If Biden goes full Schwarzenegger, will there be a Christmas Tree Of Woe on the White House lawn?
Frankly I'm more concerned about united around what? Looting anyone deemed 'rich'? Building a [Na]tional So[zi]alist Empire?
The nation should be united around the US Constitution. The very definition of what made the USA exceptional. The very thing that ensures anyone has human rights. The very thing that ensures freedom and liberty.
And predictably the ignorance of which that led to "Culture Warrior in Chief - It has become far too powerful to be anything else."
This nation is transforming right before everyone eyes from a USA to what-ever [WE] identity mob/gang RULES!!!! also precisely because 'our democracy' is just an excuse to ignore the definition of a USA for Gangland majority rulers and dictators. History just repeating itself from something that should've been learned centuries ago.
Vote for politicians that honor their oath of office. Not Hitler wanna-Be's trying to conquer the USA for [WE] mob RULES and [Na]tional So[zi]al[ism] just because they promise to commit criminal acts of 'armed-theft' on anyone 'rich' because theft is a zero-sum resources game and at the end of that game blood will be all over the place.
