Fun fact: Trump Derangement Syndrome was actually coined by a conservative to apply to other conservatives.

It was repurposed from Obama Derangement Syndrome, which was also coined by a conservative to apply to other conservatives.

ODS was also repurposed from Bush Derangement Syndrome, which didn't have the partisan connotations the latter two did/do.
