Consider this the pounciest of the media’s constant “conservatives/Republicans pounce!” spin on bad news for their opponents. After having been reviled by Democrats and the media as a traitor for the past two years, Politico apparently expected Donald Trump and his allies to react to his exoneration by, um, pretending it never happened. The big takeaway from the outlet’s perspective is that Trump & Co. should have showed more “interest in healing or national unity” rather than point out that their opponents had engaged in paranoid conspiracy theories:
The article itself rings the same pouncy bell: (Trump begins post-Mueller 'reset' by attacking Democrats, media - POLITICO)
“There’s a rare moment here for Donald Trump to get a bit of a reset,” said Matt Schlapp, a Trump ally and chairman of the American Conservative Union. “He’s got a chance to reconnect with more Americans than he even did previously.” But after the nearly two-year investigation found no collusion or clear obstruction of justice, Trump and his aides showed little interest in healing or national unity. They quickly launched a fierce counterattack against both Democrats and the media, claiming that Trump had survived what amounted to an extralegal coup — and implying that other charges of wrongdoing against him should also be discounted. “Democrats simply can’t be trusted,” former Trump White House official Steven Cheung said. “Democrats lied to the American people continually, hoping to undo the legitimate election of President Trump,” a Sunday statement from Trump’s re-election campaign declared.
Small wonder, then, that Trump et al aren’t seeking national unity from Democrats and the media. They still haven’t learned their lesson from Russiagate, and at this rate they never will. Under those circumstances, it’s laughable to spin this as a problem when the slandered doesn’t kiss and make up with those who slandered them.



~~~~~~
The only "uniting" that needs to be done is the Left rejoining the rest of the nation over here in reality. They need to "unite" their minds after the past two years of cognitive dissonance.
If the Progressive Marxist Socialist Democrats are seeking national unity with Republicans, why are they continuing with their investigations and not promoting national unity themselves? Hmm...., trying 'National Unity' with the Democrats is like trying to make friends with a crocodile. They just look for the best moment to strike.
Stop and think about it. If I was accused of something I didn't do for two years and had my name and my family dragged through the mud because the other side couldn't accept that someone as corrupt as Hillary Clinton lost the election you can bet your bippy I would be looking for payback.
On the other hand, After more than two years of fomenting national disunity with its endless stream of smears innuendos and lies, the mainstream media now thinks their target should promote unity? Why don't they begin the process?

 

[Deno]

Trump is pouncing on democrats and the media because they are

lying scum bag mother fluckers....

It’s the left that should be on its knees begging forgiveness.....

Its time for the real criminals to face the music..............

Thank God for President Donald J. Trump...

WINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump isn't looking for payback. He wants to drain the swamp, that's all he's ever wanted, and his strategy has always been to allow them enough rope to hang themselves.

And hang themselves they do, over and over.

 

[Lumpy 1]

It's impossible to unify with sniveling brats looking for zero responsibility that have a complete lack of logical thought.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

LOL.....dems and the left wing media have been attacking Trump for the last two and a half years and you have the gall to ask that question?
Go Fuk yourself.....

 

[airplanemechanic]

Why should Trump try to unite anybody after the way he was treated ever since he even thought of running for president? He's treating the dems like anyone would treat a pile of dog shit on the ground.

 

[Roudy]

For three years the crooked Democrats and their puppets in the media have been pouncing on Trump and everything associated with him, and now you're upset over a little taste of your own medicine? Isn't there a safe space nearby where you can cry and whine?

Following this stunning loss the left is reaching out with the phony hand of friendship ..... They do that so they can hold you still while they stab you to death with the other hand.

It's a false premise and the blood lust has only just begun. The left does not want
Unity...they want dominance. The real question should be... Why are the Democrats still attacking?

Jo

 

[Mac1958]

Neither party gives two little shits about any kind of unity right now. It's all about getting the other tribe at any cost. Party over country.

 

[justoffal]

What the hell is politico talking about? The
Dems are attacking even more in the wake of the investigation. Unity my ass.... The moment he lets his guard down they will positively rip him apart....there is no quit in their strategy there is no reconciliation In their plan.

There will be no unity until after a total collapse of the crooked Democratic party and their puppets in the media, which is where they insist on heading towards.

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Who the f_ck wrote that gutless trash for the Politico? Surely it wasn't meant seriously?
The left and media has doubled down on getting Trump's head on a pike. You can't appeal to the good nature of sharks.

What a stupid article.

He cannot seek unity with those who refuse to compromise and the Democrats refuse to compromise.

They want nothing less than trump gone, everything he has done erased, open borders, a disarmed populace, and repeal of the freedom of speech
