The study, which was released Monday by the Journal of American College Health, evaluated 769 students at Arizona State University studying psychology in January and February 2017. About 25 percent of respondents reported symptoms of PTSD because Donald Trump won the election.

“What we were interested in seeing was, did the election for some people constitute a traumatic experience? And we found that it did for 25 percent of young adults,” said lead author Melissa Hagan, an assistant professor of psychology at San Francisco State University.

Joey Jones, a retired Marine Corps bomb technician who lost both of his legs in a bomb blast while serving in Afghanistan, took issue with the survey's findings.

It must be very hard on these students to learn that everything they were taught, everything they believed, was a lie. Maybe they should sue their “educators.”

They were big babies before President Trump won. The PTSD is caused by the public school officials pressuring them into declaring they are members of some unknown sexual group.

It is not PTSD. They suffer from TARD (Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder). They are all TARDs.
