Tribalism and Polarization in Politics
This chapter explores the rise of tribalism in American politics, linking it to a decline in religious affiliation and the increasing importance of political identity. It discusses the psychological dynamics of electoral campaigning, the emotional appeals used by candidates, and the transformation in campaign strategies, particularly within the Republican Party. The conversation also critiques Kamala Harris's political positioning and the Democrats' efforts to reclaim the concept of 'freedom' in their messaging.
