I almost lost it when I saw this clip. Really? Obama wants to know how we became so divided?

The same Obama and Hillary who characterized the people as a basket of deplorables? Who described small town America as bitter, clinging to gun and religion with antipathy against immigrants and people who aren't like them? Who said: "If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, 'We're gonna punish our enemies, and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us . . .' Who said "We don't mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back."

The same Obama who called all opponents of same-sex marriage 'bigots.' Who called the pro life movement "a war on women." Who called all who wanted a secure border 'racist'. Who called the GOP 'the enemy of Hispanics.'

By the end of 2016 and after eight years of America having its first 'black President", ". . .Race relations have deteriorated to an unenviable place. In a July 2016 poll, nearly 70 percent of Americans agreed that race relations are generally bad – a level unseen since the 1992 Rodney King riots. . ." Barack Obama: The Great Divider

How did we become so divided Obama asks? He (and a number of others) only need to look in the mirror for the answer.

 
Obama is a communist made in a lab. You stupid lefty fucks fell for the grift.

Why does he have MULTIPLE BEACHFRONT HOUSES. What about CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE RISING SEAS?!

You dipshits fall for anything.

The balkanization of the US population started in the 90's. We thought we had ended the PC wave that hit, but it just went underground, and emerged meaner and with more subdivision.

Donald John Trump.
But, that's somewhat of an oversimplification. He's just the result. In reality, it's you. And people who cling the past nostalgia like it's something tangible. Who can't move on. Who can't live and let live. Who believe in the dumbest conspiracy theories. Who consume misinformation like they'll die if they don't get it.

Obama didn't do that.
You did. :)

this is true. We have Newt Gingrich to thank for this.

Yet Obama’s own rhetoric and that of other Democrat leaders has fanned the flames of division before and during the time he was president. As a July 2016 Rasmussen poll taken six months before Obama left office noted, 60% of Americans felt race relations had gotten worse since Obama’s election.

In 2016, campaigning for president, Democrat Hillary Clinton offered her deathless remark, “You could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the ‘basket of deplorables.’ Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic—you name it.”

In April 2008, when he was running for president, Obama infamously said, “They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

More Obama:

2008: “I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face.”

2009: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry. I’m angry.”

2010, in an excerpt from Jonathan Alter’s book, “The Promise: President Obama, Year One,” Alter quoted Obama referring to members of the conservative Tea Party group as “teabaggers,” a vulgar slang term explained here.

2010, on the prospect of the GOP taking back the House of Representatives: “They see an opportunity to take back the House, maybe take back the Senate. If they’re successful in doing that, they’ve already said they’re going to go back to the same policies that were in place during the Bush administration. That means that we are going to have just hand-to-hand combat up here on Capitol Hill.”

Just prior to the 2010 election: “If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, ‘We’re gonna punish our enemies, and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us’ — if they don’t see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election — then I think it’s going to be harder.”

2014: Obama said racism was “deeply rooted” in America, stating, “This is something that’s deeply rooted in our society, deeply rooted in our history.”

In 2016, at a memorial service for five Dallas police officers ambushed and gunned down by a man who said, according to Dallas police chief David Brown, that he “wanted to kill white people, especially white officers,” Obama declared:

America, we know that bias remains. We know it. Whether you are black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or of Middle Eastern descent, we have all seen this bigotry in our own lives at some point. We’ve heard it at times in our own homes. If we’re honest, perhaps we’ve heard prejudice in our own heads and felt it in our own hearts. We know that. And while some suffer far more under racism’s burden, some feel to a far greater extent discrimination’s sting. Although most of us do our best to guard against it and teach our children better, none of us is entirely innocent. No institution is entirely immune. And that includes our police departments. We know this.


 
this is true. We have Newt Gingrich to thank for this.
It actually began here. Newt and his "Revolution" was the beginning of the breakdown of civil discourse. But even Newt, for all his philandering and incompetence couldn't bring the country to where Trump has.

He was one of the most divisive people in leadership I know. During his tenure, he pitted doctors against insurance, insurance against taxpayers, taxpayers against doctors, blacks against whites, Christian’s against non Christian’s, telling Republicans to ride in the back of the bus, he just couldn’t help it, he continues to do this and has no self awareness in that regard.

Obama was right. Your kind are racists, bigots, and deplorables.
 

Butthurt?
You would figure we would be a lot less divided than 60 years ago. That means we have propagandists along with any racists there are on all sides. And they use it to give themselves a great living and power.

and we have discovered that the misinformation is a deliberate campaign by the left following a Critical Marxist playbook made famous by Mao.
