Sorry but you need a reasonable social consensus of values and behavior to have bipartisanship. The division in America is very real and cannot be bridged. Dead on.
I would say though that our side at least (more often, anyway) retains the virtues of respect and self-respect, honesty and hard work, and love of God, country and family.

I have not found Michael Reagan’s kinder, gentler pseudo- Republicanism compelling or effective.
I am all right with controlled righteous anger against manifest and dangerous evil.

That's what I did. It was just country music and awards. No politics. No anger. No name calling.Only because they know most country music fans are Republican who would switch it off if they started any Taylor Swift crap.
But tuning out is a good thing, I agree with that point.
Politics is never gonna be not "angry" ever again. We're in a cold civil war.

The only time they want to sing Kumbaya is when they are getting their ass kicked.
