CMV: I think that American society is rapidly disintegrating.

From my point of view (that being a German's or European's POV) it seems that both sides of the political spectrum in the US, or in other words both the Democratic party and the Republican party move further away from the political middle with each day that passes. 
Not once have I seen so much controversy surrounding a single president in history.
Mr. Trump and the part of the media which opposes him are fighting a battle of lies and misinformation: when Mr. Trump called Baltimore a rat infested city the media and some politicians were quick to call it him a racist and on other occasions he and his allies in the media would bent the facts to their liking to paint the democrats as communist "anti-Americans".
The above mentioned points create a growing divide in American society, whilst eliminating a common middle ground between both political sides, which in turn accelerates a divided country.
It seems to me that this is a growing problem which will be hard to solve in the coming years.

We fought a literal civil war and came out the other side OK.  Culture war clashes over things like the Vietnam War were far more strident, including student demonstrators getting shot and the like.  Lying media is nothing new, and Yellow Journalism got us into wars on false pretexts with their sensationalizing and misleading reports.

Things are annoying right now, but not more so than they've been many times in the past. We've got some political problems, but they'll probably be wiped away in the next election. The internet amplifies all the stupidest and most sensationalistic voices, but that's not a great representation of how normal people are feeling most of the time.
