Former US President Donald Trump has shared a video created using artificial intelligence where he appears as a doctor presenting a “treatment plan” for Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS).
The 90-second video features various celebrities who have criticized Trump in the past as his TDS patients, including Robert De Niro and Julia Roberts. Trump introduces himself as “Dr. Trump” in the video, offering a treatment plan for those diagnosed with TDS.
One of the patients, Rosie O’Donnell, mentions she has been struggling for over a decade but has seen improvement after following Dr. Trump’s advice. Another virtual patient, Whoopi Goldberg, expresses her belief that TDS would affect her for the rest of her life.
In the video, Trump expresses uncertainty about helping some of the patients, remarking on the severity of their conditions. Robert De Niro, one of the featured patients, describes his struggles with anger and insomnia, attributing his misery to his TDS.
Julia Roberts, another celebrity in the clip, talks about feeling significantly aged due to her concerns about the current political climate. Trump concludes the video by suggesting simple remedies like avoiding fake news, praying, and enjoying a Diet Coke to alleviate anxiety.
The concept of TDS originated from psychiatrist Charles Krauthammer, who initially coined the term “Bush Derangement Syndrome” during George W. Bush’s presidency in 2003. The syndrome was later adapted during Trump’s 2016 campaign.
