Mark Grimaldi, Executive Producer of The Leslie Marshall Show, and Nicholas Wapshott, Opinion Editor of Newsweek, guest host for Leslie this hour.

Donald Trump has risen in two National GOP polls following multiple hateful and xenophobic statements he's made since the terrorist attacks in Paris. Mark and Nicholas are joined by callers as they discuss what this says about today's Republican party.

Nicholas Wapshott's newest book is titled "The Sphinx: Franklin Roosevelt, the Isolationists, and the Road to World War II." The book is available at www.wwnorton.com/books and Amazon.com. You can follow Nicholas on Twitter @NWapshott, and Mark Grimaldi @MarkJGrimaldi.
