Yowsa: Rush Limbaugh has some VERY pointed advice for Donald Trump
Allen B West ^ | 08/10/15 | Michelle Hickford

Posted on 08/10/2015 1:39:40 PM PDT by JustaCowgirl

From Allan B West website:

So Rush offered this perspective and advice for Trump today:

I’m just objectively looking at this. Trump is popular for a host of reasons. One of the reasons Trump is popular is because of the positions he has articulated on issues that a significant number of Americans consider to be very important, and he has said things on those issues that this significant number of Americans happen to agree with.

I think it would be in his best interests to get back to ’em. It’s just my harmless, futile little opinion here. I’m not presuming to tell Mr. Trump what to do, but I just think you dance with the ones who brung you. You never forget why you are someplace, and he’s there because of issues. It’s time to hear more from Mr. Trump on other issues that also are considered to be very important, and if he does that, then he’ll take the rest of the campaign with him.

Extremely sound advice from Rush Limbaugh as quoted in this editorial at Allan West's site. Trump getting into these mindless feuds with people, and incessantly tweeting about how great he is, is not what got him to the top of the polls.

Allen West lost his race to a degenerate alcoholic liberal so maybe he should shut up.

One would think that would help him, but I think it’d might be in his best interest to make a list of every jerk in the country, and continue attacking them one by one until election time.

It is good advice, but he is not really the one initiating these feuds.

All sorts of people have ruffled feathers and pee in their cereal over Trump.

Well, you are good at name calling. Not so good at giving reasons...is that you, Donald?

A conservative blogger has called the Trump candidacy “grotesque.”

Yup...maybe it's time for Trump to stop acting like a petulant child and start acting Presidential...

He needs to learn how to respond to the media traps like a Statesman with reasoned and articulate responses, like he above the media...

Allen West's district was redrawn to make it virtually impossible for him to win. He moved, ran in a swing district and lost.

What is your problem?

So, West shouldn’t pass on Rush’s good advice?

Allen West is a great American patriot. Perhaps it is you who should shut up.

“respond to the media traps like a Statesman”

A while ago, I would have agreed with you. But 3/4 people now on top of some polls are NON-POLITICIANS.

That tells us something does it not?

I hope you really aren't that mis-informed...

He lost a very close race which was probably stolen by a libtard county election supervisor and he was faced with Florida GOP gerrymandering which cut his conservative base in half when they re-distributed the state.

I agree; Trump’s over the top antics are turning off people. He is polarizing. Those who favor him favor him a lot, but he also has high negatives.

The good news is that Trump as a candidate is running an open campaign where you see the real man. The bad news is Trump as a candidate is running an open campaign where you see the real man.

Rush, there's a reason Trump won't concentrate on other issues. It's because HE CAN'T.

True. But he called Megyn out for it during the debate. IMHO he should have just let it go at that. Tweeting about it at 2am makes him look petty and insecure. Again, just my humble opinion.

Well, that's true, but at some time his "act" will grow wearisome...

He needs to stop playing with the media for face time and start acting Presidential....

I'm not sure he can do that...
