The D’s sometimes do it to each other, too. A few years ago in Chicago, a D incumbent state rep had a primary challenge. Her daughter and son-in-law were caught by the challenger vandalizing his campaign signs. As I recall, they were outside his campaign HQ. He confronted them and they beat him to a pulp. Mom got re-elected, though.
When I lived in the 10th Ward, there were rumors that the long-time alderman suddenly decided to retire because of threats against him from the Machine.
Thugs, one and all. Hillary was wrong about their being civil once they win.

They are a vicious gang, no doubt.
