EMERGENCY KIT for FINDING COMMON GROUND: Helping Americans Get Along

By Andrea Molberg

Americans are dangerously divided. How do those who don't want Trump as leader handle life until November? And how do Americans deal with each other whether Trump wins or loses?

Urgently needed communication and relationship tools can critically affect whether or not we pull together. This emergency kit is stuffed with field-tested techniques for bridging the divide and helping people disagree without being disagreeable. And, if you need to heal, hope, and cope during these unprecedented times, this survival guide tells how.

Filling a crucial void, the toolkit promotes empathy for the genuine differences between conservatives and liberals and shows how lack of civility is harming us, our allies, and our presence on the international stage. Practical skills and steps for lowering defensiveness, repairing relationships, and managing conflict and stress are provided.

For readers of every political persuasion, there are useful tips and specific phrases for respectfully managing differences before, during, and after the 2020 presidential election. Within the overall message of how to get along, you'll also find compelling reasons to dump Trump.

The emergency kit provides answers to "How can Americans be so far apart? " and "What do Americans as a people have in common?" There is also guidance for how to influence and overcome resistance to change during our health/economic/racial crisis. You will discover:
