No primarily because the vast majority of the left are pu$$ies.
You are right. But this is not a contest between left and right. This is a contest between an increasingly oppressive kleptocracy, and those who are fed up with being the kleptee, and are fed up with being marginalized. Really, this is a contest between common sense, normal people, against an entrenched parasitic class.
The people you see on the street are all talk and no action. But they are just brainwashed and easily led useful idiots. Ultimately, they are irrelevant, except whatever usefulness the parasitic class finds for them -- they are merely pawns. The real enemy of ordinary people are not all talk/no action types. They are playing a very dangerous game here, in that they are clearly aiming to take down Trump, and it is now just a question of when not if, and a question of political cover not evidence.
Fortunately, the odds of this turning ugly remain small, since, as you correctly point out, their supporters are fanatical, but also not exactly tough. But the parasitic class is going to do everything they can to eliminate an existential threat, and they have a lot of resources at their disposal (the media, money, large corporations, academia, and culture, not to mention the federal government itself) which can elevate the level of tension considerably.
This is not the time to be blase about the threat.

Yes, but the “Kleptocrats” are by and large leftist/progressives....not all by any means but a significant percentage.
And the Kleptocrat Generals will find that an army of gutless wonders is no army.

How many snowflake battalions will march out of the universities and enter the battlefield in your opinion?
