US President Donald Trump shared a bizarre AI-generated video on his Truth Social platform, depicting himself as a doctor diagnosing critics with “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS). The term ‘TDS’ is often used to describe opposition to him.
The 90-second clip shows a deepfake version of Trump in a white lab coat offering a supposed “treatment plan” while mocking detractors.
The video features manipulated appearances of prominent critics, including Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie O’Donnell, Robert De Niro, Julia Roberts, Edward Norton and John Leguizamo, portraying them as endorsing the so-called cure.

The clip then features fictional patients describing how the condition affected their lives. They seemed to suggest that they experienced improvement after following Trump’s advice.
In another segment, the AI-generated Trump character says, “I really wasn’t sure I could help some of these people. They were so far gone.”
