A new poll from Quinnipiac University found that most Americans believe that President Donald Trump is doing more to divide the country than to unite it.
Fifty-nine percent of voters said they believe Trump is encouraging white supremacist groups, and 64% believe such groups pose a threat to the country, according to the poll.


More than half of voters, 55%, said that there is too much prejudice in American society, while 40% said there is too much “political correctness.” Eighty-one percent responded that prejudice against minority groups is either “very serious” or “somewhat serious,” and 62% said the same of prejudice toward Jews.
Half of voters oppose removing Confederate statues from public spaces, while 39% support it, Quinnipiac reports, with support much higher (67%) among black voters.


Poll: Most Americans Believe Donald Trump Is Dividing the Country




I have to agree for no other reason then what I see here on this forum. I've seen more discourse in this part of the forum then I have when Obama was in office. Same with Clinton I've seen my share of poo throwing but this is just plain crazy.


And let's be honest it's just getting worse.

Division in the country is not Trumps fault


It is the rioting liberals and their excuse and support of groups like BLM and Antifa

Donald Trump literally just held a rally in Arizona so he could complain about the senators from Arizona.

Believing Trump is dividing the country does not mean you believe he's the only one dividing the country. But this deflection suggests that you're unwilling to admit that a man who calls his political opponents "haters and losers" is doing little to bring people together. Which is odd. It's kind of like denying the sky exists.

Complaining about establishment politicians like McCain is why Trump won his nomination and the presidency

Doing daily things to provoke a whole party and part of the party he is part of... That is not presidential. He is targeting the american citizens and the elected politicians. It'd be one thing if Trump was very calm in his attacks towards his enemies, but he goes at them relentlessly. That is, point blank, non presidential. None of the other candidates from the republican party would have divided this country like Trump is, even though some of them are even more conservative than Trump.

No point in reasoning with individuals that point the blame at Antifa while ignoring the fact that Trump spent over an hour lambasting both Arizona senators in Arizona, calling himself the victim of Charlottesville when a woman actually died, childishly calling out people who he's smarter than for, and promising to pardon a man in the very state that the voters kicked him out of.

Trump is clearly dividing the country. You're either on his side or you're not. Look at all the people who were once his friends. Sad!

Donald Trump has condemned white supremacy more than Barrack Obama did.

...so Barrack Obama must be racist.
