Power for the regime.
A great specific example is RINOs.
Fox loves them.
Romney, Cheney, the Bush family, etc. Fox hates Trump.

The thing about slandering half the country with labels:
Seems you've got two likely outcomes eventually..
1. They start to believe you, and accept that they are what you say, thereby confirming your fears.

Some people I actually like are really struggling to understand how Trump could win, and I write up a big post explaining, then delete it because what's the point? I'll just get blocked and called a nazi anyway.
