My problem with Rush is he has turned Trump’s criticism of Cruz into Trump saying “I will reach out to Democrats.”

I think a closer summation would be “Cruz couldn’t accomplish anything with opposition of his own making: I can.”

There were numerous red flags already, Rush - you are a bit late to the party. Trump has been a liberal from day one - obvious to anyone paying attention.

You have no idea if Cruz can win. He’s a far better candidate than liberal Donald Trump and, unlike Trump, he is conservative.

Wouldn’t be the first time.

Indeed, calling someone a maniac and unqualified to be president and lacking the temperament to be President isn’t an attack - just powder puff stuff.

You’re the one arguing Trump’s position on Planned Parenthood was correct because he would “defund the abortion part.” You continue to grasp at straws. Stop defending this ultra-liberal candidate.

Trump’s Thomas comments were idiotic and totally left wing BS. Trump is a non person to me. He does not get that the Supreme Court runs this county on major policy issues. He does not get that all justices should be just like Thomas.

Lecturing “You conservatives” that we’ll “just have to get used to it!” when it comes to the Federal government “taking care of everyone” also isn’t a good strategy if you are running as a conservative, either.

Well, now I’m the idiot. I meant Scalia’s comments, not Thomas. Doh!

“Stop defending this ultra-liberal candidate.”

Buy a clue then get back in the discourse (that means discussion) in a rational way. :-)

Conservatives Rehnquist, Thomas and Scalia were all against the Kelo decision. Liberals on the court supported it, as did liberal Donald Trump "100%".

The blow-back from Trump attacking Rush would be ginormous. Definitely a popcorn event.

Yes I agree. Cruz has been doing his hitting at Donald behind closed doors in meetings so yin for yang. They are both big boys and should be able to jib and jab a little without Rush and Levin having a hissy fit over it.

Donald is the superior candidate in my mind.

That is clear. American jobs is very high on my priority list, and thus far Donald Trump is the only one saying that.

I heard the first half hour of Rush today and I thought he was babying Cruz and trying to shield him from the very thing that toughens contenders so they can weather their political campaign. I donate to Cruz, support Trump, and listen to Rush. To the degree possible, I hope Trump and Cruz fight the democrats and not each other. I think Trump can survive both the media, democrats, and GOPe assaults against him and win the general election. He needs all the help he can get from those who are fighting for America's continued existence as we have known it. Cruz would be an invaluable asset in his administration. If this whole tit for tat thing is just strategizing for mutual gain, it is not playing too well.

Well Rush spent a good deal of hour three saying he was not dumping on TRump
He was probably read the riot act in his E-mails or got a call from Trump cancelling Rush's memberhip(s) and then got his facts straight.

LOL! I’m guessing Rush was taking incoming today as bad as Trump did over immigration.

Can’t find it. Wonder how the Trump crew defends it.
Defends what you can't find?
