Trump supporters can (and I'm sure they will) attack the messenger, but they can't refute the point.

No amount of logic, no pointing out of obvious truths, no reminding of past positions, will sway them from their support of Trump. There is always an excuse, always a justification, always a reason why Trump's behavior is to be praised while even the allegation of similar behavior on behalf of Cruz is to be condemned.

As they saying goes; you can't reason someone out of a position that they did not arrive at with reason in the first place.

but they can't refute the point. I wouldn't even try to refute the point. It's just irrelevant. Trumps been a politician for 9 months. He say's anything prior to that was just business. I believe him I have faith in him. Probably the very same reasons why you want somebody else.

We’re long past thinking and persuasion here at FR. Everyone should let it be, take a deep breath, and get ready for the time we have to unite to beat Hillary.

Wow, a dumb Rush caller has really changed my mind. As a low information voter, I guess I could probably overlook Cruz having the backing of the GOPe, Bush endorsements, Bush staff members, hundreds of millions in super PAC donations, Cruz blaming Trump for leftist BLM mobs, Cruz blaming terrorist attacks on Trump’s NATO comments, and the Cruz campaign plan to “patrol and secure” Christian neighborhoods.

I’M SOLD! CRUZ/BUSH 2016!

Thus my tagline...

Why even answer something as ridiculous as a caller put on Rush Limbaugh. Total con job.

Besides we’re not running against Ted anymore it’s obvious he is controlled by his Goldman Sachs sugar mommy.

Exactly what I was thinking when I listened to Vinny.

Trump is a chameleon. EVERY fan I've heard articulate their support merely projects all their dreams of “hope and change” onto their "Sham-Wow" guy.

Rush and you do exactly what he always says the left does. Assume that we’re idiots and we don’t know why we think what we think. We aren’t reasoned and our positions haven’t been thought through. Very condescending. I know what I believe completely and fully. I know why Cruz is a phony to me and i can explain it and have explained in thoroughly (If you care to know you can go over my comments). I’ve listened to Rush for years and now he tells me that I can’t come to reasoned decisions that differ from his own? Well, I’m sure if Cruz gets the nomination he’ll want people LIKE me to support him. I never will

You’re either lying or you haven’t been reading very many comments on FR

I don’t support Cruz because he lied about not knowing he had Canadian citizenship.

That said, it doesn’t matter anymore. He lost. It’s impossible for him to win the delegates he needs.

Not picking sides, but Cruz has a slim to no chance of winning the nomination. Slim is headed for the door.

All the arguing serves but one purpose and her name is Hillary.

Limbaugh is a conundrum. At one point his statements are cohesive and consistent. Then he finds his perfect patsy to make irrational judgements on a whole lotta folks. Such is the conundrum.

Conclusion: Take everything he says with a grain of salt, he is entertainment only. And sometimes, not so much.

In the end, we will see who prevails, and as all talk show host agree, they will keep working, either to praise or vilify the winner. Eventually it will be easier to change channels.
