On Sunday Donald Trump went on CNN and was asked once again about David Duke’s endorsement. Trump told Jake Tapper he didn’t know anything about David Duke or white supremacy.
This sent shock waves across the liberal media and GOP establishment circles.
“They are now demonizing Rush too for not being 100% in the tank for and on-board with a Trump endorsement.”
No. What I personally am fed up with is his constant statement that he does NOT endorse any candidate during a primary, then will usually sandwich that statement in between a slam of Trump and a hug for Cruz. He has always been in the tank for Cruz, he is just too devious to be open about it. In other words, his attacks on Trump he tries to make out are objective analysis. He twists, misrepresents, emphasizes, de-emphasizes, ignores (did not mention Sessions’ endorsement of Trump), plays clips of Cruz making outrageous statements without comments, etc.
I set myself to listen to him through tomorrow just to see how deceptive and low he goes. After that, screw him.
It would be, if it were true. But it's not.
I try to listen to him most every day, and I haven’t heard him slam Trump. I have heard him say that Cruz is the most ‘Reagan-like conservative’ in the race, but that’s the truth.
What, exactly, has Rush said to slam Trump and when did he say it?
Lots of people being exposed as nonbelievers these days. Smacks of a religious movement more than a political one, where naysayers are kicked out of the camp. Cult of personality. Unbelievable how fast it came and co-opted the conservative movement.
Of course, this come from someone who still believes in social conservatism and biblical values. Take it with a grain of salt.
That was my first reaction. That he was giving Trump the benefit of the doubt. I heard it, inflection and all, and then read the transcript as well.
We've done that trip for eight years now. We certainly don't need to do it again.
You got it!
Unbelievable the level of stupidity that has taken over this website.
If Rush is "so over", who do you want to take his place?
Thanks for that input. I didn’t hear it I just read the transcript at the link.
“What, exactly, has Rush said to slam Trump and when did he say it?”
You mean you cannot tell from reading the transcript of what he said? He said today that Trump was angling for the KKK vote.
I am not going to recount his last month’s show.
Huh? "Voice emphasis"????? Aw sweet Jesus, we are so screwed...........
But that's not a reason to fail to disavow in itself.
So, Mister GOPe, you can take that "Trumpanzee" slur and pack it in your ass.
Tomorrow will be painful for you. :)
I don't even know what to say to that.
Apparently, the Uniparty so totally possesses this country that it's come to this kind of balderdash.
I cannot believe the level of insanity these trumpites have sunk. First they are despising a Cruz even though he’s the one that originally has fought for all of the conservative values, but because Trump said so they drool and bark whenever Cruz’s name is spoken. Now they are attacking Limbaugh?!?! are you kidding me. The trumpites have now gone off the deep end. I don’t recognize this forum any longer.
Ah...I get it!

I’m not talking about today’s show wherein Rush seems to actually be defending or making excuses and trying to explain Trump’s odd behavior re: the KKK endorsement. You said that Rush has slammed Trump, and I, as a regular listener, haven’t heard that.
You can’t point to or remember ‘one other instance’ of what you’ve claimed? Really?
Same here. And I've actually been here longer than my "join date" indicates. I've never seen it this bad or this insane. 2008 was nothing compared to this.
All I can say is....the leftists are desperate to get Hillary in ...and they have their operatives working 24/7 to do just that.
You already have.
The TeeVee, and by extension the Media DeathStar, has your mind in chains.
It'll nineteen years in two weeks that I ended up here on FR because I was CERTAIN that the Media was leaving something(s) out of the Clinton scandals coverage.
And I was right.
Since then, Google makes it a little harder to get here by accident. What does that tell you? :)
