President Donald Trump’s first historic election in 2016 caused an untreated condition known as Trump Mad Syndrome.
Radical leftists were unable to face the failed status quo where conservative reform-oriented businessmen and political outsiders came to Washington and held back on the failed status quo that they had been chairing for decades. Trump’s common sense American first agenda left Democrats with a massive mind, so they settled on an absurd policy of sinisterly attacking whatever the president did, no matter what.

Now, in the wake of President Trump’s monumental reelection in 2024, Trump’s mad syndrome has been mutated into something much more debilitating. Now, Democrats have decided to adopt an unpopular position on all “80-20” public policy issues that go down the Pike purely from hatred of President Trump.
Instead of working with Elon Musk and the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut wasteful spending and address unsustainable $36 trillion national debt by discovering fraud, Democrats have decided to ignore America’s ominous stance. Instead of extending Trump’s tax cuts to expand the economy and reducing inflation, Democrats support returning to higher taxes. And instead of reforming our broken education system, Democrats are succumbing to the teachers’ union to protect the tragedy of low-test scores they have created.
Politics is about addition, not subtraction. Therefore, it is not necessary to have a genius to realize that protecting the failed status quo in a country that is thirsty for reform is a recipe for disaster. But that is a strategy Democrats settled under the leadership of Senator Chuck Schumer.
Certainly, there was no more radical left leader in the US Senate than career politician Schumer. Throughout the intentional single term of former President Joe Biden, former majority leader Schumer willingly green the green light of the greenery, whatever his deep pocket socialist benefactor wanted.
From the new fraud of the deceit name reduction law green that sparked the $1.9 trillion American rescue law, to the permitting illegal alien invasions at the southern border, to the unblewed bluffing each witch hunt that sprints through the scores of unqualified activist judges, to the threat of just the blown Supreme Court.
But as the recent government shutdown drama has become completely clear, their party leadership is by no means disruptive as Trumpian socialists have left.
Minutes after Chuck Schumer decided not to shut down the government, the left had pushed hard to get him out. And while calls for Schumer to be removed from power continue today, agitators face major problems. The Democrats have no talent on their bench to take over him.
Bernie Sanders Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Jasmine Crockett’s Socialist Sideshow has decided to deploy the country to the left.
The old Astroturf rally and the rage created proves that Democrats are free falling and the country wonders how low they are. If criminal attacks and violent rhetoric against Tesla are directed at Trump, Musk, Senator Ted Cruz, and others, we seem to be trying to find it.
The chaos on the left is a great opportunity for President Trump and Republicans in Congress. As Democrats self-destruct, the GOP must continue to focus on saving the country with America’s number one common sense.
The special interest of the left has made Chuck Schumer realize that he is not allowed to help this noble effort in any way. So, Republicans must stick together at any cost and get used to getting 90% of what they want.
Democrats desperately need Republican legislators to burst with greed, so it is essential that Congress’ GOP majority be united and pass the most consequential budget adjustment bill in history in a short period of time.
Signing the settlement bill into law this spring will encourage the GOP to increase its majority in Congress. Realizing President Trump’s vision of “One Big Beautiful Bill” will promote economic growth and certainty with low taxes and regulations, enter an era of US energy control, lower prices, fund secure borders for decades to come, and rebuild the military in one go.
This is a record of positive outcomes the GOP could take for the American public in 2026 as Democrats struggle with long-term Trump Mad Syndrome games.
