“I believe the real split & end of any unity in recent times started with the Robert Bork confirmation hearings.”

We disagree! While that may have been a “sign” (canary in the coal mine), it was not the cause. America has been like this since we started this little exercise. Think of the events leading up to 1930, 1861 & 1776. Even our Anglo founders followed the same pattern before they jumped over here. All in about 80-year cycles.

The book The Fourth Turning (http://bit.ly/2MUeH7a), written in 1997, describes in detail how (and why) this happens about every 80 years. See one of the authors describe the theory in this video — http://bit.ly/37EAqrM

There is nothing new under the sun.

Hard to “unite” with a cage full of snakes and survive.

It sounds good to the snakes, though.

I prefer divided. I now know who not to trust. Trump has outed them. About time!

today, America is populated by Americans and wannabe Europeans.

There can be no co existence. The wannabe’s must be destroyed or moved elsewhere.

NO.

It's because some people want to force me to support deadbeats and criminals.

Disunity is a sign of a healthy society.


The disunity we’re experiencing now is far from healthy. We are in a death struggle with an adversary who wants to see the Constitution overthrown. This is far from healthy.

The left used to have all the power and now they realize they are losing it. I think that is why they have ratcheted up the hate. Personally, I despise democrats and I am not very interested in what they think or feel. I hope they all ESAD.
