Summary Minnesota Republican state Sen. Justin Eichorn, who introduced a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” as a mental illness, was arrested for allegedly soliciting sex from a minor. Police say Eichorn believed he was meeting a 16-year-old girl but was actually texting undercover officers. His arrest came just a day after he and four other Republican senators introduced the controversial bill. Eichorn, who is married with four children, was booked into jail and will be transferred to the Hennepin County Adult Detention Center.

    Trump Derangement Syndrome – When you are so infatuated with Dear Leader that you will do anything for him, say anything to defend him, and try your best to be just like him.

    We’re at a point where I don’t even know what this headline is.

    Maga pol? What the fuck is a maga pol? What the hell is “trump derangement syndrome”?

    I do not understand life right now. Is this a trump ally being arrested? Or someone arrested for introducing a bill saying trump is deranged?

      I believe he is (was) a politician loyal to Trump who introduced TDS (listed as Trump Derangement Syndrome, a catch all term for people who don’t like and talk bad about Trump. As another aside, probably in an attempt to arrest them “for their own safety”). Sounds like he’s being arrested on solicitation of a minor, independent of his farcical medical jargon.

      I’ve seen pol used a few times now as well. I’m guessing it’s just short for politician?

      I find that if I don’t know what a word means, looking up the definition really helps fix that.
