[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know how this concept came to be and when the media and other people began referring to us as a country of red and blue?

I thought it might have started with Trump in 2016?

It reminds me of that Dr. Seuss book with the “butter side up” people fighting those who butter the bottom of the toast aka the “butter side down” people.

Red versus blue seems to create more division and fear and seems like BS.

For the past 20 to 25 years, our two major parties have utilized "journalism" tainted with political bias to their advantages by using fear tactics to separate two "sides" like they have never been separated before. The Fox News crowd will vote for a light pole to keep an evil Dem candidate from winning and the MSNBC crowd will vote for a mailbox in order to keep the evil GOP candidate out of office. These careless voting tactics are why we've experienced a continual decline in the quality of leadership in our Federal Government. It's impossible to ignore.[/quote]
