Imagine Hating Trump So Much That…

Imagine hating Trump so much that you can’t be happy that murderers, drunk drivers, and child molesters are actually being taken off the streets – whether they are Americans or illegal aliens.

You’d Rather Keep Criminals on the Street

In cities like New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, and D.C., Democrats call it “justice reform” to let repeat offenders roam the streets. The rest of us call it terrorism. From their ill-conceived “defund the police” platform to their soft-on-crime prosecutors, judges, and plea deals, the Democrats have decided that crime and criminals are their friend. Heaven forbid the streets be safe. That might help Trump and other Republicans in the polls. They can’t have that.

You Invent Entire Conspiracies

Imagine hating Trump so much that you have to create an elaborate Russia collusion hoax, complete with fake dossiers, secret meetings, and late-night cable drama. You partake in years of fake “bombshell” reports, congressional hearings, and breathless speculation – with the help of your lyin’ cohorts in the media – all to discover there was no collusion. At least not with Donald Trump. There was PLENTY of collusion and corruption on the part of the Democrats. And as we have seen, their mantra of “no one is above the law” doesn’t pertain to them of course. Only with Trump around, it actually does.

You Corrupt Everything You Touch

Imagine hating Trump so much that you’d turn every arm of government – the FBI, CIA, DOJ, IRS and even the courts – into political weapons to stop him. You’re willing to gut justice and undermine law and order just to keep the Orange Menace out of power.

For a while, it felt like watching a game of “Whac-A-Mole” – only democracy was the target. Around every corner, another indictment of Trump popped up out of nowhere. “Made-up crime? Eh, good enough – file it!” With Democrats, it stopped being about justice a long time ago. It became political persecution, powered by a full-blown case of TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Election Inference – and Cheating

Imagine hating Trump so much that you’re willing to throw out election integrity at every turn. Democrats have rigged the system by rewriting election laws, weakening voter ID requirements, and allowing people to register and vote without proof of citizenship. They flooded the process with mail-in ballots, loosened signature verification, and kept ballot drop boxes wide open for abuse. Across key states, reports of ballot harvesting, duplicate registrations, and unsecured counting centers pile up every election cycle – all while Democrat-led officials fight every audit and transparency measure. It wasn’t about expanding access; it was about winning elections and expanding control – and in many cases, they have been successful.

You’d Rather Shut Down the Government Than Give Trump a Win

Imagine hating Trump so much that you’ll shut down the government just to avoid cleaning up government waste, fraud, and abuse – and to protect illegal aliens and their free health care. You’d think rooting out government overspending would be a bipartisan win – but nope, spending is never an issue for the Dems – especially when the money is spent on their precious priorities: illegal aliens, climate change, and their endless DEI pet projects.

You’d Rather Burn the Country Down Than Have a United America

From letting Black Lives Matter riots torch cities coast to coast, to turning a blind eye as anti-Israel rallies spiral into chaos, the Left’s love affair with destruction knows no bounds. And now we have anti-ICE protests – pitched as “peaceful” – which often end with smashed windows and bloodied streets. Violence has become the calling card of political outrage, and even after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, it’s clear: many would rather watch America burn than to see it united.

You Stoke Fear Until People Snap

Imagine hating Trump so much that your rhetoric helps push two people over the edge to try to assassinate him. Years of “he’s a threat to democracy” hysteria and calling him racist, sexist and xenophobic has turned into actual violence across the country – against him and also his supporters.

You Can’t Even Say “Good Job” and Cheer for Peace

Imagine hating Trump so much that it physically pains you to admit he might have done something right – whether it’s foreign peace or safer streets. That’s what Trump Derangement Syndrome does: it turns rational adults into reflexive contrarians. Because when Trump wins, they lose their narrative. And for some people, that’s worse than losing their country. Imagine hating Donald J. Trump so much that you can’t bring yourself to celebrate a peace deal in the Middle East.

Israel and Gaza finally stop shooting at each other, hostages are released, and the world exhales for a brief moment – but you’re too busy rage-posting about “orange dictators,” government shutdowns YOU are responsible for, Epstein, and “tyrannical” ICE officials to even acknowledge it. You’d rather stew in resentment than say, “Hey, that’s good news.” Yes, if Trump’s fingerprints are on it, peace is suddenly problematic.

Imagine hating Trump so much that you’d rather watch America and other countries fail than admit his policies are actually helping the country and its citizens – and the world. The Democratic Party, consumed by its own case of TDS, has crossed the line from opposition to outright anti-American.
