The Trump side understands that we think of Trump as a dangerous clown and despise him. They're probably willing to let us make fun of Trump some. They'll probably respect us more if we do it, because he's making such an ass of himself. Trump supporters won't be willing for us to make fun of them though.

A whole bunch of the other side would go along with us on what we want to do (climate change, health care, education, etc.) if we don't insult them.
