With the stark division between left/right (Democrats/Republicans, progressives/conservatives, whatever you want to call it) is the "United" States over? I might be pessimistic, but it seems that the disconnect between the citizens is too great to fix. I don't think I'm alone in thinking this, but what are other opinions?

funny thing is there is no real division between the DNC/GOP, they are pretty much a uniparty coalition, it is the backdoor deals they do thats why we have the legislations we do now,(and are not privy to what the DNC and gop do behind the scenes or secretely) and people like trump. the division we see at the voter level, is just bs culture war by the elites to divide the parties, so they cannot turn against the uniparty. Aside from people like madamhi, aoc, and bernie, both parties are just doing performative politics. once in a while the DNC is allowed to throw plebs a bone: positive legislation, but not to the point it hurts the billionaire,eg taxes, or thier businesses.

the amount of DINOS in the DNC, is enough to tell you that they are well tolerated, the gop however cant afford to have any RINOS though.
