Camille Cole - Trump Continues Divisive Rhetoric as Midterms Arrive

Summary: With the United States Midterm elections coming up, Donald Trump has struck into his highest gear with rallies and continuing to try and promote the far-right as much as possible. Even with the pipe bombs and the mass shooting in Pittsburgh, he continues to blame the left as much as possible and create a divided nation. While this divisiveness of the nation has always existed, the president continues to make this divide more and more strict and hateful.

Analysis: This is a country of people, not a country of Republicans. The President is continuing to try and rip away the social citizenship of anybody who does not agree with him. Even when there are times in the world when the country should be brought together as one, Trump continues to make things a political issue to blame the left. This is exactly what George Washington was trying to prevent. He didn’t want parties because he wanted us to remain unified in purpose, not divided in belief.
