The divisiveness has been caused by the narcissism of one person, and those who have fed into that need. Imagine finding enough people who will blindly follow a person (pied piper comes to mind) and those people would literally want to create anger, and resentment not only within a political party, but within families and communities: Stoked by the media on the right- and vilified against those on the Left who don't share a similar view point.
Raising the ante- through the use of labels.

and on..
Was it because Hillary was so mean with the word "deplorable"?
Was it due to the Evil ACA or Obamas' snub to Trump at the Press dinner or some other actions.
I mean if TDS is due to name calling- perhaps the ownership is from those who are casting all the infinites of names at the left and expecting 'no reply'?
Really- the old saying by many a farmer- is this.
If you plant Potatoes you get Potatoes.
Owning the libs and name calling is just a hallmark for supporting Trump and his failures. I'd imagine it gets frustrating to team Red Hat when the losses just keep racking up. When you watch your guy shouting all the names in the lists above and more- the hatred spewing out of his mouth, and then not have it seep into the mindset of a party- isn't all that surprising.
I'm actually more shocked that more hate motivated crimes against anyone involved in politics hasn't happened. But I digess, poor Paul Pelosi got a taste of it.
If you're out there spewing names and have a network that supports that with EVERY SHOW it airs, is it really surprising that people hate a man who is at the center of it?
I don't recall any of the great leaders in the past using those divisive rhetoric and being great leaders! And I hope post Nov the temperature turns down on those from both parties.
