Conservatives are split on whether to embrace Donald Trump’s remarkable political rise.  What then would William F. Buckley – the godfather of the modern conservative movement and founder of the National Review magazine – say about the Donald? 

In this episode, we put the question to Fox News Chief Washington Correspondent James Rosen, who is the editor of the new book, A Torch Kept Lit: Great Lives of the Twentieth Century. The bestseller is a collection of 50 of Buckley’s best obituaries and eulogies.

In addition to Trump, we discuss Buckley’s thoughts and observations on Winston Churchill, Martin Luther King, Jr., and other titans of the 20th century.  What did Buckley have to say about Elvis and the Beatles?  What Rosen tells us is sure to surprise you.
