Why are we so polarized?

[sealybobo]

It's hard to not be polarized when the right for years called Clinton a rapist then they go an elect a rapist

These women have accused Trump of sexual harassment - CNNPolitics

You were so sure Clinton raped every women who accused him of rape but you don't believe one of the women that accuses Trump? That's interesting don't you think?

No one accused Trump of anything until he ran. He was a rich celebrity. Interesting don't you think? WJC had relations with an intern and lied under oath about it. Tough for him to be credible. Don't you think?

I don't think you think. LOL

Plus my post was a joke.

Clinton’s extramarital affair led to his impeachment, yet Trump seems immune to similar allegations. A panel of experts gets to the bottom of the double standard

Donald Trump v Bill Clinton: why don't the sex scandals seem to stick?

But the roots of the double standard are no mystery, according to experts, who identified for the Guardian at least four key factors distinguishing the Trump era from the Clinton era:

• Political tribalism has increased since the Clinton years, discouraging party defection even in extreme circumstances.
• Democrats don’t care as much about sex scandals, or decline to pretend to care as much, as Republicans have done – and it turns out Republicans don’t actually care either.
• There are too many scandals in the Trump era to get caught up on alleged extramarital sex.
• There’s something unique about Trump that scrambles our collective moral compass.

The president has denied the various affairs in question, including with the pornographic actor, Stephanie Clifford aka Stormy Daniels, and with McDougal. He has also denied allegations of sexual misconduct made by at least 20 women.

We now know Trump lied about Stormy. You don't care how much he lies as long as he's not under oath? Interesting.

He got caught lying about Stormy. Probably broke some laws too. So why would you think he's telling the truth with the other 20 women? And why don't you want to impeach him?

When did the Stormy encounter take place? Was he under oath?

Like I said, you don't care that he lied to you as long as he's not under oath? That's interesting.

Hillary wasn't under oath yet you cons go on and on about her lie that she was under sniper fire. Why do you care that she lied? She wasn't under oath.

The truth is, you didn't really care. Let me repeat: “It’s hypocrisy among people who told us that personal character matters now telling us essentially we’ve been lying to you the whole time, that personal character was a convenient attack that we utilized, but it doesn’t really matter to us when it’s someone on our side,”

I asked you two questions. Answer them LOL.

Republicans don't have the courage or moral compass. If Trump was a democrat he would have already been impeached.

We're so polarized because many who have a significant vested interest in keeping us divided are doing their jobs very well. Add to that many in the populace who blindly buy into it, and there you have it.

and then there are people like you!

Yes, the majority, who wish wingers would find another hobby.

Not yet. The investigation isn't over. No need to be premature.

After the guilty verdict of President Trump's former campaign manager and the guilty plea of his former attorney, some Democrats renewed a push for impeachment. But most top Democratic leaders brushed those calls aside.

Democrats Not In Any Hurry To Call For Impeachment Proceedings

So far, the answer remains no. So many Democratic leaders are hesitant about calling for impeachment that when Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren was on CNN this week, the possible presidential candidate was asked if the idea made her nervous.

ELIZABETH WARREN: I'm not nervous. I just want to be effective. And the way that any of us are effective is to say, let's get all of the evidence. Let's get all of the pieces out there. Protect Robert Mueller. Let him finish his investigation. Let him make a full and fair report to all of the American people. And when we've got that, then we can make a decision on what the appropriate next step is.

If Democrats are going to win back the House, they'll need the support of independent, moderate and even Republican-leaning voters in districts currently held by GOP lawmakers. That's one reason why President Trump regularly warns that Democrats would try to impeach him if the party wins back the House. He and other Republican leaders think the threat could rally GOP voters to show up in November.

Government spending is 100 times more redistributive than it was during the JFK era.


Let me repeat that for anyone who missed it.


Government spending is 100 X more redistributive than it was during the JFK era.

What has changed in America? The use of force of government to take from some to give to others in exchange for votes.

Leftists are gutting and destroying America.

the answer to why are we so polarized is simple, people like you, Sniperfire.

The most recent person to have created a rift in the fabric of America, is in my opinion, Newt Gingrich.

His leadership has to markers which continues to be rules for the Republicans:

• Don't comprimise
• Don't every admit a mistake (blame it on Democrats, leftists, liberals, Hollywood, the MSM, Minorities, etc. etc.)

What about the way you constantly ridicule those who disagree with you? DO you think that is helpful?

It's not helpful. But I don't back down from bullies and assholes, and those are the ones I ridicule, mock and laugh at.

No, you are certainly insulted people just for holding positions you do not share.

No that's only a symptom of a different root problem.
