I recently saw an ad from former VP Joe Biden’s campaign which claimed people should vote for him as he will unify the nation. Thank God I wasn’t drinking milk at the time as it would have shot out of my nose from laughter. To be fair though, both the Democrats and Republicans claim their candidates will unify the country. Everyone wants it but on their terms or not at all. As nice as unity may sound, the reality is the country is not ready or willing yet to unite, there is simply too many fundamental differences between right and left.
To illustrate, whereas the right embraces capitalism, Christianity, the constitution, and conservative values (e.g., respect for law and order, citizenship, patriotism, strong work ethic), the left embraces Socialism, entitlements, globalism, and social engineering. Whereas the right relishes the freedoms spelled out in our Constitution, the left wants to rewrite it for the purposes of more control. For example, when President Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett as Supreme Court justice, the Democrats threatened to expand the size of the court and pack it with liberals. This was tried years ago under FDR, and was thankfully rejected. Even the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a well known darling of the left, said nine justices was a suitable number.
These two distinctly different ideologies ultimately represent incompatible behaviors, moral values, and priorities. The media refutes this and would have us believe everyone is basically the same. This is simply not so as the chasm between left and right is too wide and cannot be bridged.
Some would say the split was caused by President Trump. I would argue it began during President Obama’s administration. Republicans may not have liked Mr. Obama, but they didn’t burn down any cities, loot stores, cause riots and hurt people, or conduct massive protests. They just waited for the next election and voted accordingly.
The big question though is, what will happen should either side win. Should former VP Biden win, a new resistance movement will likely emerge in the Congress by the Republicans, using tactics invented by the Democrats. However, should President Trump win re-election, the Democrats will continue to resist the president in the Congress, but the loony left will likely go berserk and try to burn the nation to the ground. This will likely be the closest we come to Civil War. Shootings will likely occur. Plain and simple, it will be ugly.
Should the Democrats lose both the Congress and the White House, look for them to split into two parties; one for the far left and one for the old-school moderates. When this happens, it will take the Democrats a long time for them to return to power, if at all.
So, when you hear a candidate say they want to unify the country, please do not take them seriously. It is not in the American character to play as a united team, unless we face war or some other serious calamity.
As I like to say around this time of year; fasten your seat belts, it is going to be a bumpy ride.
Keep the Faith!
P.S. – Also, I have a NEW book, “Before You Vote: Know How Your Government Works”, What American youth should know about government, available in Printed, PDF and eBook form. This is the perfect gift for youth!

An A.B. of Tarpon Springs, Florida wrote…
“I would never unify with a liberal, corrupt, demon possessed DEM. if I knew what would happen to TRUMP and America I would have been for murder of many. That is the ONLY solution that makes sense, either way, as the DEMS will continue to get worse. The main bunch of them need to be indicted, brought before a military tribunal, convicted, taken to GITMO and publicity executed for crimes against humanity of TREASON. Then maybe this country can finally settle down when the liberals find out they were wrong on EVERYTHING, or they can go to jail. I never want to see another DEM running again. I grew to be nice to all and never think this way but the HATE filled demon possessed LIBS have made me this way. Not only me, but my daughter, as she sees her generation all messed up and full of HATE. We have dropped family members who thankfully all moved out of Fl. My sister and her husband chased down a daughter who went to No. Carolina and has 2 children. the other daughter went to N.Y. with a now ex husband, and she is remarried and hates everything about American while both make over $500,000 a year. They no longer have any values, morals, NOTHING. They ALL vote their way of life away….so I will never see them again.The last she said last year is how I will regret ever voting for TRUMP and I said she will regret not voting. I told her I am done with her hate , and hung up…never to speak to her again… TOUGH LOVE. Actually I hate her . She broke my Mother’s heart years ago when she had a NUKE NEWT on her bumper of her car. Mama stood there and cried but said nothing to her and told me to say nothing. KI told her after mama died how she crushed her and she said I am lying denying as she never had that. (((((( One of the highlights of my Mothers life, was me introducing her to NEWT.)))))) But of course she did. DEMS ALL lie about everything. They don;t have a grasp of honestly or memory, They make up what seems right to them. its either I have a heart attack or break off. M daughter kept telling me to be nice to her . Now she realize this year how horrible they are and told her cousin living in N.Y. off, made a real fool of her right on her f.b. page, as she is smarter than I am, and really knows how to did. She told the other one how she is a bimbo loser knowing its over with them. I can tell you first hand, BLOOD IS NOT THICKER THAN WATER. We had a small family to begin with but our friends are far better than family. My sister will not be in heaven nor her daughters, but I will see my Mother again.Many friends are there and I will see them again. No body can tell me I have to forgive someone who has hate and does not want forgiveness. I know what GOD did to evil people, and Ii remember what Jesus did to the money changers. I also know they took out some books of the Bible where Jesus punished the evil.”
