Conservatives have not had the backing of all mainstream media, numerous multi billion dollar entities, and seemingly almost every government official that actually matters. There's a reason conservatives did nothing but play defense, and that reason is that they weren't allowed to do anything else.

There's extreme measures, obviously, but you can't expect people to resort to those extremes without sufficiently extreme motivations. Probably right about at that tipping point now, but given that pushing people to violence is clearly the intent, it's probably too late for it to do any good unless Trump actually pulls something off.
