Except the Dems are going about this in a self destructive way. They've gone from 0-60 in less than a second and their extreme rhetoric leaves them nowhere to go. When you start with terms like Nazi, bigot, white supremacist, impeachment and racist what do you escalate to? By 2018 everyone but their base is going to be mortally sick of the rhetoric coming from the left.
