Abraham Lincoln said over a hundred years ago a house divided will never stand. So why can't politicians get a clue? on both sides of the isle?

Because it’s ridiculous to act like that can be enough to not be divided. It takes two to tango, but only one to make enemies. Only one side needs to hold irreconcilable differences in order to divide the country. You need to defeat the ideas before you can unite.

Probably because one side is trying to throw the other side in jail to keep them from running for office.

In a democracy its literally almost impossible to be united especially as a politician.

You can't win office if you can't point out flaws effectively and make your opponent look bad in order for you to get elected instead.

In fact, you can. You could both say what you're going to support and try to achieve. The trouble is that lying about your opponent works better. Which, I suppose, mean I agree with you.

He was paraphrasing Jesus, who said it two THOUSAND years ago. This is not a new problem.

Politicians don't care about the house. They just want to get away with as much furniture as possible.

Cause Republicans are batshit insane and democrats are spineless cowards for not standing up to their bullshit.
