Will the country ever unite again, or are we destined to a divided America and will go the way of the Roman Empire?

I'm not convinced Biden can unite the country, I'm not sure all these executive orders he has signed in the last 2 weeks is helping to unite the country, instead he may be causing the far right to dig in even deeper. Your thoughts?

I hope Biden will continue to give folks who want to work for the benefit of the country in the future opportunities to do so, like the Republicans who are proposing their own Covid relief plan.

At the same time, he needs to keep his eyes on the road ahead and not get bogged down by the past.

He's got a good chance of doing that with a slim majority in both houses.

Honestly, I'd love to pin this on leadership, but if Trumpists resort to violence again and continue to rebel, I think there's not much anyone can do.
@MistyCee Good response, I hope you're right, that the country will benefit from Biden's Presidency. I would like to see Congress stop with the infighting and actually do their job and work for the American people and not their re-election chances only.
@independentone thanks. I hope it happens. A narrow majority in both houses and a centrist old fart whose been around a long time and seen a lot in the White House seems to me like our best chance.

Biden seems to meet like just about the most unlikely dictator and divider you could pick, despite the fact that modern political discourse seems to involve baselessly reversing allegations.
