Republicans Must Stop Attacking Democrats as Though They are Some Enemy

This is a good example of how I hear far too many members of the Republican Party refer to Democrats, fellow Americans. I dno't know if it was when Russia failed as a state but at some time in recent American history, Republicans started perceiving Democrats as, no exaggeration, "the enemy." We're supposed to all be working together for the benefit of all, for the benefit of the nation but they repeatedly pit themselves and their political party squarely against Democrats. It's in their rhetoric repeatedly and for some, constantly. Missouri's own Senator Josh Hawley is especially adept at this. It's more than concerning, it's downright frightening. It tears down the national fabric. It's not one political party against the other. It can't be. We have to all be working together for all. Always. We have to get back to working together. I don't know how we get there, really. By talking, I guess. By flushing this out. But we must. And we need to start now. With the very emotional and attacking and vitriolic Donald Trump gone, we should be able to get this done. Come together, America. Again, we must.
