Jordan Peterson on the worst thing about Donald Trump

Jordan Peterson is a clinical psychologist and professor. He is the author of Maps of Meaning and more recently, 12 Rules to Life: An Antidote to Chaos. The latter is a bestseller and has seen his popularity soar, as too in many quarters has the criticism of the 56 year old Canadian.

Here he discusses the phenomenon of Donald Trump's presidency.

[aaap]

Its incomprehensible that someone like Jordan Peterson could be banned from speaking.

[shaunsomma]

Jordan is one of the most sensible people I've seen in my lifetime. Expertly pisses off both sides of the spectrum.

[twhite]

I love Dr. Peterson because of the fact he can talk politics, religion, psychology, and motifs for life without bringing emotion into it and speaks with logic. We need more men like him!

[davidlawrence]

Gotta give it to Peterson, he has a realistically low set of expectations for politicians.

[imagefillers]

The simple fact that this man was banned and protested from college campuses, shows how crazy the extremists have become in America. If you don't like what he has to say, don't go to the venue he is speaking at. But my gosh, he seems a very reasonable person.

[albertocovenant]

"Moderate left, moderate right, reasonable discussion", that would certainly be nice.

[justal]

Watching this in 2021 and laughing at the contrast between Jordan's hopes in 2018 for the future, and reality for the past year+. Peace.

I was never a conservative but I am defined as such these days... So be it

[lucbergeron]

Nothing wrong with being conservative or leftest but being nice to one anotherseems to be gone

[michaelhiggins]

As Jordan so correctly put it: "hopefully, we can return to "normal incompetence" as opposed to the radical incompetence we have now. Wow, what a thing to say about our political system.

[helloworld]

How do you call politicians idiots without saying their idiots?
Jordan Peterson: Normally Incompetent

[jshepard]

1:22 Very true. A lot of people threw their vote to Trump because they couldn't stomach Hillary.

[jasonstraight]

If you listen to Jordan Peterson speak and get triggered, you're too radical.

[danilobriz]

"how do you judge the sucess of an american president ?.
Well, not engaging in stupid wars is a start".
JP.

[gwkdad]

Would love to hear Jordan revisit this now...

[swisstrader]

Hoping Jordan is OK. Just heard the sad news from his daughter

[BootyBot]

he protecc

he attaccc
*But most importantly*

He criticizes politicizations in an objective and fair manner

[definitelynotclickbait]

1970s we will have flying cars
2019 you get banned for having an opinion

"What I'm hoping for is a return to normative incompetence among politicians. That would be really nice."
Don't hold your breath.
