Unity?

Mitch McConnell along with other Republicans in the Senate and House are all of a sudden calling for unity?  In Republican terms, just what does unity really mean?  Does it mean Republicans will unite behind a Democratic President?  Does this mean Republicans will focus on what are the needs of the country rather than the needs of the Republican Party?  Does this mean Republicans will unify to force a President who commits criminal acts from office?  If one is to look at Republican actions rather than listen to Republican words one has to ask how refusing to hold confirmation hearings for President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Merritt Garland, shows unity?  Just how unifying was the Republican use of reconciliation to cut taxes for corporations and the wealthy?  Was the ramming the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett a demonstration of unity on the part of Republicans?  This call for unity is just another example of Republican hypocrisy.  The last thing McConnell and leading Republicans want is any form of bipartisanship or any form of unity.  Republicans want power and nothing else.  One must ask the question, why, however.  Republicans have shown a total inability to govern when they had power.  When Republicans held majorities in both Houses of Congress and the White House they failed to govern.  The only real legislative accomplishment was a tax cut that virtually doubled the deficit.  Time and time again, Republicans demonstrated they cannot govern.  Time and time again Republicans have shown there only ability is to obstruct.  Today, faced with the Covid-19 pandemic, the economic havoc caused by the pandemic, he need for comprehensive immigration reform, the need for voting rights legislation, and the dire need for infrastructure rehabilitation, obstruction is not a desirable course of action.  What is needed is sensible, useful, and all encompassing legislation to deal with each of the aforementioned issues and a critical need for legislation that is not compromised and bastardized by attempts to secure Republican votes.  The best example of this legislative bastardization is the Affordable Care Act, legislation that was modeled after the Massachusetts plan, put in place by a Republican administration and initially created by a Republican/Conservative, Heritage Foundation, think tank.  In exchange for promised Republican legislative support (which never came) the ACA is severely compromised legislation in need of much reform.  The Republican solution to correct the problems that are endemic with the ACA was over 75 attempts to repeal the legislation without a single proposal to make it better or make it less expensive.  America has experienced too many years of living with the obstruction Republicans labeled unity.  One more day of Republican unity is one day too many.
