Yuval Levin joins The Puck to explain why Americans have stopped trusting their institutions — and what it would take to rebuild that trust.
Levin argues that institutions are supposed to shape people into responsible citizens, leaders, professionals, and neighbors. But today, too many people use institutions as platforms for attention, status, branding, and political combat.
Jim Baer and Yuval Levin discuss why trust has collapsed across politics, media, finance, and civic life — and why the answer is not nostalgia, but a renewed sense of responsibility, restraint, and shared ownership.
At the center of the conversation is one urgent question: Can America learn to say “we” again?
