Does "America's right-wing media and lawmakers are really outdoing themselves, bigotry-wise" mean "America's right-wing media and lawmakers are really doing better now, better than themselves, but only with respect to bigotry (meaning that they are now more bigoted)"?

Context:

Trump Calls to Ban All Muslim Immigration, and 9 Other Absurd Right-Wing Reactions to CA Shooting
America's right-wing media and lawmakers are really outdoing themselves, bigotry-wise.

@oristarA,
Quite welcome Ori

However perhaps somebody else will come up with a better answer, more detail and background, for I am a lazy one, if not entirely backward and ignorant
