Both sides talk about a divide but from my reading of conservative blogs and FB posts, there's much more talk about the 'Uniparty' and elite vs deplorables on the Right, except maybe for the Bernie Bros on the left. Left vs right is remarked on but more in sorrow than in anger, exception made for SJWs in that case. The SJWs seem to return the favor, and I think they are overrepresented in the media.Christopher Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00396671757183163171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-37221705275564903222020-02-06T13:16:00.790-05:002020-02-06T13:16:00.790-05:00The Left is bitter because they lost the last elec...The Left is bitter because they lost the last election, and they were supposed to WIN it!!!!1111!!!!!!Sam L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00996809377798862214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-33294117320915694652020-02-05T20:43:33.907-05:002020-02-05T20:43:33.907-05:00If the "bitterly divided" is a pundit/me...If the "bitterly divided" is a pundit/media phrase, then presumably more leftists will use the phrase since more of the media are leftists. I hear very little conservative talk radio, but what I have heard assumes a great divide. Religious radio seems to assume it too, for fairly obvious reasons.jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01792036361407527304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-58025932343425936132020-02-05T19:22:21.465-05:002020-02-05T19:22:21.465-05:00It seems to me that the Liberal media-driven messa...It seems to me that the Liberal media-driven message is that the country is divided - that is, the citizenry is at loggerheads, not speaking to each other, at loggerheads. It also seems to me that the conservative-driven message is that the division exists at a higher level, with our political leaders. It's all about the elite, who hate us, and their minions who operate at the citizenry level, executing directives. I don't see messaging that it's a Civil War, brother against brother.Aggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11089648434324058300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-64352616995887597642020-02-05T15:16:41.041-05:002020-02-05T15:16:41.041-05:00"Bitterly divided" is the mirror image o..."Bitterly divided" is the mirror image of "the US is ungovernable" when a Democrat inhabits the Oval Office and can't get anything through a Republican Congress. It just means that the Democrats are unable to do anything from their position of as either a full or partial minority in the legislature.Christopher Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00396671757183163171noreply@blogger.com
