Trump has inspired such racial divisiveness that actors have to fake hate crimes in order to get attention.
The excuse that he did this to shine a light on this problem doesn’t fly either. If this really were the case we’d be hearing about the stories every day from the mainstream media, but we don’t, because they don’t exist.
I know you don't believe that, but for those on both sides...... I would argue that two people divided our country, and neither one was our current POTUS. How could I say such a thing? Please see for yourselves:
*Note: There are only 5-10 people that are U.S. citizens, and over 60 years old on GB regularly so I'm only going back to 1980 for this post.*
Unlike, leftists who are too lazy to look up facts, and make arguments based on emotions and/or off of what they are told is "true"; I am willing to look into things when I have a thought/belief to see if my hunch is correct.
My hunch/belief/observation is that conservatives have mostly tried to unite America and encouraged them to do more/better, and leftists have tried to use people who struggle by convincing them they’ll get more/do better, while trying to divide the America.I submit the following info found on wikipedia, and my objective thoughts.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._presidential_campaign_slogans#1984 Feel free to dispute my thoughts……,but give your reason!Campaign Slogans of final Republican and Democratic Presidential Candidates (plus notables):1980(R) Ronald Reagan - "Let's make America great again", and "Are You Better Off Than You Were Four Years Ago?" (Unifying on the first one, a question to all on the second….., but definitely directed at Dems, which are made up of mostly minorities among us common people, so it was targeted to a group IMO)
(D) Jimmy Carter -"A Tested and Trustworthy Team" (Lot a work went into that slogan….neither unifies nor divides)
1984(R) Ronald Reagan - "It's Morning Again in America" (Good things have happened for everyone in our country, let all of us keep it that way as we’ve only just gotten out of bed…more good things for all about to come = unifying)
(D) Walter Mondale- "For New Leadership", and "America Needs New Leadership", and "Where's the beef?" (No wonder Dems lost two in a row with these slogans = neither unifies nor divides….nor inspires in any way)
1988 (The very beginning of identity politics IMO)
(R) George Bush 1 - "Kinder, Gentler Nation", “Thousand Points of Light”, and “"Read My Lips, No New Taxes" (Unifying, Unifying, ..whoops, don’t make promises you can’t keep…especially if you plan to start a war over oil)
(D) Mike Dukakis - "On Your Side" (Who is “your” exactly? Picking sides is divisive
Jessie Jackson - "Keep Hope Alive" (I think everyone knows whose hope he’s referring to…not sure whether he ran as Dem or other party)
1992(D) Bill Clinton - "For People, for a Change" (which people?), "It's Time to Change America" (neither unifies nor divides), "Putting People First" (which people?)
(R) George Bush 1 - "Stand by the President", "A Proud Tradition", and "Don't Change the Team in the Middle of the Stream" (Doesn’t unify or divide…..no wonder he lost the election)
Ross Perot - "Ross for Boss", "I'm Ross, and you're the Boss!", and "Leadership for a Change” (too bad he was so self-centered with his slogans…not sure if Ind. or other party?)
1996(D) Bill Clinton - "Building a bridge to the twenty-first century" (not divisive or unifying)
(R) Bob Dole - "Bob Dole. A Better Man. For a Better America." or "The Better Man for a Better America" (….too bad he was so self-centered with his slogans)
Notable Pat Buchanan - "Go Pat Go" (….too bad he was so self-centered with his slogans)
^what a shitty year for slogans!!! Was there a “Marketers” union that was on strike this year? Seriously, these fuckers have 4 years after a POTUS wins to come up with something good….
2000(D) Al Gore - "Leadership for the New Millennium", and "Prosperity and Progress" (Don’t divide, unite, or inspire)
(R) George Bush 2 - "Compassionate Conservatism", and "Reformer with Results" (Don’t divide, unite, or inspire)
^all marketers were still on strike???2004(R) George Bush 2 - "A Safer World and a More Hopeful America” (lame, but somewhat unifying)
(D) John Kerry - "A Stronger America", and "Let America Be America Again" (Honestly….Unifying! Nicely done Mr. Kerry!)
2008 (Full on identity politics by the Dems is embraced)
(D) Barack Obama - "Yes We Can " (Who is we?), "We are the ones we've been waiting for." (Oh, now I get who “we” is = VERY Divisive) "Change We Can Believe In." (More of who “we” is = VERY divisive), "Change We Need." (More of who “we” is = VERY divisive), and "Hope" and “Change” which you can learn more about the posters those were on (VERY VERY DIVISIVE!)
***Read Obama's branding strategy, and explain to me how it is not totally divisive?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_2008_presidential_campaign#Branding(R) John McCain - "Hope" (lame), "Country First" (lame, but unifying), "Reform, prosperity and peace" (more of teh lame)
2012(D) Barack Obama - "Forward" (“backwards”....neither unifying nor divisive on it's own)
(R) Mitt Romney – “Believe in America", "America's Comeback Team", "Restore Our Future" (all lame, but unifying), “Obama Isn't Working" (true, lame, divisive to those who voted for Obama, but not for the overall public)
2016(R) Donald Trump - "Make America Great Again!" (UNIFYING! NO
LEGAL LAW-ABIDING AMERICAN WASN'T INCLUDED IN AMERICA)
(D) Hillary Clinton - "Hillary For America" (Narcissistic twat!), "Forward Together" (as long as you’re together “with her” = divisive) “Fighting for us" (define “us” nvrmnd..already did), "I'm With Her" (let’s be “together” with her = pick a side and VERY DIVISIVE), "Stronger Together" (we’ve already established her definition of “together” = “gang up” and very devisive), “When they go low, we go high" (stolen from Michelle Obama, running out of ideas, and “we” all know who “we” is = Very Divisive, "Love Trumps Hate" (oh shit, he’s gotta shot….no good ideas left, use of the word hate directed at opponent = VERY VERY DIVISIVE)
2020 (Only those with chance in primaries so far…)
(R) Donald Trump - "Keep America Great" (all of America is kicking ass and taking names, keep it going America! = Unifying, but he can do better!)
(D) Tulsi Gabbare - "Lead with Love" (A play on Hillary’s “Love Trump’s Hate” …. So love, while hating Trump = lame, no opinion on divisive/unifying yet)
(D) Kamala Harris - "For The People" (we all know which people she’s for and against = Divisive)
(D) Cory Booker - "We Rise" (we all know which people he’s for and against = VERY DEVISIVE)
(D) Bernie Sanders – “Feel the Bern” (LOL…we do. It’s like commie red burning red) "Not me. Us." (“us” means “we” which we know who “we” is, and they will be use by him)
(D) Elizabeth Warren – “woo-woo-woo-woo-woo” Indian chant
