Hello everybody, Dennis Prager here, coming to you from Seattle, Washington.
I spoke last night.
It's a wonderful church here, I'll mention it later.
We're going to put up the video of the pastor interviewing me.
It'll fascinate you, I think.
Also, I spent four days in Fairbanks, Alaska, where the average temperature in the winter is minus...
15, often minus 25, sometimes minus 50. I actually, I'm not joking, I hit a hot spell because the temperature got up to 4. So I didn't experience what I really wanted to, and I also missed the northern lights.
If you don't know about that, it is one of the phenomena of nature that people strive to see in the Arctic areas, very northern areas in the winter.
Four nights in a row, it didn't show up.
And that's why the French have a saying, c'est la vie.
Anyway, welcome to the show, everybody.
Dennis Prager with you.
And Donald Trump won another resounding victory.
And this was in South Carolina, which is Nikki Haley's state.
Nobody is surprised.
The question...
That needs to be addressed is, will he win?
And of course there's no way to know.
That's obvious.
But I read a very interesting piece in the Wall Street Journal on this issue, and I'd like to just offer you some thoughts with regard to that.
Hmm, okay.
Let's see here.
Sorry, folks.
When you're on the road, there's a lot more to do.
It's a very important series of questions with regard to the victory.
Then I have the terrible murder of this precious young woman in Virginia.
By an illegal immigrant, but I'm first here.
In South Carolina, this is Wall Street Journal, 16% of Republicans in the GOP primary said they would be so disappointed if Trump were the nominee they wouldn't back him in November.
A potentially dangerous signal that he could have trouble rallying his party behind him.
That compared with about 20% of Republicans in New Hampshire's primary and 15% of Iowa who said they wouldn't back Trump in the general election.
Another danger sign, Trump lost to Haley in two of South Carolina's three most populous counties, Charleston and Richland, as well as Beaufort County.
Those are the only counties in the state in which residents with a college degree make up 40% or more of the adult population.
Trump also lost among voters with postgraduate degrees, typically professional class workers, and he lost among voters with a yearly household income of $100,000 or more.
So, I have railed against Republicans who won't vote for Trump, the never-Trumpers, for five years now.
To think that the Democrats will do more good for the country than a Trump administration in the face of his having been president for four years is 100% irrational.
It is based on a feeling of revulsion at his behavior.
Which, by the way, I do understand.
Every human is a package.
And the Trump package versus any Democrat package.
How could you be never Trump?
I'll have more on that and about the poor young woman who was murdered.
