The term, "TDS"

Trump Derangement Syndrome

Look up the Overton Window and see how what is repulsive at one time becomes "normal" in another.

Your coworker is pushing you out of the conversation because they are confident about their location within.

What do you mean they are confident about their "location" "within"? Location within what?

Reply to TiredThinker, presumably in their Overton window. Can't speak for Reply to Paine though.

jorndoe is correct in that the 'window' is described in this way:

Quoting J. Lehman

The Overton Window is a model of policy change, and Joe was the first one to articulate it to me. In his view, ideas become policy only after they move from being unthinkable notions that cannot become law to becoming popular ideas that elected officials are eager to ratify into law. This can take days, or decades. The purpose of a think tank, and other “secondhand dealers in ideas” to use F. A. Hayek’s term, is to make the case for ideas that are politically impossible until they become politically inevitable. A window of public opinion shifts to surround some ideas and to leave others behind. Think tank research, analysis, testing and debate can shift this window.

But your coworkers dismissal of your dismay is also a normalization of rhetoric that was previously considered unacceptable.

Quoting TiredThinker

I guess it means people either love or hate Trump no matter what he does?

TDS always sounds like it should describe die hard Trumpers, or Trump himself, rather than detractors. If absolute opposition to Trump is irrational, then why is total and slavish endorsement not a form of derangement?

We can diagnose two forms of TDS. The red version of TDS is the one destabilizing the country/economy, as it is causing blue TDS. Just throw it back and tell Trumpers they are also suffering from TDS. TDS springs from patient zero: TRUMP.
