Please Stop the divisive posts.

85. I was a Sanders guy. But, the OP is correct.

Trump (whom I call "First Asshole" in many of my posts) is so shockingly objectionable that he should have the effect of instantly unifying Dems and Libs everywhere. I don't know why some form of unification here isn't as robust as it should have been.

In fact, Trump is a prick of such massive proportions that all compartments within the Democratic party and the progressive sphere in general should have slammed together with the force of two strong magnets coming in close proximity to each other.

The occasional posts about what Bernie would have done and why Hillary should, or shouldn't, have ended up with the nomination, etc. are OK up to a point - as long as they're looking at it from the "lessons learned" point of view with an eye toward future strategy.

But, when these posts try to re-hash grievances that have already been "hashed" to death, and devolve into "I told you so" posts and angry "we wouldn't be here if you'd only..." posts, all it does is re-divide us. It does nothing to rectify the profane, Democracy-threatening, festering hemorrhoid that is Donald Trump.

We have to prioritize. We can either, A) Continue to argue the Democratic primary and general election while Republicans destroy America (like endlessly arguing about how crooked the paintings are on the Titanic); or B) Focus on taking back the White House (which is very doable) and taking back at least one of the legislative chambers the next time around (needs a lot of work and attention).

I'll take option B.
