Why Republicans Are on the Verge of Fistfights
www.politico.com
A historian who studies political violence and the runup to the Civil War explains why congressmen are getting ready to brawl.

This is not opinion or leftist. It’s news about fighting in the party, which is factual, recent, and on-topic.

Removal of this post is admitting that this sub is only about being a safe space for conservatives to circle-jerk while ignoring reality.

I encourage a discussion about the recent conflicts inside the party, how that might impact the party moving forward, and what can be done to prevent this divide.

    And while that may sound like a joke, it’s not. I’m dead serious that I think it’s a tragedy that men are now completely cut off from that beautiful, peaceful feeling one gets from reducing his beef with another man down to physical pain, and then ensuring both men hurt a little, and the tension just being gone afterward.

    I don’t think it’s right to view “descending to blows” to be the worst thing that’s happened in congress lately.
