So when he calls the other side names and makes threats, he is practical and gruff. His practical message was incoherent; it was more of an erring of grievances, conspiracy theories, and wild policy ideas that he seemed to have come up with while speaking. I can't argue with the fact that it appealed to people, but you can't say it wasn't divisive because it was practical and gruff. Those two things don't rule out divisiveness. BTW, I voted Republican in every election until Trump, and the reason why I didn't vote for him was due to how divisive he was. I think you just happen to agree with his side of the divide.
