Unity, Democrats Say. Public Relations, I say

Progressive - you are greedy for not letting me spend your money

Let us start off with this. It gets right to the heart of the matter:  Democrats Want Unity Only on Their Terms.

Many Trump haters have been lying all along about President Donald Trump, what he stands for, what his record has been and who his supporters are. Now they tell us they want unity. What Trump wants — and want his supporters want — is for America to reclaim its greatness, its robust liberty tradition, its prosperity, the integrity of its borders, fair trade deals with foreign nations and its military strength. He has made great strides in achieving these goals.

…They have deliberately misrepresented his words to paint him as a bigot. They have claimed his immigration policies are driven by racism, rather than a desire to protect our borders and ensure the orderly process of legal immigration. They have relentlessly hammered this into the national psyche to where millions upon millions of Americans not only believe it but also believe racism animates all Trump supporters. Just remember there was a time in the recent past when both parties agreed that we must control our borders and prosecute illegal immigration.

…That’s not going to happen, because we believe your policies would devastate this nation and transform its fundamental character. We don’t intend to resist you as a matter of revenge but because we believe your ideas are destructive. We must be personally cordial and civil, but let’s quit indulging the fantasy that we can unify on policy, as our visions couldn’t be more opposite.

Sure, we’ve heard the calls for Unity since the Democrats are all convinced that Biden has won the Presidency. Yet, we Conservatives and Trump supporters/voters have been targeted for the entirety of his Administration and called every name in the book, put onto lists, targeted for job loss, and calls to be banished from society altogether. Those actions have only grown since the election with the “Trump Accountability Project” which wanted to make sure that Trump supporters would be harassed after Biden is installed even to the point of ensuring “they’d never work again”.  Nothing new – the actions of Personal Destruction but at a much louder scale than has been in the past.

So, I figured a few links might bring this to the fore:

“I recognize that there are those who believe that it’s time to discard the myth—that an examination of America’s past and an even cursory glance at today’s headlines show that this nation’s ideals have always been secondary to conquest and subjugation, a racial caste system and rapacious capitalism, and that to pretend otherwise is to be complicit in a game that was rigged from the start. And I confess that there have been times during the course of writing my book, as I’ve reflected on my presidency and all that’s happened since, when I’ve had to ask myself whether I was too tempered in speaking the truth as I saw it, too cautious in either word or deed, convinced as I was that by appealing to what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature I stood a greater chance of leading us in the direction of the America we’ve been promised.”

I wonder why he is only saying this now and not during his two Presidential campaigns and his campaign to be a US Senator (/sarc)

These are just a FEW of the posts I have from the last few days – there are plenty more out there (feel free to post more in the comments when you find them) and these AREN’T the most egregious either (like the re-education camps, the “Truth and reconciliation Tribunals” (e.g., think Mao’s Cultural Revolution and Long March).
