re <<Seems like Manus caught the highly contagious Trump Derangement Syndrome.>>

... no TDS for Manus. Manus suspects the Trump might be a variation of the Mule of the Asimovian Universe neither good nor bad, just different but matters en.wikipedia.org
Description
The Mule is a powerful mentalic and conqueror who uses his psychic abilities to manipulate people's emotions and bring planet after planet under his control. [2] [3] He is a random element not foreseen by psychohistory, a science developed by Hari Seldonwhich uses sophisticated mathematics and statistical analysis to predict future trends on a galactic scale. [3] Posing as a clown named Magnifico Giganticus who is escaping the Mule, he is described by Asimov as "spindly", with "long, lean limbs and spidery body" that seemed "thrown together at random." [4] John Folk-Williams called him a "strange, gangly creature" who speaks "in rather contorted, vaguely literary language." [5]
