What are they seeing? you know, specifically?

I'd say it's been going on for much longer than 8 years. No-fault divorce, abortion, the rise of single-parent households, gay marriage, now transgender issues. These are just off the top of my head. So, yes, many on the right actually are seeing their America slip away.
The divorce liberalization started immediately after WWII (go look at the stats), predating Roe v. Wade by over 20 years. Growing up as I did in the 60s, I recall local consternation with specific divorces, but damn, I don't recall any sit-ins, marches, TV campaigns, pro or agin divorce law changes in that era. Certainly nothing like the abortion issue garnered, and yet, shouldn't divorce have really been a hot button issue in the 60s??
People who wanted one and couldn't get one just went out of state to do it, and amazingly enough, their divorces were recognized when they returned home. Not like gay marriages conducted out of state decades later. Why is that, BTW ??
And even to this day, except for my sarcasm dripping diatribes agin the goddam divorce/remarriage loving Christian slackers, does anyone EVER hear anything about banning divorce in the national forum ?
On a few occasions, Westboro Baptist has waved a banner decreeing divorce whores, but that, I'm afraid, is it.
So, bringing this back to the quoted post as a whole, it's clear divorce started it, the folks having a shit hemorrhage selectively on other issues fail to cognate it all stems from their laxity, spiritual malfeasance and literal embrace of the lynch pin of all the subsequent moral decay and cultural rot they see and it stems entirely from their acquiescence to divorce.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
