#3157: “Trump Derangement Syndrome” [TDS], Explained [Part 2 of 3]

In part two of this series on Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), I break down where it comes from and why it happens. The key idea is cognitive dissonance—when beliefs clash with reality, how do you respond? Most people avoid challenging their beliefs because their ego is tied to being “right.” Highly educated individuals are especially vulnerable to this because they often believe their credentials make them immune to being wrong. Stay open-minded and willing to question what you think you know.

Show Notes:

[02:26]#5 What do we do in the moment when our beliefs clash with reality?

[06:17]#6 Challenge your beliefs. 

[20:47]#7 Here’s the problem: Most people aren’t critical thinkers.
