According to Zander only the Dems are guilty of Trump Derangement Syndrome because they are calling him out for not correcting the questioner who called Obama a Muslim.
But obviously TDS is not a partisan affliction.
Cruz, Santorum refuse to criticize Trump over supporter - CNNPolitics.com
Christie, Graham and Bush come to Obama's defense
Christie took a different tack early Friday morning when he called out Trump.
"If somebody at one of my town hall meetings said that, I would correct them and I would say, 'The President's a Christian and he was born in this country. Those two things are self-evident,'" the New Jersey governor told NBC's "Today" show on Friday. "I'll tell you what I would do, and I wouldn't have permitted that if someone brought that up at a town hall meeting of mine; I would have said, 'No, listen. Before we answer, let's clear some things up for the rest of the audience.' And I think you have an obligation as a leader to do that."
Christie added: "Donald Trump has to decide how serious a candidate he wants to be and how he handles different problems like this are going to determine that in the eyes of the American people. I'm not going to lecture him about what to do."
Lindsey Graham, speaking with MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Friday, said Trump should have stood up to the questioner.
"I've had this happen to me in Iowa, where a guy used the 'N-word' and it was very derogatory towards President Obama and Muslims. And I said, 'I am not seeking your vote,'" Graham said. "President Obama, I don't question his faith. I don't question his patriotism. I don't question his origin of birth. And when these things happen, you are not responsible for what the guy said, but you are responsible for how you respond."
And Jeb Bush, speaking in Michigan Friday night, also said he believed Obama was a Christian and an American.
"By the way, he's an American, he's a Christian. His problem isn't that he was born here or what his religion is, his problem is that he tears down anyone that disagrees with him," Bush said.
After his speech, Bush was asked three times by a CNN reporter if he believes Trump should apologize for his comments.
"I spoke to that. I spoke to that," Bush said.
Ben Carson Gives Trump a Pass For Response to Anti-Muslim Question
At a New Hampshire town hall Thursday night, a questioner denounced Muslims as a "problem" in the U.S., said Obama is a member of the religion and was not born in the U.S., and asked "when can we get rid of them?" Trump said only, "We are going to be looking at that and plenty of other things," and a spokeswoman was forced to issue three different statements clarifying his response.
Asked whether Trump should've corrected the questioner, Carson said: "I suspect that if he gets that question again, that's exactly what he'll do." He also said he'd have corrected a question like that if asked.
So we have Bush-3rd, Carson, Graham and Christie all suffering from TDS too.
Is it possible that TDS in non-partisan because T-Rump is an entertainer and not a serious candidate?
No it's because idiots ACCEPTED Obama's gross hyperbolic statements AS President so the bar has been set!
I have NO problem with Trump's response much less any other hyperbolic statement he makes as it is a standard that was set by OBAMA with the following:
These networks are so stupid!
Here these networks are all bent out of shape as well as stupid GOP contenders blasting Trump for not responding to this statement:
"We have a problem in this country. It's called Muslims," an unidentified man who spoke at a question-and-answer town hall event in Rochester, New Hampshire asked the mogul at a rally Thursday night. "You know our current president is one. You know he's not even an American."
Donald Trump doesn't challenge anti-Muslim questioner - CNNPolitics.com
AND so NBC has the absolute stupidity to bring up a quote from Trump's book:
Optimistic exaggeration, which Trump called "truthful hyperbole" in "The Art of the Deal," is a hallmark of the cutthroat New York real estate world where many developers, accustomed to ramming their way into deals, puff up their portfolios.
"A little hyperbole never hurts," he wrote. "People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular ... It's an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion."

So NOW NBC,et.al. are concerned about HYPERBOLE?????
WHERE IN THE HELL were they when THESE HYPERBOLIC STATEMENTS WERE MADE BY OBAMA????
“I don’t have to explain to you that nearly 46 million Americans don’t have health insurance coverage today. In the wealthiest nation on Earth, 46 million of our fellow citizens have no coverage.”
A F...KING HYPERBOLIC statement and YES A LIE as Obama KNEW that of the 46 million, 10 million were not legal citizens!!!!
PROOF THAT WAS A LIE??
1) 10 million Obama counted were not Americans... not citizens per the Census:
Proof: Income, Poverty and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2009 - Income & Wealth - Newsroom - U.S. Census Bureau
2) Obama failed to get 14 million people eligible for Medicaid enrolled. That's all that is needed. That leaves 22 million.

3) 18 million under 34 don't NEED insurance. Can afford employers' plans as they make over $50k. That leaves 4 million.
CRISIS OF THE UNINSURED: 2009
THERE NEVER WERE 46 million but less then 4 million YET NBC,CBS,ABC NEVER EVER called Obama on these lies!
AFTER ACA was passed Obama agreed 10 million of the 46 million were not legal!!!
HE KNEW that BEFORE BUT LIED!!!
Here is another F...king HYPERBOLIC statement used to get Obamacare passed!!!
Gross Exaggeration: Obama said "Up to half of all Americans have a pre-existing condition,"
Another grossly wrong outright lie!
This gave the impression 155 million Americans were not able to get insurance!
1) Facts: half of 310 million Americans is 155 million.
85% of Americans have coverage... that means 266 million so where in the hell did Obama come up with "half"?
2) Facts: a total of LESS THEN 1.5 million Americans who were denied health insurance or paid higher premiums due to pre-existing conditions.
Obama's Pre-existing Conditions Whopper
But did this stop Obama from spreading the terrible terrible LIE???
The total impression given by this LIE was 155 million people couldn't get insurance! 30 second sound bite proof of that is people equated "pre-existing conditions" as preventing them from getting insurance!
DID that hyperbolic statement HURT Obama?? HELL NO!!!
I would be happy to continue pointing out HOW Obama's HYPERBOLIC statements were NEVER questioned by the MSM!
NOT one of these idiots EVER EVER asked Obama... How often does this happen in the military that YOU, Obama says happens all the time"?
then Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"
HOW OfTEN Obama, did our troops air raid villages killing civilians???? Did this happen all the time everywhere in Iraq?
ALSO you dip shit President... HOW MANY americans died because the enemy loved to repeat YOUR statement as well as
your SOS John Kerry's statement calling our troops "terrorists" were used to recruit more killers of Americans?
NO I have absolutely NO problem with Trump's hyperbolic statements because LOOK where the above statements got Obama????
LOL You are nuts.....rant, rant, rant....yada, yada, yada and not one sensible statement.
So in spite of Obama telling you what a fool you are i.e. from his book...
"Dreams from My Father"...published July 18,1995!
"It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned.
People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves.
They were more than satisfied. They were revealed.
Such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time."
And his further LYING about 46 million uninsured Americans, and HIS lying about 155 million uninsured Americans, and his LYING about
our military air-raiding villages and killing civilians ALL the time everywhere in the world... and ultimately his hiring a guy who he obviously agrees with
his statement that it took the "stupidity of the American Voter" to elect Obama and pass Obamacare... IN spite of all those FACTS you are still a FOOL For Obama?
He was counting on the idiots of America like you and you certainly haven't disappointed him!
