On this episode of the podcast, I’m joined by commentator and NYT columnist David French, to talk about politics and his recent book Divided We Fall. We talk partisan polarization, public witness, and I even ask him to give some predictions for the election cycle ahead. Among the questions we discuss:
- David's journey to becoming "a man without a party" and whether this marginalizes him on both sides or gives him a unique opportunity
- The shifting discourse from "the other side is wrong" to "the other side is evil"
- The possibility of the breakup of the American republic ("Calexit" and "Texit")
- Postures that are necessary to weather the upcoming election cycle
- How to discern "dangerous ideas" and to engage in public witness with compassion and conviction
