YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPolitics is dividing couples across the country. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, the hosts of The Young Turks, show you the ’Trump effect’s’ impact on divorce rates. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“After a bruising presidential race against Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump used his victory speech in the early hours of 9 November last year to attempt a tone shift.
"I say it is time for us to come together as one united people," he said. "It's time."
That appeal for unity – however laudable – appears to have fallen on deaf ears as new research shows that one in 10 US break-ups are now the result of political disagreements.
Even more staggering, almost one in four couples said "they and their partner have disagreed or argued about politics more than ever" since Trump was elected.
These are just two of the findings uncovered by pollsters at Wakefield Research (and reported by FOX Business) that paint a fractious picture of American romance suffering under the tumult of a divisive and unconventional leader.
"In my 35 years of matrimonial practice, I have never seen so many couples split over a political disagreement as with the Trump election. The essence is: you must agree with me," divorce lawyer Louis Brenner told FOX Business.”
