Please, link me to where Obama called his fellow citizens evil, or called for violence against them. Or said that he had the absolute right to pardon himself.

Did you look at the links for OP's points? Are you not answering the question because Obama didn't say these things? Because Trump didn't say all the things OP linked.

How do you be civil with someone that calls you evil[1], mentally deranged[2], a rioter[3], a communist[4]?

The last 3 links are to sources that are **not quoted by Trump**. Rather it is the party making the statements.

So I'm asking are there similar examples being made by people in the Democratic party?

If you are intellectually honest then you can look at what's happening on both sides...and I'd wager you'd see similarities? I'm not sure how similar - which is why I'm asking OP if there are examples.
