I think the biggest thing impacting this country right now is the overall lack of respect.....from anyone. I'm not a fan of all of AOC's antics, but...really?
I'm genuinely curious about what you consider "antics" or "batshit crazy".Yep...stupid as hell. I'm glad she doesn't represent my district...she's batshit crazy.
I'm actually surprised no right-wing lunatic has tried to take her out yet.
Actually, the President that prevented the division of the nation is not by any sane measure a divisive President. He took the ultimate step to prevent division. He set the stage for the US to emerge as the greatest nation the world had ever seen.Actually, by almost any measure, Abraham Lincoln was quite possibly the most divisive person to ever serve the office of the presidency.
We all seem to have difficulty noticing the faults and divisiveness of those with whom we agree while being more than willing to accept from them absolute nonsense as fact. Obama's divisiveness planted the seeds that gave us Trump. I hate to imagine what comes from the seeds being planted by Trump.
Some people don't think black people should be able to vote, let alone be president. To them he was very "divisive".. As in he made them angryHow was Obama divisive? I don't recall him constantly attacking a segment of our population

I remember asking conservatives during the Obama administration what it was they thought made him divisive. The only consistent answer I ever received to that was that Obama once said that Trevon Martin could have been his son.Actually, by almost any measure, Abraham Lincoln was quite possibly the most divisive person to ever serve the office of the presidency.

I guess by that token Abraham Lincoln would have to be defined as divisive. If the reasons are so vastly different, why claim the same category.
Sorry, but I categorically reject the notion that Obama was divisive. We have a sub population of people in this country who are fundamentally unAmerican intent on dividing the nation, a population the Russians are training like monkeys to destroy this nation. The Republican Party has become a national security threat.
Of course.... Because they are insane.From the conservative perspective, Obama was being divisive by being inclusive.

I only meant divisive in the sense that there's a massive number of racist people in our country, regardless of their claims. He's incredibly American, but apparently so are racists.I guess by that token Abraham Lincoln would have to be defined as divisive.

Today, almost all of us would list President Lincoln as, at least, one of the top 5 greatest presidents in the history of this country if not the greatest. When he was alive, however, that was not the case at all.
We don't We all have difficulty noticing the faults and divisiveness of those with whom we agree while being more than willing to accept from them absolute nonsense as fact. You do. Your both sides bull shit is fine in a world that is absent of truth. The whole function of abstract reasoning and critical analysis is to separate fact from fiction. You are unprepared for citizenship. The notion that Obama was divisive is non compos mentis.
...So fuck you and fuck your bullshit about ...
Again, Fuck You.
Lincoln was first elected with about 39% of the popular vote meaning he was opposed by more than 60% of the voters. Many thought he won a rigged election due to the fact that in several states he wasn't even on the ballot and got no votes at all. His election led to the worst division this country has seen to date with the secession of the southern states and the start of Civil War.
For the next election, Lincoln didn't even secure his own party nomination and had to form a new party called the National Union party. In this election, only the northern and western states, where Lincoln was very popular, were allowed to vote. Still, he only secured just over half of the popular vote.
Yes, I believe Lincoln was the most divisive president to date. I also believe the country was at a point where this division was necessary to bring about the changes and unity that followed, though it's my opinion that his assassination did more to unify the country than most of the things he said or did. Unfortunately, the divisions also deprived the country of the greatness that could have been if Lincoln had actually had the support of the country.
Although we all saw it through the different lenses of our own life experiences, we all lived through the same 8 years. If you failed to see any divisiveness when it was happening, nothing I can say will make you see it now. I'll let it suffice to say that those in control have us exactly where they want us. The division works for them. As long as we are supporting our teams and fighting against each other we'll never fight for each other. If we were to ever fight together, for each other, who knows?
Per CNN the picture was of some students that were Moscow Mitch supporters. They were not campaign workers.
Covington kids, I take it.
He’s currently proving to be quite divisive for the Democrat primary.How was Obama divisive? I don't recall him constantly attacking a segment of our population
