Nra any time soon. >> what about the idea that you present this idea that increasingly theres a lot of folks between the conservative movement who are immune? is that effecting the this week? >> yeah. we have segregated ourselves into these. they are the silos which i know you have talked about before. i think its getting worse. all of the trajectory of the media is for us to be more divided, to pull back into our corners, to go to the safe spaces where our biases are confirmed, where our narrat...

Responsibility in letting these machinations of vladimir putin run amuck on their sites, i have to blame the american citizen first and foremost. its indicative of a larger problem weve had. weve retreated to our individual silos and only communicate with the chorus, only talk to people who sound like us. so for us to have conversations, and one of the things we can do to damp down on the conversation, i have to have conversations in neighborhoods that look like mike pences and listen and share ...
