The Republicans had already portrayed the Democrats as "evil" due to being pro-choice on abortion so were able to successfully sell themselves to the religious of both the Catholic and Evangelical persuasions. But those who voted "pro-life" did not consider the rest of the Republican agenda at all, and if carried to its logical extreme, they'd vote for Hitler if he promised to overturn Roe vs Wade. (And that's exactly what happened. Trump is Hitleresque.)
But since the election of Trump, the Republican policies have become downright cruel. And thus, Democrats can credibly portray the Republicans as evil.
So now we have both sides portraying one another as evil. (Not a good way for a nation to endure.)

Seems more like the road to internal conflict. Eep.
Glad to know I'm a moral cesspool. I thought they were.
