There was a joke from nazi germany jews had, paraphrasing, but the jist of the joke was as a jew just look at the newspaper to see how much you were winning. The joke being the papers made them out to be the end all be all of all the problems of germany, and much bigger and larger than they were in reality, as a minority.

So like today the republican party is the opposite, they won, and yet in all their memes and commentary they are also on the other end of being besieged.
