Is there a plural for Apocalypse? You’d think there should be with all the doom and gloom prophesied by Democrats, Liberals, Globalists, Celebrity Loons and various “Never Trumpers” who identify as “the Resistance.” Every time President Trump says or does anything original, the Resistance explodes with histrionic outbursts of nonsensical terror. “People will die!!” “It’s the end of the world!!” “Prepare for Armageddon!!”

Histrionic Personality Disorder is a real thing, characterized by a long-standing pattern of attention seeking behavior and extreme emotionality. Someone with histrionic personality disorder wants to be at the center of attention in any group of people, and they feel uncomfortable when they are not.

This is a perfect description of the radical left and others who are so enraged that Hillary Clinton (or a more “establishment approved” candidate) lost the election, thus forcing them all out of the political spotlight, that they can no longer distinguish reality from their own warped anti-Trump fantasies. Added to this is the new mental disorder labelled “Trump Derangement Syndrome” characterized by a hatred of President Trump so intense that it impairs people’s judgment. To paraphrase the late Charles Krauthammer, who was never a supporter of President Trump, it’s the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency – nay – the very existence of Donald J. Trump. It is a Trump-induced “general hysteria” among the “chattering classes” – the journalists, social justice warriors, political operatives and pompous celebrities who see themselves as the arbiters of conventional wisdom – these people don’t actually amount to much but they love to hear themselves talk.

Here is a short list of times since the Presidential election when we were told by “the Resistance,” that we should prepare ourselves for imminent doom.
