How to treat those with Trumpocalypse derangement syndrome

Watch the way that John Nichols compassionately responds to a woman who is obviously deranged. This took place at a recent book signing event at Politics & Prose.

There is value in listening to the views of others with compassion and respect. Democrats can't afford to be deaf and blind to those who are similarly deranged.

rather than pay attention to Melorama'a heels or the Orange Toxin's latest outragrous behavior - watch Chao and De Vos, etc. -they are doing the real bad stuff and nobody's paying attention.

How can you reply to someone not living in any world known to you, me or anyone else? Her entire world is constructed in her feeble mind.

I admire John's attempt to be diplomatic, but everything she said was incoherent. She could have recited the statistics of the 1949 Brooklyn Dodgers and been at least factual, though no less non sequitur.
