This election cycle has been the most divisive in modern history. So now that it's over, will we finally see some unity in the country? Unfortunately, the political temperature won't come down overnight.
Political strategist Chris Johnson told KTRH, "I think it's going to take a minute for the temperature to come down organically. In the short term, I think that we're unlikely to see anything."
According to Johnson, one of the obstacles to the return of unity is, of course, money. He says the Democrats make way too much money off political division for it to just disappear. He said, "Democrats generally outraise Republicans two to one. A lot of it comes from social media, where they go out there, say something inflammatory, and it raises a ton of money."
Johnson says that at the end of the day, big issues like the border and the economy are bipartisan. He thinks that if we focus on actual solutions to those big issues, that should help bring the country back together.
