Maybe it always was, but especially in the social media age politics is nothing more than my team vs yours. The more your team is losing and my team is doing things that piss your team off, the better we are.

I think a lot of people, myself included, underestimated the desire a significant number of people in this country have to see others suffer. That's really what's driving the GOP right now. They want those they see as the enemy, and the enemy is anyone that isn't in 100% agreement with them, suffer.
