I was raised in france. These are my grandparents. These are my parents and this is mean. Fighting both isis and as of. The 1st of a 2 part epic tale of the remarkable simon. The father the son and the. One on out is iraq. America says more just your knowledge of the machete fortune recent history of politics undermined by causes and divisions consensus among most anything to treat so whats we can devolve once i was seen together. And work at the disco belief in the 2nd of 2 special reports. As being too invested. Former special counsel Robert Muller recently appeared before the u. S. Congress to answer questions about his investigation of President Trump and russian interference in the 2016 president ial campaign president has repeatedly claimed your ford found there was no obstruction that it completely and totally exonerated. That is not what your report said is it. Correct it is not what the report said. The report did not include he did not commit obstruction of justice that is correct for Many Democrats there are strong grounds for impeaching donald trump but with republicans remaining firmly in his corner its becoming symbolic of americas partisan divide its starting to look like youre having desperately tried and failed to make a legal case against the president you made a political case instead you put it in a paper sack lit on fire dropped it on our porch rang the doorbell and ran i dont think you will review a report that is as thorough as fair as consistent as the report that we have in front of us history is repeating itself i would say the trumpet ministration is contrast competition with what happened in the Nixon Administration john dean is a former white House Counsel whose 973 testimony helps seal the fate of president Richard Nixon in watergate he also appeared before congress recently and sounded a warning about partisan division and incivility theres too much polarization in the sunset in the questioning sitting here and the shots that get taken it witnesses President Trump exacerbates Political Polarization in the u. S. But it is the result of a social sorting process between the parties that began with the passage of civil rights legislation in the 1960 s. Its culminated in the formation of democratic and republican parties made up of distinctive racial ethnic and religious groups we are at the inclusion of basically a 60 year political journey and its a disaster. Because the parties have divided over fundamental visions of the National Character the drug man is a senior fellow in the Political Reform Program at the think tank the new america the Republican Party basically sees the True National identity of america as in the past a time when america was a White Christian nation its a traditionalist vision and then we have another Party Democratic party as a very different vision of america its a more secular place its more progressive and it celebrates diversity so the fundamental problem today is that politics is no longer about battles over resources but about battles over what it means to be an american yeah the 2 sides are casting each other as fundamentally unamerican so pal could you possibly compromise with them. This clash over values has led to the sorting of the parties along geographic lines in the 2016 election trump one decisively in the 2300 counties that make up small town in Rural America but in cities Hillary Clinton beat trump in a landslide. Continuing our investigation into toxic partisanship in the us by focusing on North Carolina as a microcosm of the nation we headed for charlotte the decision in this state. Some areas of the states very you know its hard hard for democrat to get elected some and now the cities its very hard for a republican to get elected and in a metropolitan area is a group of people that tend to be highly educated more moderate and liberal in their views white and black and the war is becoming whiter and older and areas are becoming more diverse 8 percent of North Carolinas population is foreign born 51 percent from latin america i know low benton caller who owns this bakery immigrated from colombia 1000 years ago when truong decided to run for president as one i got involved with we had democratic party. A latino. All 59 percent of North Carolinas latino population is u. S. Born but there are about 100000 undocumented immigrants im sure a good thing change once trump was elected yes a lot of families you know the father some way from their kids in charlotte Illegal Immigrants were being deported with the help of the local sheriff was working with federal immigration and Customs Enforcement ice under a program called 287 g. So benton corin a group of local activists helped elect a new sheriff basically expand the reach of ice and deputized his local sheriffs deputies to place foreign nationals entering mobile proceedings the 287 g. We well aware of what the problems were with that and how women were suffering in afraid to go places children were not attending school out of fear that something would happen during the school day before the sheriffs election in may 2018 activists hit the streets with a score card highlighting the differences between the incumbent Erwin Carmichael and his challengers the American Civil Liberties union also ran radio ads carmichaels challengers vatanen and they pledged to stop working with trumps deportation for Gary Mcfadden a homicide detective for 27 years one becoming the 1st africanamerican sheriff ever in charlotte and his 1st day in office he ended his departments involvement in 287 we already had communities with mistrust