I and millions of lefties tried that moral high ground for 20 years. Then we witnessed the nonstop demonization of Obama and all things liberal. Then we saw the election of Donald Trump. So...no more "moral high ground" for me. 

You're living in a fantasy world if you think that moral high ground is going to change thinking and reprehensible behavior of the modern conservative. And lets face it...only one of our two major parties has gone off the proverbial deep end. I'm pretty sure you know which one.
