The divide is far more severe now than it's been in at least recent history.

At the federal level I don't think that republicans have a large enough voting base to survive without sorting.

Yes, there was division. There was also a brief time when we were united in our bloodlust for revenge.

Yes, there was division. There was also a brief time when we were united in our bloodlust for revenge. 1. I know plenty about the attitudes of Americans after 9/11 there not fucking hard to find.
2. Even during the height of the "bloodlust" there were internal divisions. Sorry, that's a fact.
So kindly fuck off telling me what I do and do not know
