Attorney and Republican strategist Peter Lumaj joined us to discuss a troubling new survey showing that 1 in 3 young Americans believe political violence can be justified, a statistic he says reflects deep cultural, institutional, and political fractures in the country. Lumaj emphasized that this shift in attitudes is a warning sign that civic norms are eroding, fueled by polarization, misinformation, and a lack of confidence in democratic processes. He urged leaders, educators, and communities to recommit to teaching constitutional principles, civil debate, and respect for differing viewpoints, stressing that America’s stability depends on restoring a shared belief that change must always be pursued through peaceful and lawful means.
