I'll offer you one counter thought. You point to the divisions as being
more dangerous or worse than wars, terrorist attacks, etc. Why is it the folks that claim this never look to the left or TDSers roles in those divisions? Whether it was calls for impeachment before he took office, pushing Fake News stories from day one about the MLK bust, the Russian collusion hoax, Maxine telling us to let them know they're not wanted anywhere, Resisting anything that could be seen as a Trump "win" even if they later admit Trump was right on substance if not tone (China, ME peace, etc.), two sham impeachments, etc.
Trump was able to shine a light on these tactics and lies, and was willing to fight back. And yes, that, and pushing policies we thought were best for America, was part of what made him acceptable, despite his many flaws, and despite it exacerbating those divisions.
I doubt any of our resident lefty loons will do so, but remember, when you're pointing that finger of division, there are four fingers pointing back at you.
