@Huntn I get how you feel and every Democrat must feel like that at the moment.
But let it be what it is for now. Political passions are riding high any time a close presidential election is still in vote-counting (and doubtless lawsuit-filing) phases. That goes for voters and it also certainly goes for party leaders... and double down for a viciously partisan Senate Majority Leader who's pretty sure he's still the majority leader of his chamber in the next session of Congress....
While not excusing the "so much winning" attitude that any elected official has on tap right now for public commentary, it can be best to step back and look at all this partisan not-quite-post-election blather as we might when in some other country a leader says something we know full well may be aimed at peer sovereign states --enemies, frenemies-- but is actually meant for domestic consumption.
I remember for instance when Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was starting to lose his grip on favor with even the ayatollahs in Iran due to inability to meet economic promises to the Iranian people. His erstwhile rather pro forma death-to-America exhortations took on a more strident tone than back in the day when he was extremely popular with his constituency as well as w/ the clerics, and he had sent
an extraordinary letter to Bush 43: that was a letter which, whatever its actual intent, certainly more than just blurred the previous and longstanding red lines of "no negotiation" that both countries had arrived at for their own strategic reasons.
But by the time Iran's economy was falling apart and taking Ahmadinejad with it, no one even remembered that letter from Iran to the USA with its proposal for new ways of looking at their relationship.
By then Ahmadinejad was all about distracting his countrymen from problems he had not solved and so "Iran" became synonymous in the world press once again with photos of murals depicting a violent end to America at the hands of the Grand Ayatollah.
Well so keeping that shift in mind but getting back to the US and 2020, a lot of what both sides and their operatives are saying right now in the wake of Election Day is meant for their own party's adherents. Bipartisan solutions to problems in the USA are not the stuff of our political discourse while the counting house clerks are still tallying the votes, not even in less strident times than we've been experiencing so far in the 21st century.
The GOP is about to vacate the White House, one whose occupant they've had to stretch all credulity to portray as a fit President of the USA for the past four years. They are throwing whatever spaghetti they can find on the wall now in trying to portray that loss as a win... and in fact they have made inroads in the 2018 House and will probably retain control of the Senate. But how sweet it had been for Mitch McConnell to have had that malleable rogue in the White House, eh?
Trump distracted his followers for four years straight with tweet bombs and "watch me piss off the Dems with this move, baby!" -- while McConnell and company in the GOP steamrolled in a largely undiscussed agenda of rule changes and legislative tweaks that were not exactly what Trump had campaigned on in making his populist appeal in 2016. Trump didn't care. He had an audience of hundreds of millions. His fans didn't care either. They got a tax cut, deregulation... and some quietly ticking time bombs under their butts, due to deferred impacts that few in the USA have so far even realized are coming down the track no matter who's in the White House.
But going forward? It's good to remember that most congressional districts and all the states do have both red and blue leaning constituents. Biden and McConnell have separate but compelling reasons to want to show a divided America that self-described and/or actual "winners" on opposite sides of a fence can get things done "for America" in Washington, and their professional encounters --many in pretty strong disagreements that still ended up with bipartisan accomplishments in the end -- do go back decades in the politics of Washington, DC.
Meanwhile Americans on their own sides of political fences will eventually hear their still partisan leaders talking across a table, seeking and necessarily finding common ground that leaves those "so much winning" hot button items in the wings for some other time and focuses on public health (and coverage), jobs, infrastructure and repairing some of the excesses of the Trump era's anti-Obama obsession. Some of the moves might be bandaids. That's ok too. Baby steps.
And why is that? Everyone knows the status of our economy right now is precarious due to covid-19. Some also realize it was already precarious. A precarious economy will threaten every incumbent of a government that hasn't even been sworn in yet. But the bottom line of a prospective difference in 2021 compared to 2017 is nearly cast in stone right now: that Joe Biden is not Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell knows it, no matter the configuration of Congress.
