Jason Chaffetz: [alleged] President-elect Biden calls for 'unity' – but where was 'unity' from Dems when Trump won?
fox ^ | Jason Chaffetz

Posted on 11/08/2020 7:21:21 AM PST by BenLurkin

Remember when Democrats called for peace and unity in the days following the 2016 election of Donald Trump? Neither do I.

In the months following, the “Resistance” was born. Clinton voters, many from outside my district, packed my town hall in the days following the presidential inauguration.

They carried out a well-documented plan to disrupt the meeting, displace many actual constituents, and shout me down. Similar acts of sabotage were replicated around the country, all following a script developed by Resistance activists.

But now in 2020, as Joe Biden proclaims himself the president-elect, it's a "time to heal." Convenient.

And just like that, “Resistance” is no longer in fashion. The rules have been rewritten.

When Democrats hold power, we must be unified, and our opposition must be silent. Not to be confused with the rules when Republicans hold power...

In reality, it's highly unlikely Trump supporters will replicate the violence, the hate, and the looting that characterized so many leftist protests over the last four years. But if Democrats believe Americans are obligated to passively stand by while they pursue an agenda that hurts American workers and limits their fundamental rights, they will be disappointed.

Americans will not be silent. Instead, we will take the wins President Trump left us and use them to defend against a leftist agenda we believe undermines the very core of American values.

The irony of Saturday's night of celebration for Democrats is that Election Day was actually quite devastating down-ballot. Though they believe they have claimed the presidency, Democrats failed at every other level.

On top of all of this bad news for Democrats is the reality that they can no longer depend on activist courts to enforce unpopular legislative priorities they are unable to pass in Congress.

Yes, every time I hear or read this new call for unity all I picture is the antichrist and those who bring him into power. Unity is his game.

They should be begging for forgiveness for all the division, hate,slander, violence and destruction they caused. Instead, they lecture us about unity and moderation?!

TRUE!

Remember, don't shoot off your mouth at work, or on public non-anonymous threads, and remember also that you do not have any liberal friends, even though you may think you still do.

I’ve been called every vile name under the sun for 4 years. This man called me a white supremacist. I’ve had my career taken away.

Thank God for Trump making me wealthy enough to retire early.

Unity for the dems means capitulating to their demands.

They don’t want unity they want submission.

That’s what it always means, “our way or else”

They're psychopaths, and they're a cult.

Fox News sucks.

And pointing out this sort of duplicity by the press is a side show. There are zillions of ways the truth can be twisted, this is just one of them.

By now the conclusion is clear, and further proof is not a good place to spend time. The venue her, Fox, is a purveyor 9and has been for a long time) or the unfair part of “fair and unfair” which they label “balanced.”

Once you figure out Charles Manson is not a good influence, what’s the point of probing all the tricks he used to get followers?

Substitute Goebbels if Manson is a parallel to far.

Irrelevant. The Dems always have Snowe and Murkowski to reply upon for anything important. They don’t even need the Georgia seats. They will go after them hard, of course... but they don’t need them.
