Would the US be less divided if people took the time to understand peoples differing political and why they have them instead of attacking?

It's sad we got to the point, where if someone has different political views then you, instead of trying to understand and why they have the views they have, we resort to cheap attacks and name calling. Both Republicans and Democrats are guilty of attacking others with different political views. If you want to persuade someone to agree with your views, you don't straight up attack them as an evil person, you try and understand their views and why they have them, then try to convince them why your view is better. If they still don't agree with your views after valid arguments, then the best you can do is respect their views and move on, attacking them will not help you in convincing other's your view (s) is/are better or the very least respect your view (s).
