The RWPM has portrayed democrats, the media, and immigrants** as "the enemy". They've been pounding on that for years. Probably 30% buy it (the convict's base).

There is some spin on the democrat's part, but it isn't a general thing. The convict is an enemy to democracy. Plus his sycophants. Mostly the left sees the extreme right (like the Vance and Greene and a few others) as "nuts" (or "weird"). Others like Liz Cheney or Kinzinger they just don't agree with, but aren't "crazy".

If there's a civil war, the Republicans will be the ones who start it. Which is kinda scary, because they also own most of the guns in this country.

In my youth, at one point I thought 'let's line up all 535 members of Congress, shoot them, and then elect a new bunch and say "you better to better'". It was mostly hyperbole. But modern Republicans might actually do it (except for the electing new ones...I think they want to go straight to appointing all the radical right folks without bothering with voting).
