Pick a Side - PG:CC with Thomas Zimmer

Published: Dec. 6, 2022, 8 a.m.

b'Join me and brilliant Georgetown history professor, author of Democracy Americana and host of the \\u2019Is This Democracy\\u2019 podcast as we discuss where democracy is in America post the 2022 midterms. The Declaration of Independence might talk about a country where all men are created equal, but if we\\u2019re honest with ourselves, that\\u2019s not what everyone wants. History tells us there are those, an entire party in fact, who\\u2019d prefer to have a certain group in charge and know they don\\u2019t need the majority to achieve it. They simply need to convince enough people in the center that their worldview is better than what the left is offering and we could find ourselves in permanent minority rule. The truth of the matter is, our country is incredibly divided, and it\\u2019s up to us, every single one of us, to decide which way we want to go. There\\u2019s no middle ground left, no more excuses to be made, people must choose.\\xa0\\n\\nGuest social:\\nWebsite: https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/0033600001q9V3MAAU/thomas-zimmer\\n\\nPodcast: Is This Democracy\\nhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/is-this-democracy/id1652741954\\nSubstack: Democracy Americana\\nhttps://thomaszimmer.substack.com/\\nTwitter: @tzimmer_history\\n\\nPlease RATE and SUBSCRIBE so we can grow the show, open the dialogue, and inspire change moving forward!\\n\\nAll show links here!: https://linktr.ee/politicsgirl\\n\\xa0\\nThank you to today\\u2019s sponsors!\\nwww.thrivecausemetics.com/politicsgirl\\nwww.bombas.com/politicsgirl Code: PoliticsGirl\\nwww.lomi.com/politicsgirl\\nwww.uncommongoods.com/politicsgirl'
