We cant point and wag the finger at one party, this division and lack professionalism is displayed by both sides.
Many members here relish in trumps bait alternative fact triggering the 'left', not realizing if the president falters, the country falters... and it trickles down to us all and it will manifest in ways never seen before, as all of this is unprecedented.

I agree and even bringing up Soros is taking a stance on one side and playing the game. We are all biased in our own way and taken advantage of easily.
Both sides share equally in the guilt, but even conversations where that is recognized devolve into a sporting event quickly. We watch our so called leaders on both sides as examples and fall for it over and over again. Our children grow up watching adults behave like children and schoolyard bullies when it comes to politics and it carries it on from generation to generation. They even learn that some lies are OK in a ends justifies the means world that all politicians seem to live in.
We need people in charge who can compromise and work for positive change together, but why should they? Divide to control has always worked and I'm sure goes back to the first tribes medicine man / witch doctor ( or whatever), telling people we must kill those people on the other side of the valley or they will eat all the food. It's in our DNA I'm sure and we just can't seem to evolve past it.
Any further response I could give would involve the woo woo train.
Then I came to your Alton Ill. thread. So, yeah, you can go on with more 'woo woo train if you want.
