The election of 2016 did nothing to heal the divisions in America. The social left who believed it their duty to fundamentally transform America into a more European socialist-style State were morally outraged that the backwards, deplorable, and irredeemable bigots of flyover country had somehow pulled enough votes together to vote their favorite racist into office. And they were quick to tell those redneck racists exactly what they thought about them. There were protests and riots. People they thought might have voted for the other side were attacked on the streets. The roads were blocked so well that even ambulances could not get through. People died.
