Trump Calling for Death to a Michigan Elected Offical
In this episode, we explore how Donald Trumps charged language and polarizing narratives emanating from the top level of government will trickle down, poisoning everything from city council meetings and school board debates to neighborhood discourse. Discover the real-world impact when heated, distant battles become volatile, close-to-home conflicts, threatening the collegiality and reasoned debate necessary for effective local governance, and learn what citizens can do to advocate for civility and focus on the issues that truly matter to their communities.
