I think there is a larger portion of regular folks who dislike the nutty behavior on both sides (I'm one of them) and just want to move on to more important things than the current fake-outrage news cycles over irrelevant drama/gossip. We might be screwed in the short-term, and if people out of choice/ignorance no longer care about certain democratic ideals, then it is impossible to force it upon them. Having said that, I trust people more than I trust systems. So it might take time, but I believe we're going to get past this eventually.
