So it’s OK that, if the reports are true, Rush took money from the Cruz campaign to crap on The Donald and promote Cruz? That’s what this thread is about. I am not a big fan of Donald, but he is the nominee. The decision is fairly binary: Clinton or Trump. Cruz is OUT. Sitting at home is a vote for Hillary. Pining away for Cruz is a waste.

“So it’s OK that, if the reports are true, Rush took money from the Cruz campaign to crap on The Donald and promote Cruz? That’s what this thread is about.”

No, this is what the thread is about:

“Mr. Limbaugh then used his email account to gauge reactions to the broadcast by the billionaire’s supporters. He also asked listeners to weigh in on the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.”

And this:

“Mr. Limbaugh said many conservatives in the “Never Trump” camp would be “livid” at his experiment’s results because, “they don’t understand even now the depth of the bond that exists [between Mr. Trump and his supporters].”

You are using a different article to make a ridiculous claim, that Rush Limbaugh was being paid by Ted Cruz. And even your supposed source says:

“The question is, are these talk show hosts becoming Pro-Cruz on their own volition? Or are they being paid big money to sway the election in Cruz’s favor?”

So an unknown website makes an unsubstantiated claim about Rush Limbaugh, while also arguing that “...“Neutral” Conservative News Websites Breitbart and The Daily Wire are actually fronts for the Ted Cruz Campaign” - and on that basis you accept as proven fact the idea that Rush Limbaugh is a paid operative for Ted Cruz? ARE YOU NUTS?

And you then start attacking Cruz supporters...AFTER YOUR GUY WON THE PRIMARY! Give it a break! Trump needs Cruz supporters, and other Republicans who don’t like Trump, to vote against Hillary. But if you spit and piss on them long enough, people will make the emotional decision to sit this one out. Then we have President Hillary sitting in office.

I’m trying to convince people who plan to sit this election out to vote against Hillary. Stop making it harder to do.
