I found the Hamilton incident outrageous and tasteless in the extreme, but you are right. I think the antics of the left over the past few years (judges forcing "gay marriage" on everyone, "gender fluidity" and disrespect of the national anthem, etc) may have pushed people to the breaking point and elected Trump. Four years of the left's bullshit will probably just alienate more people. This will help offset the young snowflakes who will become eligible to vote in four years.
The more disturbing aspect of this whole debacle is the reaction of academia. They look like fools with all the therapy dog, coloring and play-doh zones and safe space crap. Just like the Mizzou BLM tipping point which cost them dearly in enrollments, the ridiculous coddling of adults is going to be seen as weak and misguided.
