A study published last month in the Journal of American College Health found that one quarter of college students experienced “clinically significant” symptoms of trauma from the 2016 election results.

At Vassar College in upstate New York, the college Democrats are moving their results-watching party to a new venue over concerns that revisiting the scene of their 2016 letdown would be too upsetting for some students, according to a member of the group. At Brown University in Rhode Island, the College Democrats have taken the same precaution after experiencing a “collective flashback” to Trump’s victory during a discussion of election night planning.

The unfortunate trauma victims scored a 10 on the "10 scale of whining little shits". The election results nearly guaranteed that they will remain whining little shits for the rest of their lives, without the usual maturation recourse into intelligent, conservative evolution after meaningful life experiences up to and beyond 30 years old.

It isn't PTSD, it's mass psychogenic illness (or mass hysteria):
