Best line: "Any decent psychological detective can conclude why the Left, including especially the Democratic Party — formerly a pillar of our political system — has gone insane." Trump has them right where he wants them and seems perfectly capable of keeping them there thru 11/20.

The split in “progressivism” happened around the start of the 20th Century. In Europe, the “National Socialists” became Nazis, and the “Internationalist Socialists” became communists.

In the United States, Teddy Roosevelt led the Nationalist Progressives”, and Woodrow Wilson led the Internationalist Progressives.

Though there was not yet a translation in English, TR spoke German and translated the works of Frederick Nietzsche, then plagiarized them in his speeches.

For his part, Wilson had a philosophy of Idealism in international relations, that was as bad as it sounds.

After watching the debates, or reading about them as I could not abide watching, one must conclude that they are all insane.

If you’re against insanity you must be a hater.

"But I do think that Americans are unlikely to vote into power a clinically insane party, as long as their votes are counted honestly." (Emphasis added.)
