Topic: New Tds

A donor known as "Nobody of New Jersey" (Jersey James Scott) described using the media deconstruction skills learned from the show to challenge the "Trump Derangement Syndrome" (TDS) narratives of his friends. He committed to continuing the quarterly Central New Jersey meetups to provide a space for sane conversation and everyday news discussion.

"New TDS" is defined as the internal conservative backlash and skepticism toward Donald Trump’s recent cabinet picks. Critics on platforms like Conservative Treehouse and Blue Sky have labeled appointees such as Pam Bondi and Scott Besant as "Rhinos" or "Deep State" plants. The discussion posits that controversial picks like Matt Gaetz may have served as "straw man" candidates to pave the way for more established figures like Bondi.
