And in case anyone's wondering, the winner here, ever since Trump's election, has been Vladimir Putin. If you look at the stats, our electorate is divided, darn near down the middle, between R and D. That's no different than any time in our past. The difference is that Putin recognized how polarizing Trump was, and he knew that was the guy he wanted in the White House, because those who supported him would go firmly to one side, while the rest went just as firmly to the other. He turned us all into a bunch of useless, stammering extremists, doomed to never agree on anything, no matter how righteous or important.

Perfectly divided, and ripe for conquest. That is where we stand as a nation. That is one evil but smart dude, and he now owns us. Sleep tight.