you know no matter what happens in a community the Community Says you do not tell the police and to 87 g. Just compounds the problem because of fear that you will be deported or youll be targeted by do you think a lot of folks got caught up in the deportation process who shouldnt have been because of 287 yes a lot of people got caught off a small driving with no license seatbelt violation as long as you got into the criminal Justice System he will part of the dea. Poor taste in process ice responded to mcfaddens decision to end cooperation by mountain an aggressive Enforcement Effort in charlotte accusing him of being soft on crime so i take this did you see that there is a one out of here is dangerous you found in other sheriffs of North Carolinas largest urban counties are now battling legislation pushed by republicans that would force them to cooperate with ice or be removed from office do you think theres any way to compromise with people who favor aggressive vice enforcement absolutely not how do you compromise on taking the father out of the home in leaving a mother with her children destitute with no support theres no way to compromise there is no pop up there doing the same thing that they did in slavery they just picked another group of people to do it now you can keep it constantly growing by making people disposable when you get tired or using the name brand name the enemy and you send him back to mexico or Central America like republicans in washington d. C. Republicans in North Carolina representing rural districts have been accused of fueling partisan tensions by pushing policies on immigration and other issues opposed by urban residents public and legislature in North Carolina says bigfooting the citys because the cities are more liberal and more democratic and theyre conducting policies that like whats driving that their fences on immigration very sharp difference about whether its good for the country to have a lot of people coming in from latin america countries or it is somehow rody americans authenticity in some cases it is economic competition what do you think is at the root of the urban rural divide so we have one half of the state thats dynamic and its growing fast and the young people are leaving the small town the royer has to come work in raleigh or charlotte because thats where the jobs of the future are and the other half you have a dying North Carolina the royals are really struggling with economic decline. And of course youre going to have a huge harben world abide if thats thats the case. To better understand the economic laws that theyre about to buy we headed west to the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains its an area with conservative leanings rasmussen. For most of the 20th century could also find coming textile mills and furniture factories in small towns here every rivaled industry in the american midwest but nearly 19 eighties all began to change. So how long have you been involved in Economic Development or about 30 years Chuck Moseley witnessed firsthand the decline of the textile and Furniture Industries in the brook county town of val d. S. And the surrounding area we had 7000 people that will be here during the day and are a little down but now weve probably got 2000 people at work in our town and so thats quite a difference this is the wall that you and plant and they down about 81 or 82 they they were one time raved about faith in the world and i was reading business what kind of impact did that have on the economy here and major impact because that was our number one source of income for valleys in the neighboring town of the northern Caldwell County also lost thousands of jobs in the Furniture Industry due to imports from asia and the outsourcing of production to the region we were so focused on furniture and on textiles people were trying to do anything else so when those jobs left you know they just had to take whatever was left over you know i saw that actually the Unemployment Rate has improved a lot theyre finding jobs the biggest problem is that theyre barely above minimum wage so this looks like a shutdown plan weve got all over the area here guarantee. I wouldnt be surprised if i walk out of it and live probably 10000 jobs in the Furniture Industry here to what extent did were. The trade deals for the economic problems that theyre face you hear a lot you know if they hey wait a minute lets bring that industry back and do it in america. So a lot of resentment among workers here that the politicians let them down you know at the coffee shop that was thats all they are more interested in then the dollar from all street than they are the people who are making the furniture and the families theyre raising in this country. During the 2016 president ial race Donald Trumps campaign targeted North Carolina voters in hard hit and just really are living through the greatest steps in the history of our world a truck that ministry will stop the jobs from leaving and trouble even North Carolina. Trump receive 67 percent of the vote burke county and 73 percent Caldwell County record levels of support for the republican president ial candidates trample saying stuff like bring manufacturing back they care about the Little People support for trumping the stalls or for americas past where evan invalides at near is classic car crews and on friday night i think trough 2 are great people or whatever but his policies are working for your average american i think a lot of people were looking for a big change and trump is not a politician he doesnt look at things the way
