They sponsored the Georgetown Battleground Civility Poll that came out not too long ago, which is the focus of their conversation Topics Mike & Liam Discuss Include: - the mission of AVP - the value of Democrat and Republican pollsters working together - why most Republicans and Democrats believe democracy is threatened - fighting for values vs working for the best possible solution - getting to a point of ‘slightly less loathing’ - how close we are to civil war - why Congress is more bipartisan than you might think - opportunities for bipartisanship Follow Liam and American Policy Ventures on X The Politics Guys on Facebook | X Check out Mike’s other podcast - Sustainable Planet.
