Limbaugh: If Cruz Wins on 2nd Convention Ballot, "It's the End of the GOP" - Audio
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | April 25, 2016 | Brian

Rush Limbaugh today on his radio show looks ahead to what happens if Ted Cruz actually succeeds with his plan to wrestle the nomination away from Donald Trump on the 2nd or 3rd ballot of a contested Republican Convention. Rush said it will be like a “nuclear explosion” going off, and that “it will be the end of the Republican Party.” . . . .

Sounds like Rush has woken up to reality.
I stopped listening when he went full-throated on Rubio.

Cruz and cohorts are now working against the citizens in their quest to stop the illegal alien inundation.

Really do not give a damn what happens to the GOP, but this would also be about the end of the road for America too.

Cruz is playing a dangerous game. He’s not worth it.

He wouldn’t get a lot of votes.
And in swing states like OH and FL he’s been very weak.

You’re (you are) not your.

You're quite correct. In fact, your candidate, Ted Cruz--your obsession actually--is what what you're most apt to post about, day or night. I admire your fortitude in persuing a lost cause. I think what you're failing to realize is that your choice is fading very fast. For your sake, I hope you're to change, but something tells me you're not.

Destruction of the GOPe is not a bad thing, the leadership of the Republican Party are all corrupt.

Not going to disagree with your post...a lot of them should be hung for treason...

I keep hearing this refrain...Trump will destroy the GOPe...

How by electing Trump will that destroy the GOPe ?

By what means, what mechanism, by what authority, by an E.O. ?

Trump as POTUS has ZERO power over who gets elected to the Congress by the individual districts ?

It's "we the people" who will have to clean the criminals out of DC...we have not been very successful so far...

“I know for a fact that Rush reads comments from FR, because I have heard him repeat (without credit) word word comments that I read on here.”

I wish that guy would stop using my stuff and come up with some original thoughts of his own. Granted it’s brilliant, but come on, sheesh!

Cruz is a megalomaniac and he’d rather see the country go through hell than to bow out.

Direct quote:

Limbaugh told his radio audience, “If conservatism is your bag, if conservatism is the dominating factor in how you vote, there is no other choice for you in this campaign than Ted Cruz….”

Listening to Rush actually say this, the headline is rather misleading. Rush is NOT capitulating nor begging the candidates to make peace. At one point he is encouraging this “explosion” by saying that Cruz has no other path but the second or third ballot and pushing him towards it. As usual, Rush sounds split.

With your vote and with your actions during campaigns...
Know WHO you are voting for...If Trump is elected, I would not be surprised to see many non professional politicians running for office...Investigate them and vote accordingly...

And all this time, I thought bringing down the party as it’s currently constituted was the point.....

You can’t have it both ways. Either the establishment stays in control or the current sucker’s gotta burn in order to rebuild.

Funny. I thought that concept was an essential tenent of the Trump campaign. At least, his supporters here.
