Rush is not supporting Trump. He never supports in the primary. It’s not his fault that Trump has a habit of capturing the imagination of people - he’s funny and quick on the draw and does fun press conferences. Since Rush is in a business that requires some entertainment, it is natural that he would enjoy the Trump show. I mean, does anyone really want to listen to full a Carly Fiorina press conferences?
And I certainly don’t think Rush is denigrating people like you who do not admire The Donald. I’ve never heard him express anything like that.
I know that Rush isn’t supporting Trump. He never supports anyone in the primaries and he stands behind whoever the nominee is. But, he does refer to the people who don’t like Trump as the GOPe. I heard him say it yesterday, I think. I have to keep explaining to my husband that Rush talks about Trump all the time because Trump is in the news all the time. And that’s what Rush does.
Don’t get me wrong. I won’t think twice about voting for Trump in the general election, but I don’t think I’ll be voting for him in the primary unless I can be convinced to. I’m in NH, so I get to vote first. :-) I usually vote for the person who gets about 35 votes, lol. I voted for Fred Thompson in 2008. :-)
