Rhetoric reversal: "Trump derangement syndrome". WTF...

Recently an editorial from a RW'er apparently upset with the SF Chronicle's "liberal" bent wrote scathing rant utilizing the term "Trump Derangement Syndrome" apparently in an attempt to make an equivalency.
It's evidence to me that RW'ers steal our ideas and memes in order to create false equivalency. But I found this one particularly hypocritical.
Certainly in recent history has there been an incoming president as undeniably, evidently more deranged than the Donald.
This is going to be absolutely wild, folks, on top of dangerous....
To watch the RW nutjobs go completely bonkers trying to justify their total asshat clown.

We're perfectly sane. We know exactly what we're talking about. The deranged ones are the violent, dangerous, criminal RWNJs trying to justify the deranged maniac Putin puppet about to occupy the White House. Talk about a weak attempt at projection.

Until we as Dems gain some type of National Media voice,we fight back with one leg missing and one hand tied behind our back and this was the Raygun Administrations main accomplishment by killing the Fairness Doctrine.

of course they're going to try to find some way to deal with the opposition Trump will face. If we hear "Trump Derangement Syndrome" we should be glad that they feel the need to recycle their old propaganda.
