Regardless of how things turn out when all of the votes are counted, we have to acknowledge is that this country is deeply divided. Half of our neighbors view the world very differently than we do. This leaves us with two choices. Either we figure out how to work together for the good of everyone despite our differences, or we continue to escalate the division and the tribalism that has plagued us in recent years until we distrust each other completely, until we view those who do not share our values with utter contempt. The inclusive American society that we took for granted is slipping away, and I don’t know how we’re going to get it back.
