Country On Brink Of Insurmountable Divide With Trump

[TheMastersNemesis]

The trouble is that because the media is so bad and will do all it can to reinforce the GOP and racism in this country we are on the brink of a divide that cannot be breached. Of course progressives have to fight where the can. But it looks pretty much like Hillary supporters and progressive forces will be demonized and attacked.

Even now the media looks like it is positioning to bury any dissent or protest by blacking out any coverage. Any coverage will be painting dissent against Trump as aiding the terrorists and trying to destroy the country.

1. Germany-like as Hitler rose

2. Another insurmountable divide? This is the seventh one since 1980.

3. President Obama

And the Republicans blamed President Obama for the divide. This has been growing for a long time. Trump fed the fear and outrage to increase it.

5. RIGHT, this shit did not magically occur on November 8th

It just has gotten more caustic and poisoned, day by day my entire adult life the last three decades.

They were raging asses in the 90s, but had this high and mighty intellectualism to justify it, states rights, the constitution, "principles."

But, per their MO, back then it was Clintons fault, he sullied the office of POTUS and all the derision was justified.

Honestly, Bush II was just the country's way of shutting them up.

Then, after dipshit had 9-11 happen on his watch, it was all terror all the time, and you were an america hating, terrorist loving POS if you did not nod and agree with them, and you absolutely could not criticize the COMMANDER IN CHIEF because we had troops in the field.

That of course, came an an immediate end the day BHO took office, and for 8 years he was responsible for all of their never ending, hate filled rage.

It NEVER is their fault is always the fault of the person they are attacking, then when the are in power any criticism is just disregarded as partisanship, again a word never uttered when Ds are in power.

Honestly, outside of them being hateful pricks, the biggest issue is you can count on one hand the number of democrats who have two working gonads, Bernie, Warren, Franken ... While every fucking R in DC is a raging douchebag.

8. Agreed

And there are some delusional Trump humpers that think he is going to unify the country. That would be funny if it wasn't so sad. Seriously? I do not understand where they are getting this from. He singled out minorities, women and gays as targets.

I swear I have entered into an alternate reality.

[Cosmocat]

10. We are just at an absurd time in this country

30 years of nonstop mind fucking from republicans has created a complete alternative reality that people have just completely allowed themselves to be sucked into.

Its like Leonardo DiCaprio in Inception, half the people in this country have collapsed into their own little dream world.

4. total

total war. I cannot be reconciled to anyone who voted for this pig.
never.

6. don't worry, we'll have a nice big terrorist attack come along to unite us-- just wait.

And then the Dems will have to play nice, with Trump.

Been there, done that.

11. YEP

SOMETHING bad is going to happen that they they will use to keep the mindless fucks in this country in line ...

7. You're kidding, right? Where were you on Nov. 9?

We're not "on the brink," we already had a divide that could not be breached, and the nation has fallen into the chasm. Millions of people betrayed intellect, precepts of their religion, their morals, and their duty to themselves, their children, and their nation to vote for Trump. We were already irrationally demonized and attacked by a mindless right-wing force, H merely our current leader.

As for the threat from the media, that one's easy: TURN TV POLITICS OFF. Read for information after vetting for honest sources. The forces of right-wing darkness DEPEND on people continuing to accept the faces on the screen as your news source.

9. My sentiments exactly, Hortensis. (nt)

12. You should listen to CNN - they have been/are all over trump! Fun listening to it. nt

[TrishaJ]

13. Oh, yeah, NOW

CNN is after it ran hook line and sinker with the "Clinton Email Investigation Reopened" crap. Same way they ran the scumbag "Swiftboat Assholes for Truth" scam against Kerry.

No thanks. No more CNN for me.

[jmg257]

14. Ah gotcha. That is true with the Comey BS. + Took all the attention off trump assaults. nt

[Initech]

15. And Trump definitely isn't taking the presidential stance.

Instead he loves to tackle his favorite punching bag, the "failing" New York Times, and CNN, and they're caving to his interests.

[TheMastersNemesis]

16. Yet CNN Is Acting Like His Lap Dog.
