What with Donnie constantly dividing our country,

pitting supporters against gold star families,
not to mention whites against blacks, european-Americans against Hispanic-Americans, rich against poor, able-bodied vs. differently-abled, christians vs. muslims, cis against trans, straight against gay, republicans against democrats, right-wingers vs. left-wingers, red staters vs. blue staters, healthy vs. infirmed, and so on....
