Other factions have other flaws for sure, like blind faith or ignorance or more sinister prejudices and intentions, but the modern left has a self-induced mental condition that is evident in almost every one of them. You try to count on one hand a list of names from the modern or progressive left (or whatever they are calling themselves today) that aren't afflicted.
You could ask the very dregs from a Trump rally how to bake a cake and they'd probably mention flour at some point. Ask a lefties the same question and they'll talk about Trump. For them, every evil, every failing, every catastrophe as they would define it - like their warmonger Hilary not becoming the first wahmen overlord, which incidentally (to them) was a more important factor than what she'd actually do in office - has coalesced into the form of Donald Trump. This lack of rhyme and reason is so profound literally everything can be traced back to his door, even demonstrably imaginary conspiracy theories that in normal times we'd laugh at. This is a gift for the right, btw. They can just do whatever the hell they want to do and let Trump conduct the backlash.
