What’s driving America’s partisan divide and what might be done to reverse it

Robb Willer:

I think it’s very possible it’s going to get even worse before it gets better. We haven’t reached that point where powerful interests on the left and right, party leaders, high-level donors have realized, oh, we actually should be working together to work on this Pandora’s box that we have opened up.

We haven’t gotten there yet. And that might be the way that it’s most realistically going to happen, is that the harms of political division, destabilizing our society, our economy, that unites powerful interests to take some sort of action together. But, in the near term, all we have is us.

And you can never tell what can happen from the results of collective action.
