    1) Obama *was* divisive, 2) I didn't vote for Trump, & 3) you are being divisive by insinuating that I'm a racist https://twitter.com/aravosis/status/881566416515854337 …

        1. if Obama was so divisive why did he win re-election handily, leave with super high approval ratings. Opposition was divisive not Obama.

        Mitch "We want this presidency to fail" on 1/20/09 was the divisive one.

        GOP hasn't come to terms with how they encouraged every rumor, controversy and innuendo about Obama regardless of policy. That was divisive

        Yes. Not many came out against the birtherism nonsense. They looked the other way and enjoyed the fact that gullible people believed it.

        The right hated Obama because he was educated, had a funny name, was charismatic, well spoken and yes black. So quit conflating the two men.

        This isn't a case where both sides-Dems s GOP-are equal and deserve equal blame. Media trying for middle of the road equal blame is mistake

        This is the story of the past 24 months, one is clearly different from the other in frequency, intensity, & mendacity. Press malpractice

        Obama was a brilliant, black president, who promoted equality 4 all. Only division there was bigots despised his light shining in their eyes

        Saying Obama was divisive is actually a good way of marking yourself as a racist. From my POV, he bent over backward NOT to be divisive.
