About this episode
Ross Douthat reflects on the lack of a unifying address from politicians on the 250th anniversary of America and offers his own speech.
My fellow Americans: On this 250th anniversary of our great republic, I think we’re unlikely to have a unifying address from any politician. So, I thought I’d get a little dressed up and offer one myself.
