Here I Stand

Martin Luther kicked off the Protestant Reformation with his immortal words, "here I stand; I can do no other." President Trump earns praise and scorn for his similar attitude, and as a result has forced conservatives and Republicans to rethink their orthodoxies. Is a conservative reformation at hand? Noted author Yuval Levin joins the Horse Race to expand on that question, while columnist Ramesh Ponnuru explores how Trump is handling the pandemic. We also look at important primary battles between would-be reformers and establishment figures with National Journal's Josh Kraushaar. All this and the Ad of the Week, too! Only at the Horse Race.
