Democrats have a common sense crisis.

They have taken the crazy side of every issue since the election of President Trump.

What in the world could explain such bad judgment?

That includes opposing the deportation of violent foreign criminals, supporting men playing in women's sports, and supporting antisemites on campus.

For years now, scientific studies have shown leftists are their own worst enemies. 

The evidence linking leftism and mental illness is overwhelming.

"A large number of studies have found that conservatism is correlated with sound mental health whereas leftism is associated with poor mental health," said the scientifc survey most often cited on the subject, conducted in 2020. 

Making matters even worse, Trump Derangement Syndrome seems to have turbocharged the left's cognitive impairment.

We look at what that means for Ohio and our nation.
