Here we are, it is a Wednesday. I'm suffering through the last stages of the bubonic plague,

and the United States is suffering through the last throes of its death agony.

But we'll get to all of that. Well, not the bubonic plague part, but the agony we'll get to.

I'm Ben Shapiro. This is the Ben Shapiro.

Tend to demonize people who don't care about your feelings.

Yesterday was a very tiring day. Yesterday was a very tiring day.

Yesterday was a very tiring day because yesterday, of course, was the day on which Sarah Palin announced her support for Donald Trump.

And it was very disappointing to people for a wide variety of reasons.

The top reason I think it was disappointing to people is because Sarah Palin had been

seen as a Tea Party conservative icon, and there she is endorsing of the two candidates who are basically left, Ted Cruz and Donald Trump.

There is no question, as we went through on yesterday's show, there is no question that Donald Trump is the least conservative of those two candidates.

No question whatsoever.

In fact, Ted Cruz

would be the most conservative Republican nominee, probably in the history of the party. Very,

very conservative guy. So Sarah Palin, who's supposed to be conservative, she decides, after all,

no, not going to endorse Ted Cruz. Instead, I will endorse Donald Trump, who is a charlatan.

And there's something that I need to explain, a couple things that I think I need to explain before we get to the Palin endorsement. The first is that Donald

Trump has unconsciously done an amazing job of unifying the Republican Party. It's actually

kind of astounding. We talked about this a little bit yesterday. Donald Trump has done something no one thought he could

do. He's brought people together. Donald Trump, yes. He brought people together. How? Well, he started off his

campaign by launching fire bombs and brickbats at the Republican establishment. Right, I'm here.

They won't listen to you. They won't listen to me. And I'm going to come in and I'm going to change everything. And the Republican establishment, they said, that's a crazy dude. We hate that guy. He said, look what he's saying on immigration. He's totally nuts. Look what he's saying about Muslim refugees. He's totally out of his mind. And so the grassroots said, well, if Trump is going after the establishment and the establishment is going after Trump, well, then great.
