Let us first make the important distinction, Democrats are not liberals. Nothing about them can be considered to be "liberal."
They are Progressive leftists devoted to Socialism that eventually leads to totalitarianism.
As we watch Democrats erupt in a rage of vulgarities and outrageous lie-filled rhetoric while pounding their insignificant tiny little fists on the table, and while encouraging their followers to attack Tesla's and their owners or invading the neighborhoods of Supreme Court Justices as releasing a tide of anger, a two-year-olds behavior come to mind.
This is a party of mental illness. One that hates God and morality. Has utter disdain for our Constitution. Lacks any common sense. Believes that one can change their gender simply by dressing like the opposite sex. Refuses to define women. Fights deportations of criminal aliens. Fights to stop the discovery and removal of waste and corruption in our government and basically stands for nothing.
Progressivism as a mental illness
Dr. Rossiter’s studies may be condensed to the proposition that modern progressivism is a form of mental illness, characterized by the failure of such individuals to grow up emotionally and thus remain in a perpetual infantile state. Their behavior is that of “Spoiled Brats.”
A companion read is the 2010 book Pathology of the Elites. How the Arrogant Classes Plan to Run Your Life by Michael Beran. He defines “false benevolence” as the cover used by progressives to impose strict political and social control over the citizenry in the name of “enlightened pity.”
Amongst a plethora of such behavior, none is more typical and revealing than President Obama and his recent claim. “I am confident in this vision because I’m confident that if I – if I had run again and articulated it, I think I could’ve mobilized a majority of the American people to rally behind it,” Obama told his former senior adviser, David Axelrod, on Monday’s “Axe Files” podcast. “I know that in conversations that I’ve had with people around the country, even some people who disagreed with me, they would say the vision, the direction that you point towards is the right one.”
Count the number of times Obama uses the pronoun “I” in just these few sentences. A two-year-old toddler might match him.

As we ponder the temper tantrums by current progressives and offer analyses of the driving force behind blatantly bad behavior, we might consider the studies by psychiatrist Lyle Rossiter, M.D. in his 2011 book, The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Ca...
