Trump blasts 'obstruction' by Democrats on fixing healthcare
can the democrats stop insulting trump at every turn?
can the anti-fa ever let someone else speak if they don't agree with them?
cnn can't go through the day w/o raggging on him. hell, through an hour
we can have liberal plays of ceasar and kill trump on stage and that's ok
we've been divided for a long time. if you're just now noticing it then you like how obama divided us up but maybe not trump.
but rest assured the divide isn't new and trump is not the root of it.
I felt that way with Fox when Obama was president who had to twist and spin to keep the righties angry.
The only time that I have ever seen the country united was for a few days after 9/11...
the sad part is - i'm not even sure that would pull us together now. we have people in here wishing death on fellow americans. why? cause we disagree.
basically that's it and its sad as hell. if we did go to war we'd almost be split in who we'd support. idiotic liberals are out there pushing muslim values as better than our own. if this were a tv show i'd change it for being stupid.
but it's life and you got nowhere to go but to keep on trying to fix things. show patience. and keep at it til we eventually do in fact find that "common ground".
Not true at all.
Some perspective if I may.
According to Wikipedia, the 2016 General election saw 129,000,000 Americans vote. Approximately 200,000,000 did not vote. You can say it was because of the quality of candidate but the ones before that had similar numbers; 127 million in 2012 and about 129 million again in 2008 when you had a very inspirational candidate. National politics mean so little to most Americans that the majority of citizens do not vote. And yes, some are not able to due to age or other restrictions but it’s still a massive number. For those who do vote, believe it or not, it isn’t bloodsport for most Americans. We sit around and sip our coffee or stronger beverages every morning and decry the state of affairs if X happens or Y happens but most often, X and Y do happen and there is little that changes on main street. Politics is simply not that important to most people.
When we do fight a war (as we are still doing by the way) only sick and easily dismissed lunatics are on the side of anyone except the soldiers doing their duty and getting home safely. I will be the first to admit, I do not have a clue of why we are still fighting in the middle east. Nobody can tell me what “winning” looks like. Personally, I think we should be a colonial power again and the cause is important enough to waste blood and treasure, we should conquer the nations that we’re invading with the mind set on adding a star to the flag; Because whenever we leave, the power vacuum issues and you have chaos and danger in the region. Administrations of all stripes do it.
Anyway, the nation is no where near as divided as most people think. Media have 168 hours to fill every week. Sensationalist stories sell. So the stories are sensationalized. In the old days, the news divisions never had to turn a profit. When corporations started buying networks, they bought their news divisions as well and right along side Happy Days, the Cosby Show and Seinfeld, the nightly news had to turn a profit. Sensationalism almost always means scandal of some sort. In the news business, the old saying is that nobody cares when a dog bites a man; they only care when the unusual happens; man bites dog. Reporting that the stop lights at 5th Avenue and W57th are working fine is not news. The traffic jam caused by their not working is. And of course, as we saw with Bridgegate…you don’t hear about people getting home late, you hear about the ambulances and police that had trouble (I suppose there are some but I would find it hard to believe that if you have a medical emergency in Fort Lee, you’re going to dispatch an ambulance from Manhattan…just saying).
Take this test. The politics of my mailman are __________. The politics of my daughter’s gym teacher are ______________. Most people I meet are _____________ politically. If you didn’t answer “mixed” to all three questions, you either live in one of the very few enclaves where there legitimately is a stronghold of ideology or you’re kidding yourself.
