Kristen Soltis Anderson: Let me then ask the flip side of this question, which is, are there any spaces where you specifically don’t feel comfortable? Any places where you are extra on guard?

Joe: I would definitely say in my office. I don’t want to offend anybody, and I have four kids. I have a living to make. I don’t want to deal with any headaches.

Danny: I’ve had friends that I’ve known for 20, 30 years drop me from Facebook over political differences. No matter how well they’ve known you, they will turn their back to you.

Joe: I wanted to mention, one of my closest friends happens to be a liberal, and I’m the total opposite. We’re great friends. People don’t understand that today, that it’s OK to disagree.

Michael: The country, to a great extent, has really lost the ability to have civil discourse and be able to learn from different opinions.

Kristen Soltis Anderson: Another show-of-hands question: How many of you agree with this statement? “I feel like a stranger in my own country.”
