The Democrats’ superiority complex
American Thinker ^ | 3 Apr, 2025 | Patricia McCarthy

That's where they think their right to rule us comes from.

“A superiority complex is a defense mechanism that develops to help a person cope with feelings of inferiority. It involves exaggerated beliefs about one’s own achievements or abilities leading to behaviors such as being boastful, vain, or unwilling to listen to others. The term was coined by Alfred Adler as part of his school of individual psychology.” (Wikipedia)

The above definition describes former President Joe Biden to a tee.

In fact, it describes his entire family. It describes his entire circle of pals, that cabal that lied to the American people for four years about his mental status. It perfectly describes almost every member of the mainstream media who excoriated anyone, any guest who dared to suggest he was damaged goods.

Now that Biden is out of office, those same defenders are all rushing to write their books, to tell the truth about how seriously cognitively impaired Biden was.

Maybe Dr. Jill will write a “memoir” about her brave, Edith Wilson heroism; she will claim it was she who was so competently running the country.

Much of the damage the nation has suffered has been decades in the making, but the damage done by the Biden regime has been catastrophic in every way. He planned and executed the invasion of the country, spent so irresponsibly that the national debt is now $37 trillion.

Congress of course is culpable for that as well, both Democrats and Republicans. Spending is what they do best but few seem to have mastered Econ 101.

The list of Biden’s failures is long and excruciating and hardly needs to be repeated here.

Every American is aware, except of course the Democrats who continue to pretend that he was sentient and that Trump is ever

The Dunning-Kruger effect on display:

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people with limited competence in a particular domain overestimate their abilities. It was first described by David Dunning and Justin Kruger in 1999. Some researchers also include the opposite effect for high performers: their tendency to underestimate their skills. In popular culture, the Dunning–Kruger effect is often misunderstood as a claim about general overconfidence of people with low intelligence instead of specific overconfidence of people unskilled at a particular task. Wikipedia

"the Dunning–Kruger effect is often misunderstood as a claim about general overconfidence of people with low intelligence" --- Is this the DemocRAT effect then?

The Democrats’ superiority complex is identical to The Zeepers' superiority complex.

I agreed 100% when I read this AT article this morning. The Dims and their cult followers have said to themselves over and over that they are the educated and the experts. They’ve said to themselves over and over that those who disagree with them are the knuckle dragging science denying hillbillies.

Even though their predictions are always wrong. Even though our “conspiracy theories” turn out to be right. Even though they can’t tell the difference between men and women. Etc. With all these things they still seem to mean it when they say that they are better and smarter than the rest of us.

I always thought the easiest analogy to explain the Dunning-Kruger effect is to use 90% of the characters that Will Ferrell plays in his movies as examples.

Worst thing we ever did was allow Democrats to stay in America. After the civil war every Democrat should have been purged from our shores.
That was then this is now.
How do we solve the Democrat problem?
#1 make all our prisons like a Federal super max.
1 prisoner per cell, 23 hours per day. 1 hour for outside
exercise. If your one hour is at 3AM, so be it.
#2 Offer free re-location to anyone who wants it, With the understanding you can never come back without a passport and visa from your new home.
#3 Democrats that don’t want to leave, The rest of the population must make it abundantly clear that by use of passive aggression, we will not help you, unless absolutely mandated by law.

They think all this is helping them. It’s not. It is dragging the party into the gutter.

well, if that's where your constituency is....

Why, Attorney General Pam Bondi, has Schiff not been indicted for treason and for lying to Congress over and over again about the Russia and Jan. 6 hoaxes?


Because the Constitution gives him immunity for anything he says while Congress is in session?

Yes many individuals have that superiority complex. Arrogant, boastful with a criminal, evil mind underneath that glossy veneer.

When I contemplate this I see the contemptuous smirk of Kaitlin Collins.

Democrats sit in classes for 4 to 6 years and listen to professors bash America, praise marx, and lear agitation for tax dollars and democrat party power. They didn’t do crap in their chosen majors. Not a thing. They are oh so much better than those smelly plumbers and mechanics because they listen to NPR like all the other smart people who went to the same colleges.
