I think we may have had a thread on this before but I was thinking about it again today.
@Sinn Fein posted the new Buttigieg ad in the Buttigieg thread.
It's inspiring and hopeful and talks about he's ready to "Pick up the pieces of our divided nation and lead us toward real action"
"Ready to gather up an American majority hungry for change and that is done with division.
"We will fight when we must fight. But I will never let us get so wrapped up in fighting that we start to think fighting is the point. The point is an America defined not by exclusion but by belonging."
At the same time, he draws applause asking the people to imagine waking up to the first day in America where Donald Trump is defeated.
I'm a peacemaker at heart. It's how I'm wired. I hate it when people I know and care about aren't getting along. I don't like it when strangers aren't getting along.
So I'm an easy sell for "uniting". But I wonder how much of it's really possible.
And I wonder how much of it we really even want?
Or is it really just uniting the Democrats where anything the Republicans feel pain with is a good thing?
I mean on the other side, I don't think Donald Trump makes any illusions of "uniting the country".
I just wonder if it's even possible? And even if we want it?
What do you think?
