Prager H2: Dennis is getting hate mail at a rate unprecedented – and it’s from Republicans. The party is tearing itself apart right now and that, more than anything, will assure its defeat in November.

Prager H1: The Academy Awards were rife with politics last night. It makes it very tough to watch. Joe Biden spoke on campus rape culture. Leo called Global Warming the biggest problem we face. And, of course, the non-crisis of racism in Hollywood was spread throughout the evening.
Prager H3: Dennis looks at last night’s debate. Trump had some great lines. But so did Rubio and Cruz… How many times were the words “lie” and “liar” used?
Prager H2: There’s a lot of anxiety out there — a messy nomination fight, terror threats, economy faltering. All this anxiety argues eloquently for a day of rest — a day where you leave the world. Religious people call it a Sabbath. You can call it anything you want. It will make you happier.
Prager H1: It’s hard to watch the Republican debates and not grimace. What should have been the most idea based of nomination fights has devolved into name-calling. Last night was no exception. Who is responsible for that?… Peggy Noonan offers an excellent explanation of the Trump phenomenon.
Prager H3: Dennis laments the current divide in the Conservative party. He fears that many conservatives will vote for Hillary, than for the conservative that isn’t their first choice. Dennis tasks those conservatives to ask themselves… is it better to have a Democrat for President or an imperfect Republican?
Prager H2: Dennis continues to discuss Trump and the G.O.P. race, asserting that if Trump were truly honorable, he would resign from the race for the good of the Republican party. Dennis does not trust that Trump will do what he promises to do. Callers weigh in. Rabbi Joseph Telushkin joins the program to talk about the latest course up now at Prager University: Anger Management.
Prager H1: Dennis discusses the listener emails he has received recently from Trump supporters. He’s being called a shill for the G.O.P..
He explains why this attack is a disingenuous approach.
Prager H3: Dennis comments on the fact that Trump’s business savvy is as relevant to him being president as to how good he is at baseball. Philip Knight, founder of Nike, donates 400 million dollars to Stanford to help recruit students to work on solving poverty and climate change.
