Robert Putnam - "Join or Die" & Building Communities to Save Democracy - The Daily Show

[TexasTowelie]

Harvard professor, social scientist, and author of “Bowling Alone,” Robert Putnam, sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss how the demise of the American community affects politics. They talk about how America stopped being the most connected country in the world, data that proved the more socially isolated a person, the more likely to vote for Trump, how the new documentary “Join or Die” expounds on joining groups to save American democracy, and how to create the right groups through bonding and bridging social capital.
