It's a new administration. Can we move on now? Yes, I know many are upset - but you can't put the genie back in the bottle.

Sorry Berm. You know personally I respect you.
But I've had too much of this game. It is wash rinse repeat.
I was young, but watched as Reagan battled Leftists at every turn and they tried tearing him down. Conservatives took the high road, while Leftists worked to destroy him and his administration.
I stood by while Clarence Thomas was despicably attacked during confirmation.
I stood by when George Bush Sr. was attacked, simply for being Republican.
I noticed clearly when Clinton took office, how things changed. How WE were asked to come together after they spent 12 years trying to destroy Republicans. I noticed clearly how the gloves came off, and they treated the Dems as rock stars, coddled and protected them.
I stood by when Bush Jr took office while the Leftists worked day and night to destroy him. They called him stupid. They insulted him personally. He took the high road despite their vile behaviors. They literally blamed him for creating a hurricane (Katrina) and for killing thousands.
I noticed when Obama took office, immediately there were calls for unity and the gloves came off. Leftists treated Obama like a Hollywood icon, and covered for every one of his mistakes and misgivings and scandals. Including how he greatly divided this nation.
Through all of this, WE were asked to unify. The Left hasn't attempted to unify under a President for 30+ years.
When Trump took office, the gloves were back on. This time, it was far worse. Not only was the Left attacking Trump at every turn, from ice cream scoops to Russia, Russia, Russia, but they began attacking me. My family. My friends. Anyone who supported Trump was a Nazi. If you wore a MAGA hat, you had a high chance of being assaulted. Cars with Trump stickers were incessantly vandalized. We were physically attacked at rallies. We watched as Nancy tore up the President's speech. We watched them attempt to impeach him for crimes Biden actually committed in Ukraine.
Now the gloves are off and Biden is President and the Left is calling for a new day, for unity.
With each change in office, we have seen the same cycle and each time a Democrat took office, by and large the Right took the high road, accepted the results and moved on. Only to see each time a Republican took office, it was war and 4 or 8 or 12 years of attacks aimed and bringing down the Republican President in office.
When it became personal for us, that was the final straw.
I can't say this more succinctly. **** Biden. **** the Left. **** the calls for Unity. I will treat the Left as they have me, no more high road. I will treat Joe Biden as Trump was treated.
He's not my President.
If things are to change, it's got to come from the Left. We have acquiesced enough.
