I'm not convinced the "home-team political atmosphere that rejects any critical thought about your own side" is a thing. Clinton is too far to the right even by the Democratic party's standards to inspire much enthusiasm on the left, and while Trump is terrifying enough for voting against him to be a good motivator, I don't see her getting many breaks. I mean, I've probably seen this reposted more often than anything else in support of voting for her. But yes, she seems open to being pulled to the left to some degree, so criticism from the left can do some good.
