I suggest removing the words "a psychiatrist" in the Origin of term section.

Krauthammer was indeed a psychiatrist but is already presented here as a political columnist, and that is the context in which he coined the term Bush Derangement Syndrome : in his Washington Post opinion article, not in a process of scientific study.

Adding "psychiatrist" to the already sufficient "political columnist and commentator" gives the wrong idea in this context.

As a result this part easily reads as BDS being a diagnosis or the result of research lead by this psychiatrist when it was actually said in a light-hearted political article about the most extreme anti-Bush people, his field of psychiatry being an angle for the joke. Feel free to check the source to confirm : [https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/2003/12/05/the-delusional-dean/cbc80426-08ee-40fd-97e5-19da55fdc821/]https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/2003/12/05/the-delusional-dean/cbc80426-08ee-40fd-97e5-19da55fdc821/

So long story short, mentioning him also being a psychiatrist in this context is at best misleading, that word should be removed.

If there's still no controversy about this and no change, I guess I'll make an official edit request after some time has passed. [[User:Tetrarque|Tetrarque]] ([[User talk:Tetrarque|talk]]) 00:20, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

Definition

The current definition of mere "impaired judgment" is too broad, and would include the cognitive biases that afflict us all. TDS is distinguished by fixation, e.g. the frequent injection of Trump into discussion of unrelated topics.

Voting to add (pejorative term) on title of this page

This is not real syndrome, because when someone view name of this page on some URL or on some browser to know immediately that that is just pejorative term used by Donald Trump. Duosdebs01 (talk) 12:02, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
