How To Avoid Talking About Politics This Thanksgiving

How To Avoid Talking About Politics This Thanksgiving

In a recent NPR/PBS News/Marist poll, Republicans and Democrats described people in the other political party as "closed-minded" and "dishonest" when talking about politics.

This episode: political correspondent Ashley Lopez, political reporter Elena Moore, and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
