Why should Democrats trust Republicans to turn down the temperature?

Asked by JLeslie (65416points) January 13th, 2021 from iPhone

I’m watching the House debating about the second Trump impeachment and a few Republican congressmen saying now it’s time to turn down the temperature and not fuel the political divide already in the country.

Why should Democrats trust Republicans will cool down their pursuit of the political divide? Over and over again they show how they go for the jugular and lie when it suits them. Most recent example appointing a Supreme Court justice. I personally don’t have a problem with them pushing through their appointment I have a problem with them blocking Obama being able to nominate and have hearings for a justice. Lindsey Graham told a flat out lie.

Is there any reason to trust Republicans?

Specifically to Republican jellies: do you want more unity? Or, do you want the Republican agenda pushed through at all costs?
