    I watched it.

    Seems spot on from my perspective. Good chit.

    I didn't watch it. But I also independently verified the premise by thinking about it. And that process brought me to this conclusion ......


    a) Birther movement
    b) Russiagate
    c) HondoFS
    d) Clinton Foundation
    e) profit

    Since Nixon every Republican Presidential candidate and President has been said to be a racist by the Rats. John McCain and Mitt Romney, were both said to be racists. The polarization started long before Hillary's birther movement.

    America becomes more polarized when the GOP wins

    When a Democrat wins the seas receed and the bird's sing and everything is right again

    If everyone would just think the same we'd be fine

    The GOP is the true enemy of the American people

    Is cute how you think the corporate establishment only rains money down one-side of the aisle.

    My big tent, coalition party of TUFF logging camp liberals and country club Republicans is gonna win 60% of the vote some day. The evangelicals and democratic socialists can get fucked.

    One side hated first. When the other side fights back, that is polarization. Leftards completely miss the 1960s in America and the entire 20th Century in the Soviet Union, Germany, China and Cambodia.

    That was good.

    Pretty stock and trade programs from both the CCP commies and the ex KGB commies in Russia to divide the US and keep it distracted with domestic affairs. I watched a very similar process happen to the Ukraine prior to the Russian "liberation" of Crimea.

    Not saying it's the only reason so don't twist, just a lotta fuel being poured on the fires by foreign actors these days.

    Yep. Or there's "they did it first and we're just fighting back," which is just as thought-provoking.

    Actually not. The US hasn't fought an aggressive war since 1898. Except may be Libya?

    Why do I let myself take a peak at this shithole where morons hang out?

    When obama was elected mcconnell said the gop would block everything he tried to do. Legislation that Obama supported would get blocked by the very same republicans who supported it under previous administrations.

    republicans won state houses in 2010 (the last census) and gerrymandered half the country to help keep themselves in power even when they would lose at the ballot box. Gerrymandering is what has divided the country more than anything else.

    Then you have a racist president who can’t bring himself to say anything negative about white nationalists in Charlottesville.

    Tie all these things together and you see how the gop (old white men party) will do anything to cling to power, including divide the country. There is a reason the south is virtually all republican. Hmmm...I wonder why?

    Perhaps you'd be more comfortable in one of these:
