As the left become more and more frantic...

they double down on their delusions of the Trump monster, the, hero who is Biden, and the public who just doesn't get it!

A 77-year-old racist, misogynist bigot who has been found liable for rape, who incited a deadly, violent insurrection aimed at overturning a democratic election, who has committed mass fraud for personal enrichment, who is facing 91 separate counts of felony criminal charges against him, and w

ho has overtly discussed his authoritarian strategies for governing if he returns to power against “an 80-year-old with mainstream Democratic Party views who sometimes misspeaks or trips.”

“One of those two candidates,” Klaas notes, “faces relentless newspaper columns and TV pundit ‘takes’ arguing that he should drop out of the race. (Spoiler alert: it’s somehow *not* the racist authoritarian sexual abuse fraudster facing 91 felony charges).”

People who go to school to learn to talk about things are generally some of the least informed, most easily gaslighted people out there. These are people who generally see critical thinking as an evil done by disobedient people who simply won't accept the wisdom of the intellectuals. Because they are not taught to do anything constructive they believe that this give them some special ability to understand intellectual concepts that the lowly rest of the world is incapable of grasping. They worship at the alter of opinion and demand that they are the elites or the intellectuals.

Of course, this is an author who writes an entire column referencing people who are ignoring one of the first rules of psychology. That rule being you never make diagnosis of people you are not actually treating. The reasoning for this longstanding rule is not a matter of etiquette, but as a matter or professional ethics. Real psychologists will tell you that diagnosing people from afar is not possible from any reasonable standpoint. You are guessing and when you are guessing you are prone to being wrong. When you are emotionally attached to the situation, then your guessing is almost a guarantee that you are wrong.

Perhaps the average layman is more accurate when they look at Joe Biden and Donald Trump and see the former as less capable as the latter in being able to run the country. Perhaps in the simplest terms they look at the state of the country and the world and make an observational conclusion that the 81 year old who sometimes misspeaks or trips has lost the ability to adequately function, much less lead 350 million people out of the abyss. But that is not clever enough by half. The intellectuals, you see, will see another side that fits their agenda. The fact that it makes no sense to the layman is just further proof that the layman must follow them.

This all leads these sorts of intellectuals to band together and intellectualize amongst themselves, because nothing proves their theories correct better than another intellectual agreeing with them. They see the real world "results" and real world "realities" as secondary to their high pedestal thinking and opinions; As if of the two, it must be results and realities that are wrong if they do not conform to their opinions. So the fact that the country and world is crashing and burning while our feeble minded 81 year old President who cannot talk without losing concentration or walk without tripping has no clue what to do about it is irrelevant. They (a handful of intellectuals) will explain to us that all the negativity we see is not real and the real problems fall within the scope of us potentially having a President that the intellectuals do not like.

The biggest puzzle of all, however, is exactly how easy it is to gaslight the intellectuals into believing that a civil rape charge (which the jury said was not rape, btw), a civil fraud case, and four different unprecedented criminal cases, all brought by like thinking liberals is somehow supposed to prove something about Trump, rather than something about these liberals. They might see themselves as intellectuals, but that is simply evidence of a lack of self awareness.
