bush. Obama. Trump. Biden. Support for violating democratic norms tracked one variable. Not values. Not ideology. The jersey.
Democracy Fund: 24% of Americans changed their position on congressional oversight between 2019 and 2022. Of those who flipped, 83% moved in whichever direction served their party.
They elevated him because they thought he'd lose. He won because 63 million people were tired of being managed.
Fabricated evidence. Secret surveillance. A weaponized press. Two impeachments. All dressed up as patriotism.
They couldn't buy him. So they tried to bury him.
When that didn't work they tried to remove him.
When that didn't work they doctored the footage.
Question an election and you're a threat to democracy.
Fabricate evidence to overturn one and you're defending it.
That's the deal they sold you. And half the country bought it without reading the receipts.
TDS was never a syndrome.
It was a permission structure. It told you the threat was so big the rules didn't apply anymore. And you believed it.
The rules always apply. That's the whole point of having them.
Stop being an NPC.
I hope you understand what's at stake.
