A recent poll by The Pew Research Center is reporting that America is more divided than ever. According to the poll, 66% of consistently conservative Republicans think the Democrats’ policies threaten the nation’s well-being and half (50%) of consistently liberal Democrats say Republican policies jeopardize the nation’s well-being. With everything that is going on in our country, all Americans should be united. So, what is it that has us divided? The issues that we are facing effects all Americans on both sides of the political fencefrom foreign policy disasters, wide-open borders to the economy.

Short answer to the question in the title: YES.
Could it be that half of us are living off the other half?
America? Yes. Flyover Country? No.
America? Yes. Flyover Country? No.
Yes, because a critical mass of her people have become completely reprobate and incurably evil.
“Never seen the country more divided”
That’s what happens when you have absolutely no leadership.
I’m on the fence but it is VERY near the point of no return at best!

Oddly enough, a leader is required to have leadership. Seems like there’s no rudder on the boat currently.
Only 66% of "consistently conservative 'republicans'" think this?! THAT is why we are too far gone. There is no longer an official opposition Party to America's sworn Enemy.
Reagan’s two landslides seemed like a dead cat bounce when you consider that we elected two GOP presidents who grew the government, had a highly corrupt 2 term Clinton presidency and a 2 term ultra marxist president, Barrack Hussein Obama. I’d say this is a very bad trajectory.
The “Death to America” crowd finally got their candidate into the White House — and they are maneuvering in to deliver a fatal blow to the Republic.

Oh we have leadership alright; it’s just inherently evil and leading the nation straight to hell and the gibmedats refuse to admit their chosen leader is evil or they are just plain stupid
The federal gov’t is aswarm with Wesley Mouches and worse. We are almost wholely changed from a nation of liberty - do what you want unless it is explicitly prohibited - to a nation of feudalism - do nothing without explicit permission. The (once) sovereign states are now shackled to a behemoth federal corspe that is sinking beneath the waves of history. The time has come for the states to seriously consider whether, indeed, the Constitution is a suicide pact. Shall we all be drowned just because the North won the Civil War?
too far gone?
yer either gone altogether or not...
matter of fact i just recently onlined the answer to this as “gradualism”...that tells the tale...
Semper Watching!

It may not be possible, we may have passed the point of no return. That being said we should never, never, never, ever give up. It would be wrong to do so......
I really do not see the GOP as a huge improvement.
BOTH parties are all about sending jobs to foreign countries.
Both parties are selling out America.
Kind of like the lyin’king score card. Scary that there are still ~48% that approve? What? So, when enough takers get on board, will his numbers go above 48% approval? I guess it’s those folks who still have the obie/biteme stickers on their cars from both (s)elections. Grrr. (Pitt maneuver in my head.)
I'd wager that if the HOR passed a bill funding transportation to send invaders home and a 10-mile militarized by US troops DMZ...the northernmost 10 miles of Mexico....it would be overwhelmingly popular.
