How My View GrewTwo Audacious Ideas for a Post-Trump America (Really)When right-wingers in the United States were in the wilderness for decades, they didn't just sit on their hands. They envisioned bold ways to change the country. When they came to power, they were ready to act. Setting aside whether you like those ideas, ask yourself this: if Republicans could do this, why can't Democrats? Are liberals and progressives incapable of imagining what they'll do when back in power? Or have they simply not yet grown this potential? Maybe it's time for all of us to not just play defense against the current mayhem but...

How My View Grew"They Would Never Do That"Why have so many liberals and progressives felt shocked by the first two months of the second Trump Administration? Why, instead, did so many assume that "they would never do that?" In this short solo episode, I offer a possible answer. Liberals and progressives have a massive blind spot. They don't know who and what they are dealing with—namely, a worldview that is deeply entrenched in human culture yet widely misunderstood: the warlord or warrior. Once they see it, they—and conservatives committed to prudence, humility, and order—can abandon failed strategies and cr...

How My View GrewThe day liberals became small "c" conservativeWhen new political leaders promote disruptive and even violent change, then people accustomed to pressing the gas pedal on change may choose instead to hit the breaks.

Instead of pushing for change in society, liberals now have good reason to slow it down.
