“The problem is all those Hillary voters / Trump haters think it’s wonderful they tried to stop Trump.”

I'm afraid you're correct. Someone commented yesterday about how the left’s reaction to the memo was evidence that our side and theirs live in different ‘realities’. I think that is true, and that in their ‘reality’ there is no tolerance for much of the America we love and recognize. Joy Reid's comment about President Trump's SOTU address illustrates how far a gulf between us there is:

“Church ... family ... police ... military ... the national anthem ... Trump trying to call on all the tropes of 1950s-era nationalism. The goal of this speech appears to be to force the normalization of Trump on the terms of the bygone era his supporters are nostalgic for.”

Their side doesn't care what the truth is, or if laws are broken, as long as the rest of us are forced to live in their reality - in which their beliefs, thoughts and way of life are held superior to all others. We're becoming balkanized, and that is not something it is easy to walk back.
