The Greatest Threat to the U.S. Is Not Russia or China: The Hill

The greatest threat to the U.S. is not Russia or China; it is internal polarization, writes The Hill. As the presidential elections approach, it increasingly appears that America is already in a state of civil war.

Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene stated, “We need a national divorce. We need to separate into red states and blue states. The political battle among presidential candidates has pitted ordinary Americans against each other.”

American society has become divided into liberal and conservative camps, and even relatives with differing political views prefer not to engage with one another. According to an expert cited in the article, only five percent of Americans reacted negatively to the idea of marrying someone from a different political party in 1960. That number is now 38 percent.
