Former Vice President Joe Biden’s closing pitch – one sure to be amplified tonight by Sen. Kamala Harris during her debate with incumbent Vice President Mike Pence – is that the Democratic ticket will end America’s divisions.

Unfortunately, recently declassified information suggests that the catalyst for much of the country’s present hyper-partisanship was engineered by the party’s previous presidential standard-bearer: Hillary Clinton. In the summer of 2016, with help from allies like then-CIA Director John Brennan – and, evidently, the knowledge of President Obama and Mr. Biden – Mrs. Clinton set in motion the highly polarizing hoax that Donald Trump and his campaign team were colluding with the Russians.

Mr. Trump tweeted last night that he was going to declassify “all” the relevant documents, with “no redactions.” We’ll see what happens on that front. In the meantime, more bitter fractiousness seems in prospect, not less.
