“That’s crazy! Our leaders must be insane!”
That’s basically how most Americans react to much of what they see going on around them every single day.
From the Biden administration’s enthusiastic support for amputating body parts of troubled children, to its obsession with bringing as many millions of illegal aliens as possible into America, to its recent demand that U.S. airlines employ more people, including pilots, with “severe intellectual” and “psychiatric” problems, it’s increasingly clear that many of America’s current leaders are, to put it plainly, stark raving mad.
But making this statement is not an exercise in calling one’s political opponents nasty names, as happens so often today.
Rather, it’s about taking a serious look at the reality that America’s current leaders are indeed genuinely insane – in a clinically diagnosable way. We’re talking about rampant sociopathy, psychopathy, Borderline Personality Disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder and other scary-sounding conditions whose clinical symptom-pictures perfectly match many of today’s leaders.
Of course, many cases of what the secular psychiatric world labels serious “mental illness” ultimately boil down to individuals who, one way or another, willingly or unwillingly, have fallen into the grip of dark spiritual forces.
Yet it’s illuminating to briefly explore how current research in psychiatry – a field ironically dominated largely by the left – nevertheless has concluded that leftist radicals and leaders are, more often than not, “way out there” on the spectrum of serious mental illness.
For example, in a groundbreaking peer-reviewed study published in March 2023, titled “Understanding left-wing authoritarianism: Relations to the dark personality traits, altruism, and social justice commitment,” authors Dr. Ann Krispenz and Dr. Alexander Bertrams found that left-wing extremism is closely associated with “psychopathic tendencies.”
“Narcissistic individuals and those with psychopathic tendencies are more likely to strongly endorse left-wing antihierarchical aggression,” summarized the widely cited PsyPost website, which reports the latest research on human behavior.
“Individuals with dark personalities – such as high narcissistic and psychopathic traits – are attracted to certain forms of political and social activism which they can use as a vehicle to satisfy their own ego-focused needs instead of actually aiming at social justice and equality,” the authors explain.
Stated simply, left-wing psychopaths pretend to care about “social justice and equality,” but in reality are just feeding their massive “ego-focused” lust for power, glory and revenge.
Likewise, retired psychiatrist Brad Lyles, M.D., explains that “one way of understanding the increasingly outlandish beliefs and behaviors of the left is through the lens of Borderline Personality Disorder. The Borderline diagnosis,” he notes, “is among the most infamous diagnoses in psychiatry. It is the diagnosis that keeps therapists up at night, covered in sweat, fearful of every encounter with this sort of patient.” Lyles writes:
Understanding the long-researched processes driving Borderline Personality Disorder provides unique insights into the processes driving the more extreme politics of the left. The Borderline model explains not only the often inexplicable behaviors of the left – but also why the left is so legitimately dangerous.
The most dangerous feature of the Borderline model – and the process most dangerous in our politics – is “psychological” projection, as distinct from the “political” variety.
Psychological projection hardens a patient's mere belief or suspicion that the OTHER (person, organization) is bad into a CONVICTION the other person is bad. ...
On the contrary, political projection – “accusing the other guy of what you are doing” – is merely a strategy. A prominent – and execrable – example would include the three years Democrats accused President Trump of "colluding with the Russians" while they themselves were in fact colluding with the Russians.
Psychological projection is not a strategy. It is a threat.
With psychological projection there are no gray areas in the belief structure: The other person is ALL BAD. There is no circumstance in which a person (or political party) is understood to possess a combination of both good and bad features.
This “ALL BAD” belief structure is what the late Pulitzer-winning columnist and psychiatrist Charles Krauthammer was getting at when he famously wrote, “To understand the workings of American politics, you have to understand this fundamental law: Conservatives think liberals are stupid. Liberals think conservatives are evil.”
It’s this same “conservatives are evil” belief that underlies the left’s epically deranged comparison of President Donald Trump with Adolf Hitler – hands-down the most reviled, genocidal mass murderer in world history. Yet top Democrat politicians, including Joe Biden, as well as the “mainstream” (i.e., irredeemably left-wing and dishonest) media, have continually likened Trump to Hitler since before he was elected president in 2016 and continuing today, eight years later.
