Like, literally every time abortion is brought up, it's "Evil baby killers."

What kind of sheltered, delusional world must you live in to think Democrats aren't called evil anymore and it's only the other way around

It's not that the Dems aren't called evil ever, it's that you're not going to find the vast majority of republicans calling them that. There's examples, sure. Hell, trump uses that rhetoric too. Yet when he does it's also regulalry called out or distanced from by those in the party when he does. If you're talking about the way republicans talk about them it's not in a moral way, not anymore. That's firmly something by the democrats on republicans. It was common with Bush and it's gotten very, very vocal with Trump. To democrats, Trump isn't an issue of policy, he's one of morality, an evil. Quite literally an embodiment of one who is at bare minimum corrupting an entire country's soul according to the frontrunner. Republicans meanwhile will insult democrats primarily by calling them ignorant, stupid, etc but evil ain't at the top or anywhere close. For democrats, it is.

As for the abortion example: that's beyond party. It's definitely viewed as a moral issue but Dems ain't exactly the point of contention there. Pro life might be the majority of republicans and pro choice the majority of dems but the category of democrats that makes that a thing is white, college educated - they're 94%. For everyone else combined it's 55%. For black democrats it's 50/50.
