  • I doubt it would have applied to the cons.

    IOKIYAR.

    Newt and his team have been working to divide America since at least 1990. Actively. And it gets little mention. Meanwhile, plenty of reactionary centrists and nearly all of the mainstream media and of course the unhinged right wing would say things like “Obama is divisive” as some kind of serious analysis.

    Meanwhile, the cons have been intentionally trying to divide. And were not called on it every single day, as they should be.

    The GOPAC memo “Language: A Key Mechanism of Control” is something every American should be aware of, but I bet maybe 1% are.

    So if earlier asshole GOP POTUSes were to blurt this out before, it would probably get bothsidered and downplayed back then, too.