Yet if Trump really is another Hitler, where exactly are all of his Hitler-like policies and actions? After all, the man was president of the United States and leader of the free world for four extremely important years. What justifies such a comparison?
In reality, of course, Trump’s policies were totally in line with the values and sensibilities of the great, center-right American middle class that has long constituted this nation’s moral, economic and spiritual backbone. America’s economy was stable and strong under Trump, unemployment at historic lows, perverse trade agreements replaced with fair, pro-American ones. Border enforcement was a priority, America’s military was being rebuilt, and the world was blessedly free of major wars, due to Trump’s personal strength and leadership.
But hold on. Can it really be true that many of America’s top Democrat leaders are ruthless psychopaths?
Let’s rewind a few years and briefly focus on Barack Obama, since 1) much of today’s societal madness began or accelerated because of him, 2) a great many people believe Obama is calling the shots in Washington, D.C. today, and 3) his wife Michelle is increasingly considered a top contender for becoming the Democrats’ presidential candidate later this year.
Many Americans believe, and some widely respected voices have said publicly, that Barack Obama is a “sociopath” or “psychopath.” (For the record, though numerous psychology articles attempt to differentiate between “sociopathy” and “psychopathy,” in the end the analysis always boils down to the two being essentially the same, with “psychopaths” just being a little worse than “sociopaths.”) In 2016, Dr. Ben Carson referred to Obama on camera as a “psychopath.” The aforementioned columnist-author Charles Krauthammer, a psychiatrist by training, repeatedly pointed to Obama's “extreme narcissism.” Pulitzer prize-winning columnist George Will wrote in the Washington Post about “Barack Obama's intellectual sociopathy.” And so on.
Consider a typical description of sociopathy: "Sociopaths are often well-liked because of their charm and high charisma, but they do not usually care about other people. They think mainly of themselves and often blame others for the things that they do. They have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly. They seldom feel guilt or learn from punishments." Remind you of anyone?
Fast-forward back to today: From President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to the presidential Cabinet – including in particular Attorney General Merrick Garland, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra – all of these people "have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly." It’s literally what they do for a living. And to all appearances, they do so easily, reflexively and without conflict or conscience.
Democrats twice as likely as Republicans to be mentally ill
Interestingly, it’s not just the left’s leaders who are “mentally ill.” Gallup pollsters conducted an extensive study involving more than 4,000 interviews conducted over the course of four years, which concluded that Republicans had “significantly” better mental health than Democrats. Likewise, a SurveyMonkey study found that Democrats suffered significantly more mental illness than Republicans. In fact, Democrats were found to be twice as likely to have been diagnosed with a mental disorder as Republicans in almost every category, from anxiety, depression and PTSD to bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and narcissistic personality disorder.
Yet, it is the left that continually accuses Donald Trump and his supporters of being deranged, delusional, racist, anti-science and mentally ill. That’s projection.
And speaking of projection, recently a “gender-affirming” psychologist gave a prize-winning demonstration of the ubiquitous left-wing tactic: At the World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s 27th annual training symposium in Montreal, Canada, Dr. Harriette Wimms, who is the clinical director for the Village Family Support Center in Baltimore, Maryland, said regarding parents who oppose cutting the breasts and/or sex organs off of their own precious children – wait for it – those parents have a “mental illness.”

“There is, unfortunately, a great deal of so-called mental illness in America today," said bestselling author and longtime Whistleblower Editor David Kupelian. "Many people, especially among the young, are simply victims of deranged leaders, teachers and ‘influencers’ in government, education, culture, social media and even medicine. These people promote bizarre behaviors and beliefs – like radical gender ideology – that just a decade ago were officially recognized by the American Psychiatric Association to be serious mental disorders.
“However," he added, "what about our leader class, including many who perfectly fit the clinical symptom-picture of fearsome disorders psychiatrists describe with names like ‘malignant narcissism’ and ‘borderline personality disorder’? Today’s increasingly totalitarian ruling elites – from the 'let’s cut off kids’ body parts and engineer a massive foreign invasion of America’ Biden administration to the ‘let’s terrify everyone about global warming and insist they eat insects while we dine on steak and lobster’ globalist crowd in Davos – are not just sick. They’re totally in the grip of evil.”
