The divide can either be lessened or increased.
Trump has always been tied to its increase.

And Obama didn't? Look at the riots when he was in office because of the way he said certain things. Look at the terrorist attacks in this country because he coddled them, even defended them. But you're absolutely right Luther! All those moments definitely made us all feel closer!!

Glad we got rid of Corker and now it’s Alexander’s turn.

One day repubs will regret selling out their stated ideals to become the party of trump. They just hit the gas on the race to the bottom

I'd read anything from Will before trying to decipher something tweeted from potus

Are you always this melodramatic?

Two seats, right?...one of the R's in the senate was appointed after losing to a D (to a bisexual atheist in a purple state)...

On the net, R's still lost bigly.

Those two seats resulted in opening up the margin forcing any bipartisan Congress legislation and 100% of federal judiciary appointments. Trying to spin that as “still lost bigly” is massively short sided and totally misrepresenting the actual long term impact of the 2018 election.

I'm fascinated by the number of Republicans who have lost all their power in politics due to their behavior since Trump came on the scene. This is particularly interesting because Trump has turned out to be an enormously popular President within his party. I encourage the rest of you to add onto my list 'cause this is just off the top of my head:

1) Mitt Romney-gone from very nearly elected President to now being done politically. He couldn't win election as dog catcher. Republicans hate him and Democrats will never accept him. He's done as a politician and has no political power

2) John Kasich-He was a very popular governor of a very influential state. His next step politically had no ceiling. Now that he refused to attend the 2016 GOP convention in his own state, he's through politically. See above (Mitt Romney)

3) Bill Kristol-Lost his political significance. He's through

4) George Will- See above

5) Jeb Bush-See John Kasich. Jeb is through politically

6) Michael Medved- Had a pretty nice talk radio show. He was what I'd call a Bush Republican but still a steady supporter. But viewers tired of his attitude (negatively) towards Trump and his show was cancelled in most if not all markets in favor of Trump supporting hosts like Sebastian Gorka and Larry Elder

7) John Bolton- He can't even get an invite to a Fox News after party

That list was purely my own. I didn't get that from any website or article. I welcome your comments and contributions to this subject

If you want to read further on this phenomena, here's an article that talks about the miscalculations of these Never Trumpers, how they got it wrong and how they're paying the price:

Disgraced Republicans used to resign from office. Now you can pay to commit adultery with a gross porn star or say "grab 'em by the *****" and nobody even bats an eye. This is a complete change from the Republican party I grew up with.

Republicans generally took the high road, and now Trump goes for the lowest road possible, and R's slurp that **** up.

It's so easy to blame one data point. Even if you want to say things were already going in this direction, fine, but the change in trajectory is stark.

It’s called fighting fire with fire

So true. The worthless and useless will never be satisfied until everybody is dragged down to their level. It’s called equal misery. No one will ever unite this country behind social issues but a person can unite a hell of a lot of people through their wallets and yes, it really is that simple.
