His messaging was fatal to our current democratic institutions

Our democratic institutions were set up to be poisonous to itself. You can't shift a centuries long problem onto one person saying "boo" to the cooked goose of the democratic party.

That doesn't mean I think Stewart's word is gospel. (I think his interview with Coates and that one former Bush era diplomat were grating to get through and very frustrating, for two examples off the top of my head.) But the things that he criticized the Democrats for were things people were trying to raise the issue on well before the election. To say that he was responsible for the explosion as hundreds of Congressmen and women watched as a 50 mile long fuse slowly burned away and did nothing to stop it is hard to take seriously tbh.
