OK, first let us address Bill Maher's all-too-easy-to-do concession of royalty with no logic except he will not call anyone "Your majesty!"  Bill thinks it makes him smart and free to go against an apolitical entity that guides the political arm of the country to save it from stupid political and emotional mistakes like leaving Irish to starve with potatoes, as Queen Elizabeth has done in the United Kingdom.  Bill you are wrong.  They are a draw of tourists that bring over $550miliion into the UK versus the $300m allowance.  And all those buildings you list are USED for tourists and business one time or another.  Not to forget the charity work done by royalty.  What have yu done for charity lately Bill?  OK, you donate a few dollars, how much of your personal time have you donated?  Zero?

Now to my message.  Unity is possible. 

Divided nations do not accomplish great, or even good things.  They are inefficient, wasting a lot of time and energy on anger and hate.

Complex ideas (respecting others, civility, trust, states rights, marijuana, sanctuary cities, mass incarceration, law enforcement, policing policies and training, justice, free speech, media bias and honesty, controlling and managing guns), challenges (balanced budgets, welfare where needed, caring for the weak, health care, infrastructure, defense spending, treatment of allies and accords or deals, trade relations, diplomacy), and human relationships (immigrants, religious rights vs discrimination, LGBTQ rights, treatment of ethnic peoples, racism, extremism-White Nationalists, neo-Nazism, KKK, hate) are natural and reasonable to live with. 

Obviously simple, fast, blunt, hard "solutions" like a wall on the border, a Muslim travel ban, disrespecting allies, trade wars and sanctions, are not true "solutions."  These acts DIVIDE not only the World, but these "solutions" divide America.
