Ashton is joined by one of the most astute thinkers and observers in American politics today, Dr. Yuval Levin. Ashton and Yuval have a fascinating discussion focusing on what the hell has gone wrong to American politics and American society. In particular, the two discuss: why US politics have become so polarized and if reasonable voices will prevail in the future; why every aspect of American society has become politicized; why seemingly every member of society’s “elite,” across every industry, shares the same opinions as each other and increasingly oppose the viewpoints of ordinary Americans; how the two parties are shifting their voting bases; why the Republican Party is starting to resemble the New Deal Coalition while the Democratic Party now resembles the Eisenhower coalition; how the ruling gerontocracy is failing the United States and what the country will look like once the octogenarian ruling class is out of power; and much more
Yuval Levin is the director of Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). You can learn more about Yuval and follow his latest work by visiting: https://www.aei.org/profile/yuval-levin/
