On Tuesday, President Trump took his rage from Twitter to an Oval Office meeting with Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. So this is a decent time to review a pretty obvious truism about Americans. We’re pissed. That won’t come as much of a surprise to you. We’ve been pissed for a long time. But historically, our anger has been coupled with at least a modicum of management. These days, it just keeps spilling out and slowly swallowing everything in its path. From Charles Duhigg in The Atlantic: The Real Roots of American Rage. “The Bill of Rights guarantees that we can argue with one another in the public square, through a free press, and in open court. The separation of powers forces our representatives in government to arrive at policy through disagreement, negotiation, and accommodation. Even the country’s mythology is rooted in anger: The American dream is, in a sense, an optimistic reframing of the discontent felt by people unwilling to accept the circumstances life has handed them. Recently, however, the tenor of our anger has shifted. It has become less episodic and more persistent, a constant drumbeat in our lives.”
