Melania's Visit To Help Hospitalized Children Was Protested -- by Hospital Staff

If you thought you were managing your moderate-to-severe Trump Derangement Syndrome symptoms but they flare up in contact with a contagion like, say, a member of the Trump family, you’re not alone.

Trump Derangement Syndrome, or TDS, can have rare but serious side effects for those who work in the public light.

Those side effects can include self-important outrage and ill-considered displays of public protest that devolve into embarrassment. Contact with CNN can exacerbate these symptoms. Speak to your doctor if you believe your TDS is getting out of control. Or just make a fool of yourself. Either one.

Even though they have plenty of access to health facilities, staff at Boston Medical Center decided to go with the latter option in terms of managing their TDS.

When first lady Melania Trump came to visit the facility on Wednesday, she was greeted by a “Stand-In for Solidarity,” in which 250 center employees were scheduled to protest her visit via a silent display of either solidarity (their words) or inanity (my take).

The protest, according to Boston Magazine, was “meant to reflect participants’ support of BMC patients, many of whom have been aversely affected by Trump administration policies.”

The same thing, of course, could be said about patients under any administration that dealt with health care in a meaningful, substantive way.


A quick search couldn’t dig up any results for a Boston Medical Center protest against Obamacare, but perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised when we’re dealing with a hospital in one of the most liberal parts of the only state that went for George McGovern in 1972.

What did surprise me, however, were the optics of the situation.

It wasn’t just that Trump was visiting the hospital, which is — last I checked — generally a gig where presidents or first ladies of any stripe are welcome.

It wasn’t because it was under the auspices of her “Be Best” program (or, as Boston Magazine put it, her “much-lampooned ‘Be Best’ initiative”) which deals with bullying, internet safety and opioid abuse and addiction, among other things.

No, nothing quite as assailable as that. She was visiting a ward specializing in babies born to mothers addicted to prescription or illegal drugs. The children are suffering from an affliction known as neonatal abstinence syndrome.

The program is called Cuddling Assists in Lowering Maternal and Infant Stress, or CALM.

In other words, Melania was literally visiting a neonatal ward in a hospital along with Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar to study a program in which babies suffering from horrible withdrawal symptoms are cuddled.

Excellent job of picking your battles, folks.

Here’s the protest:....

In collaboration with the f**e news media the intelligence committee had a closed door meeting condeming her visit because she has compassion. My speculation is that in that liberal city they were afraid that she might find relatives of theirs and use this against them. Although I love them everything good done by The First Family alerts them that it is really Anti-American. Maybe they might file a divorce suit to divorce them (embarrass) from the public again.

One of the numerous complications that are bi-products of TDS is acute maturity regression which, if left unchecked, leads invariably to the TDS sufferer reverting to a pre-adolescent psychological and overall schoolyard child's mental state.

That this particular complication has been permitted to occur in a medical center is indicative of a certain amount of negligence among senior staff.

Children will be children.
What a bunch of mental midgets at the hospital.

Losers being losers again.

Today's Democrats... They will politicize anything. When I read about the Seattle bunch looking to turn Math into an identity politics curriculum, I wasn't as surprised as I might have been just a few short years ago.
