Is "at that point" "the final days of the campaign" or "the last four years?" No matter your answer, it was an empty campaign promise. But the "personal demonization" thing is a nice touch coming from a Republican.

I understand your intentional obtusity (obtusiousity? obtuscatoriness?) and will try to make this clearer.
You: The campaign promise to "unite" was hooey.
Me: Not when made. But, when it became apparent that the other side of the aisle was all drinking from the same koolaid cooler, and screaming "he's Hitler's reincarnation!!", (which began in earnest in the last days of the same campaign in which he had made that "uniter" pledge), there was no longer any possibility that anything he could do would effect that pledge, aside from doing everything the Dems wanted him to do, and I doubt that that was his burden at that point.
