That’s factually false. Nobody who matters in any meaningful way wants to “destroy” Northam. He needs to resign as governor because he can’t effectively govern a diverse state after this. But nobody is saying he can’t continue to be a physician or to do other public service.
If it's true he can't effectively govern a diverse state after this - it is at least partly because of the overblown reaction. Plus you've got to be careful with "nobody who matters in any meaningful way" talk. Mobs have power even if they're full of people who "don't matter".

Where do you see an overblown reaction? All I see from Northam’s fellow Democrats are statements like “his service has been good but how can a governor regain trust after this” which is obviously true.

Right, Northam's fellow Democrats will inevitably take their cue from how it's playing among their supporters, particularly being informed by social media, which is where you can find the overblown reaction.
