Such a defense is not entirely surprising, since Mr. Limbaugh’s distaste for the Republican establishment is deep and well documented. But the supportive words from Mr. Limbaugh may provide Mr. Trump with the inoculation he needs to survive the scorn of the party’s elders long enough to be included in the presidential debates.

She makes it sound like defending Trump should be considered a criminal act.

Dropping Limbaugh’s name to Times’ readers is like waiving a red flag in front of a bull.

Most of these politicians running are lawyers and politicians who have never held a real job nor started a business.

Trump has started his own business and literally reached the top the world in business, success and life. He’s a business man and entrepreneur ,the guys who built this country like Ford, Edison, Jeff Bezos etc. He tells it like it is especially about illegals.
