AS OF 2019

But there are many others divisions. Age divides. Religious divides. Race divides. Gender divides. College divides.

In 2019, Republicans would be most unhappy if their child married a transgender person. Democrats would be most unhappy if their child married a Republican.

There are many great articles about how Republicans and Democrats are at odds now and also how much common ground there might be.
