When 30 FBI agents showed up at Mar-a-Lago to cart off boxes of documents, it was an authorized, legitimate and justified procedure to retrieve national security secrets being illegally kept there.
Or it was an unprecedented regime raid on the home and office of the foremost political rival of President Joe Biden that called to mind a "Third World country," the East German Stasi, the KGB or the Gestapo.
And Jan. 6, 2021?
That was a riot, a disgraceful breach of the Capitol, involving assaults on Capitol cops, actions that deserved to be and are being punished.
No, it was more than that. Far more. It was an "insurrection," a "fascist coup," an act of treason led by far-right extremists to abort the transfer of power from the winner of the election of 2020 to the loser. It ranks right up there with the 1814 burning of the Capitol by the British.
Such is the magnitude of the divide in America, a divide that extends far beyond our clashing views of Jan. 6 and the Mar-a-Lago raid.
Consider abortion. Before the 1960s, abortion was almost universally regarded as a shameful and criminal act. Doctors who performed abortions were disgraced and sometimes sent to prison.
But after the Dobbs decision by the Supreme Court declared that Roe v. Wade in 1973 was wrongly decided, restoration of women's right to an abortion is being championed by half the nation.
The other half of America yet believes abortion involves the killing of an unborn innocent child.
Part of America celebrates the Supreme Court's decision to declare marriage equality for homosexuals…

By electing Trump.
There is no coming together. And there is no reason not to separate. Like minded people deserve to have their own political jurisdiction to live in. Whether the left or the right. I have no obligation to change. I have no obligation to change them. I only have an obligation to live free.
easy, as soon as more than half of hispanics start voting Republican, and blacks stop voting 90%+ for Democrats no matter how stupid, corrupt or inept!
I don’t want to come together with anyone on the left.
The 85% needs to boot the 15% to the curb?
A good start would be to Deport the 81 Million Biden voters.
Probably doesn’t, barring some catastrophy like a nuclear war. Permanent divisions, continuous fighting may be the new normal.
I’d like to think it’s possible, but people I used to have friendly political discussions with now want to kill me and build a new utopia on my bones. So, no.
We need to separate, but it’s a geographical and logistical nightmare to do it.
I don't either. That's why I don't keep up with the leftists I went to college with a long time ago.
I do not think it is possible. Not anymore. We are just far too divided.
I would rather live apart than live like this.
Sad to come to this end.
No uniting is possible. We are dealing with wicked, godless trash. They must be destroyed or chased permanently out of the USA.
You can’t meet evil half way. Half way to evil is STILL evil.
Amen to that. Why would the “we say grace and we say ma’am” folks ever want to come together with the left so aptly defined by the Libs of TicTok?
Excuse me but are you calling Blacks "stupid", "corrupt" and "inept"?
As a hardcore, old school American, I’d just as soon it didn’t. We need Commie RATS to remind us how much evil there is in this world.
It won’t.
Best solution is separation - finish the division. The America we knew no longer exists. The values it was founded on are being trashed on a daily basis.
Two groups of people with diametrically opposed and strongly held beliefs can never peacefully coexist together.
The sooner we come to that realization, the best for both sides.
So let them have their perfect utopian hell all to themselves. And we’ll be happy to live in our own imperfect but real world.
National Divorce
You don’t want to live with them
- they don’t want to live with you
No Civil War - Just Civil Separation
We are there. Now, it’s just the mechanics of it all.
