While Trump Derangement Syndrome appears to be a crippling psychological disorder, it's also hilarious to observe, particularly in those afflicted with Stage 4 TDS. One such victim is former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, who's now reduced to just another run-of-the-mill MSNBC simp.
Steele, who was also a member of the totally disgraced Lincoln Project, was in rare Trump-loathing form on Saturday's episode of MNBC's "The Weekend" as he called the former president childish name after childish name. Steele used the release of Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris's medical records as an excuse to make a fool out of himself over Trump not releasing his.
Kamala Harris is releasing her health records today. Every presidential candidate has, since presidential candidates have been releasing their records.
Donald Trump has yet, in all the time that we have known of him and seen him, has refused to do so. He's had, you know, doctors sort of put together a piece of paper with a whole lot of BS on it about the man weighing 215 pounds, looking like Wally the Walrus.
Sophomoric as heck, right? Steele was just getting started.
The man is old as dirt. He's the oldest man to ever run for president. And yet, the country doesn't seem to care that he doesn't release his health records, that we have no idea what's going on in that little brain of his. Maybe he had brain worms, like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. We don't know.
What we do know is that Steele beclowned himself far more than Trump.
"How does he get away with this?" Steele asked, "And why is the country so accepting that Donald Trump can just say, you know, I'm not going to tell you about my health? But the press, and others seemingly, demand that everybody else put out theirs."
Not to engage in whataboutism, but how does Kamala Harris continue to get away with refusing to do legitimate interviews in which legitimate questions are asked and answered about her radical leftist policies and multiple pretend flip-flops? How does the lapdog liberal media get away with blatantly protecting her while fact-checking Trump (and often being wrong)? Please, Mr. Steele, your hypocrisy is showing.

Eddie Glaude Jr., the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor of African American Studies at Princeton University, was also on the show. Let's let his words speak for themselves.
First of all, it is such a wonderful time to be here on 'The Weekend,' Michael, and to see you guys. But you don't require a professor to try to make clear or make plain what's going on.
Donald Trump has been given a pass in so many ways. He represents, not America, as such, but a large slice of America. And there's this sense that the spoiled man can do whatever he wants, because there's a fear that you will activate the anger of his base.
And it seems to me that we have been tiptoeing around Donald Trump. That is, not only the press, but also Democrats, and particularly mainstream Republicans, tiptoeing around Donald Trump for fear that he would activate the ugliness of his base and endanger the country.
Remove "Donald Trump" from the above propaganda and insert "Kamala Harris," and switch "Democrats" to "Republicans," and "mainstream Republicans" to "mainstream Democrats," and there you have it.
The Bottom Line
I write articles like this one for entertainment purposes only. MSNBC has long been a joke, from Joy Reid to "Morning Joe" to Andrea Mitchell, Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace, Lawrence O'Donnell, Chris Hayes, and more. Simply my opinion, of course.
