Two weeks after President-elect Donald Trump's victory, a record 77 percent of Americans believe the nation is divided, according to Gallup.
It also found the public is evenly split on whether Trump will do more to unite or divide the country. But both sides are equally convinced that they're right.
Those opinions are likely coming out at Thanksgiving tables across the country.
NBC 5 spent the day with one Fort Worth family to find out how they're disagreeing with love, and moving forward together.
Every cook knows how to run her own kitchen and the Buscho family of Fort Worth is no different.
"Get the other side," Dawn Buscho told her daughter, Ariel Buscho, as she basted the turkey. "I'm concentrating on this side first," Ariel replied.
"We get in these arguments and we end up laughing about it eventually," said Dawn.

The latest news from around North Texas.
Lately the arguments have had one theme, differing views about where our country is headed.
"It's been kind of difficult, especially being the only one who believes what I believe," said Ariel Buscho.
The 24-year-old voted for Hillary Clinton. Her parents both went Trump.
"I try to steer her to what I think, but she has her own mind and her own will," said Ariel’s father, Robert Buscho.
It's lead to tough discussions around their dining room table, about divisions in our country.
"People have been writing 'make America white again,'" said Ariel.
"That's always been there," Robert answered. "That's not Trump telling them to be racist. It has nothing to do with one man. One man can't control that."
"No, but what I'm saying is his words have inspired them to come out more and to be more vocal with their views, which is honestly making a lot of our Americans, people who are brown, black, white, they’re terrified," said Ariel.
The conversation turned to immigration.
"Everybody is important, and everybody is human and we deserve to be treated equally. But we still have to be careful because there are people that are coming into our country and they want to do harm," said Dawn Buscho.
In a family of four daughters, the role of women comes up, too. Ariel was deeply offended by some of Trump's words toward women throughout the campaign.
"No, I can't defend a lot of things he said. I can't defend them. Trying to defend them is wrong," said Robert.
"That's right, it is wrong and thank you," Ariel answered.
Robert says he takes the bad with the good, hoping to fix what's broken, bring back jobs and secure our country.
"We can do better and there's something better out there,” said Robert. “In all these years, Republicans and Democrats they haven't gotten us there yet. I believe you can take a chance with him and let's see what he can do."
But the biggest lesson from the Buscho table, is to listen.
"Hear each other, rather than just shout over each other at all times," Ariel said.
To remember what matters, and to keep laughing.
"I love you," Ariel said.
"Love you, too,” Robert answered.
