The equivalent is true for when Obama was in office and the republican base screamed Benghazi or during the election the chants of Lock Her Up and Fox news' complicity.
Will we as a nation ever move beyond that, or is that where we are now.
The bar is so low that a mere tweet can spark a 24 hour news cycle and the hatred so strong on both sides that a misplaced sneeze can lead to calls of senate hearings or house staged walkouts.
It is both sides, and it is phony to the nth degree, but it is how they work up both bases, knowing nothing will ever come from them...

Perhaps when we stop letting the 20% crazies on the extreme left and right control the narrative.
I think there is like 60% of this country that is normal and moderate but just doesnt have the time or interest in engaging with crazy people. To busy going to work, hanging with family, enjoying the weekend etc.
We should have to decide between moderate candidates like Kasich, Biden, Obama, Paul Ryan, Romney etc ... instead we get to choose between dumb ass Trump or crazy ass Bernie.
Squeeky wheel gets the oil.
