I agree with the OP, the two sides have been at cold war and one must choose sides.
I know this will be challenged but in my mind, it is without doubt the left that
has driven for division in America. It worked.
Lol you don’t think that strategy was perfected by right wing republicans in the aftermath of Obama being elected POTUS and his subsequent 8 yrs in the White House.
You got the first bit right though, it was such obvious hypocrisy that it couldn’t go unchallenged.
@earl-of-trumps saidWhether metaphor or analogy the issue remains the same. Surely America can't move forward by simply taking sides with each side blaming the other for escalating divisions?
metaphor, my friend, metaphor.
@earl-of-trumps saidYeah, nothing polarizing about that statement.
:-) Pete, it is very difficult for me to grasp an analogy with the cold war and
America's social divisions.
I know one thing, I'm glad lefties don't have the nuke bomb lol

this in my life. I thought Richard Nixon times were bad and never to be repeated,
holy cow!

@earl-of-trumps saidAre the things Obama and Trump did exactly equal? If not, what does an unequal response demonstrate?
Please, kev. When Obama was president, the right was never as lunatic about
his being as what se see now from the left.
@earl-of-trumps saidYour having a laugh ‘Tea Party’ ‘Birther Movement’ the reaction was to a perfectly sane and adequate POTUS and was based on racial panic.
Please, kev. When Obama was president, the right was never as lunatic about
his being as what se see now from the left.
But you expect the rabble rousing idiot that’s in the White House now to get a pass on everything he does or you cry coup and left wing conspiracy. He’s threatening to ignore the election if it goes against him, what has this idiot got to do earl?
@earl-of-trumps saidbwahahahaha.

Fox News started screaming bloody murder because he once wore a tan suit. He once asked for dijon mustard on his hot-dog so fox news called him a snob. They called him a panzy because he rode a bicycle with a helmet on.
Trump derangement syndrome manifests with being uncomfortable with Trump's corruption, racism, stupidity. Obama derangement syndrom manifested with calling him a communist and non-american.
So spare me the whining that "the right barely attacked Obama". They attacked him all the time only they barely had anything to attack him on. The things they would have been entitled to whine about were the things they were far more guilty of. They kept quiet about those.
@earl-of-trumps saidI know no fear.
It's only a reflection, Shav. Don't be scared.
Well, besides spiders. And heights. And wasps.
But other than that.
@kingme saidI think it is more a response to the left's strong desire for totalitarian government
Are the things Obama and Trump did exactly equal? If not, what does an unequal response demonstrate?
and Trump put up a road block.
Remember, when Trump was elected we just got off of 8 years of Obama. Ok,
Ok, so we share, right? Not the Democrats! They started hating Trump long
before he was sworn in.
Untrasensitive people that feel they are entitled to perpetual power in America
Your having a laugh ‘Tea Party’ ‘Birther Movement’ the reaction was to a perfectly sane and adequate POTUS and was based on racial panic.
This does not make grammatical sense to me, kev. Sorry.
But you expect the rabble rousing idiot that’s in the White House now to get a pass on everything he does or you cry coup and left wing conspiracy.
Now, do you really think that it is fair that you FORCE those positions onto my
beliefs, Kev? C'mon, Kev, you're better than that. Don't put words in my mouth.
He’s threatening to ignore the election if it goes against him, what has this idiot got to do earl?
Are you really worried about Trump remaining in power if he loses?
I suggest you are a conspiracy theorist. Good luck.
@ponderable saidDonald Trump's resignation.
Where is a Center Position which people of both sides could agree to be reasonable?
@kevcvs57 saidCall me insanely optimistic, but maybe if things get even more divided a realistic centre party gets created with mass defection of the more credible politicians from both sides of the divide. Maybe that is pie in the sky, but the major parties are beginning to get so extreme that they could destroy their credibility completely in the eyes of the silent majority?? I think there is certainly a discontent with politicians in general for a lot of people.
“ I think it is a shame that there are very few serious centre politicians apparent. ”
Are there though? Take the UK, I think they are out there but they are split into the Tory left or wets and the Labour right or Blair’ites, If you add most of the Lib Dem’s and SNP I would say they’d make up,the majority of MPs
“ Maybe that is because it is easier to gain power and f ...[text shortened]... ers are too easily shepherded into tribal political pens especially when any kind of election looms.
