Public Believes You Can't Govern By Dividing People

If you have to win a campaign by dividing people, you’re not going to be able to govern. You won’t be able to unite them later if that’s how you start. -- President Obama
The chart above is from a new Rasmussen Poll -- done on October 22nd and 23rd of a random national sample of 1,000 likely voters, with a 3 point margin of error. It shows that a large majority of Americans (63%) agree with President Obama that a candidate that wins by dividing Americans (Trump) cannot effectively govern. President Bush offered a similar statement also. 
Trump squeaked out a win in 2016 by appealing to the hatred of a minority of Americans. He is now having trouble trying to govern, and wants to blame everyone else for that (even members of his own party). But the truth is that he killed his own chance to govern effectively by promoting a policy of division (and continues to do that).
