And culture . What happened to us that led up tole that . This of course is a big question i had after the election. Look about and go what just happened . What did we miss . What were the things going on that i thought i understood that maybe i i didnt . . With the 2016 . Guest i started off with a thesis that donald trump was a black swan. He came in and took over sort of as a fluke, took over this otherwise healthy movement, but ultimately thats not a sustainable thesis.
