Really weak article. Your typical bothsidesism and unity nonsense. He's talking about how the country was united to face the enemy after 9/11. Talk about fish memory. What enemy is he talking about? Did he forget about the disastrous Iraq war and the division it made? The patriot act!? NSA surveillance, the 2008 economic crisis, etc. Most of the problems today can be traced to the Bush administration, and the aftermath of 9/11.

The author is clearly referring to the time immediately following 9/11, which is by far the most united these states have been since WW2.

I'd argue many larger problems trace back to Nixon than Bush.

That's like... 1/8th of the article and misses the point entirely. But it is also too long for it's conclusion.
