All the conservative / liberal bashing needs to stop if we, the US as a nation, are going to move forward and solve the problems currently plaguing the country and the world.. like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still.

bionic 19,151 Posted January 19 'Unity' is dead. Why would we want to unite with millions of people who literally supported and attempted to overthrow the constitution and install their own dictator? The Dems always fall back onto this (alongside 'moving on') and its the party's biggest weakness. buy bionic 5 1 Quote Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter
bionic 19,151 Posted January 19 You'd think Biden would have learned from Obama's mistake in doing this exact same thing (a failure which led to Trump), seeing as he was VP during it. buy bionic Quote Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

Also, those vote for Trump don't hate or despise democracy, many simply vote Republican much like Liberal voters ... Simply following party politics gets you leadership like Trump.. and it goes both ways. Edited January 19 by Woolfsmck like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still.

Sorry I definitely don't mean to tar all Trump voters/REpublicans/Conservatives with the same brush, I have voted Republican before and would again in the future (minimal choice where I am). But even if just 200 or so people stormed the Capitol, thousands if not millions support it and wished it would succeed, even if they'd never do it themselves. This is something we can't unify with. The pervasive ideology rather than those who action it. buy bionic 1 Quote Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter
PunkTheFunk 110,202 Posted January 19 The "Unity" ship sailed a long time ago. American society is deeply divided and it's going to take a lot more than empty words like "unity" and "healing" to fix it. 2 1 Quote Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

He's not pandering unity for unities sake, he's literally trying to do his best to hold the country together. He can do that while he cleans up Trump's mess & helps push through meaningful legislation. Unity is locking up the capitol terrorists. Unity is holding those in congress who tried to divide us, accountable. speak softly and carry a big stick. Purr more, hiss less. 2 Quote Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

MJHolland 12,717 Posted January 19 Like I understand where the anti-unity-rhetoric people are coming from but... ... what else do you want Biden to say here? That it’s time for liberals to start punching conservatives whenever we see them? Unity rhetoric > divisive rhetoric any day 1 Quote Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter
