Here we are. It's a Monday of a brand new work week. Don't worry. We'll get through the week together. Does the establishment even want to stop Hillary Clinton? We'll talk about that. Plus, the Golden Globes, all 1,000 of them over at the Golden Globes last night. We'll talk about a Ben Shapiro show. I am Ben Shapiro. I tend to demonize people because they don't care about your feelings.

Okay, we begin today with the establishment Republican Party trying to determine desperately

if they even want to win this election.

It's pretty clear that there is a segment of the Republican Party that would be very okay

with losing to Hillary. And spends most of its time demonizing other segments of the Republican Party that would be very okay with losing to Hillary

and spends most of its time demonizing other segments of the Republican Party. And I'm not talking

about the people who think that the establishment has the wrong tactics or that the or that

the base are just too hardcore. I'm talking about people who actually seem to have a real

level of discomfort with one of the crucial

elements of the Republican Party that would allow the Republican Party to win. And one of those people

is David Brooks. David Brooks, we've talked about on the program before. David Brooks is a New York

Times columnist, and he is the supposed conservative columnist over at the New York Times, which is to say

he's not conservative.

And David Brooks was on NPR with Judy Woodruff over the weekend, and while he was on NPR,

he was asked specifically about Ted Cruz, and he proceeded to say this on your publicly funded

news network, PBS. It's just terrible.

And Cruz is somehow beginning to get some momentum of Iowa and elsewhere. And so people are either mimicking him, which Rubio is doing

a little, by adopting some of the dark and satanic tones that Cruz has. And so...

Let me just add. If you go to a cruise, if you watch a Cruz speech, it's's like we've got this enemy, we've got that enemy, we're going to stomp on this person, we're going to crush that person, we're going to destroy that person. It is an ugly world in Ted Cruz's world. And it's combative and it's angry and it's apocalyptic. Well, if actually, if you go to a speech from his dad, who's a pastor evangelical, Raphael Cruz,

it actually is satanic.

I watched a speech in which he said Satan was behind the Supreme Court decision to legalize gay marriage.

So it's not too...
