Political divides, normally, never reach the point as we are reading on here. They can be discussed and understood. The raw feelings that are being played out right now, are not political, and I might add, importantly, have no political solution.
Political divides have always existed and although they played well, Lincoln, Hamilton, and Jefferson are examples of how ugly they become and at least 3 people that hated politics and the media demons of their own times. The example you gave demonstrated how they are played even at the local level. The challenge for us enjoying the rest of our lives in TV is to discuss and not practice with the very neighbors that help make TV great.
