[quote=Anonymous]A big part of it is quite simple. Politicians used to work together, and they were civil. You'd get your info from the newspaper and the evening news (for those that bothered). Those were the absolute norms. But then social media and talking head news set the two parties against each other in a 24/7 public way, and both sides grew more and more extreme. The discourse became increasingly enflamed. And the end result is that we end up with a crude reality TV star as President. I don't know how our nation can climb back down from these dynamics.[/quote]
