'Cause I'd rather deal with Obama breaking anrom to get us BACK to normal than just having civility die because it's not civil to try and change it.
I think the issue here is that the target of the efforts to bring back civility is Trump. We could all agree that he lacks any sort of tact. However, he isn't the cause of it all. There needs to be an effort, a bipartisan one, of former presidents and retired Representatives and Senators, that comes together to decry the current climate. Not Trump. Not McConnell, Ryan, Pelosi, or Schumer. The entire political environment needs to be targeted in order for this to be brought back on course.
