Rudeness the new normal

After watching both Conventions this year I was surprised by the rudeness of some of those that attended.
The Republicans booed Ted Cruz who refused to endorse Donald Trump.  Never mind that it was Trump's rudeness that was responsible for not only losing several people who refused to endorse and show up. Trump attacked Ted Cruz wife and blamed his father for killing  JFK.
On the Democratic side young white men engaged in mansplaining or  en explaining things to women patronizing way.  These men would tell women most of whom were decades older why Bernie was the only choice and if we like Hillary we were voting with our vaginas.
These same white men would also explain to the poor and minorities that they were choosing the wrong candidate.
