More than 150 years after the end of the Civil War, America remains a bitterly divided nation.
That being said, however, there is one thing—besides Howard Schultz being an entitled prick—that we can all agree on: @realDonaldTrump has great genes.
Not only is he the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency, Trump also has the best brain.
That galaxy brain enables him to know more about the military than the generals do, despite never having served.
In addition, it gives him greater insight into the threats facing the US than the country's top intelligence officials possess.
Thus far, Trump's gut feelings have served him (and us) quite well—as evidenced by his soaring approval rating and the historically high Dow Jones.

Elsewhere…
Sarah Huckabee Sanders claimed that God wanted Trump to be president.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said she believes God wanted President Donald Trump to win the 2016 election, the Christian Broadcasting Network reported on Wednesday.
"I think God calls all of us to fill different roles at different times and I think that he wanted Donald Trump to become president, and that's why he's there," Sanders told CBN's David Brody and Jennifer Wishon, according to a transcript of the interview provided by CBN.
"I think he has done a tremendous job in supporting a lot of the things that people of faith really care about," Sanders added.
Meanwhile...
Steve Bannon said he was doing the Lord's work in the White House.
Former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon said in a new documentary that he didn't enjoy his time in the Trump administration, but said he was "doing the Lord's work."
USA Today reported that Bannon is the subject of a documentary, "The Brink," which will premiere Wednesday at Sundance Film Festival. The film focuses on Bannon's life since departing the White House in mid-2017.
"There's no glamour to the job," Bannon said in the documentary. "I hated every second I was there. The West Wing has bad karma to it. They say, 'Because you were doing bad stuff!' But I was doing the Lord's work."
Christ, what an asshole!
