Can we stop pretending there’s going to be “unity” in American politics?

The first step in unity would be to recognize the concern that there may be potential voter fraud and agree to an investigation. If Biden is so sure he won, there should be no issues in agreeing to this. You cannot claim unity when you have an "us vs them" mentality; you have to work together and negotiate at times without doing so out of spite. A leader should be doing whats best for the country, not for them.

See, I thought this about Trump four years ago. “There was no collusion, I won fair and square, so by all means, let’s get to the bottom of this.”

Since when has there ever been unity in America in the near-250 years it has been around? Even when a President has called for unity, many people would never listen. We live in a country that has been filled to the brim with division, from day one. Riots and unrest are nothing new in America. I have little hope that it will ever stop.
