Wow, after reading the transcript, I have only one thing to say:

It’s going to be a long week for Rush. haha

I guess Rush didn’t hear the story about Trump now claiming that his earpiece was malfunctioning, so that’s why he answered the way he did.

Otherwise, Rush’s analysis might make sense. But I think he (Rush) is wrong. By Rush’s own recount, Trump knew about the KKK previously, in 1992 made some disavowing remarks, so Trump clearly knows who the KKK is and David Duke is.

So unless Trump has gone insane, which I guess is possible, the only thing that makes sense is indeed he was having problems with the earpiece, so didn’t hear Tapper very well when he was asking Trump about the KKK.

It’s an interesting view into Trump really, as well as Rush. Clearly Rush doesn’t like Trump much, not willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. But also, interestingly it’s a look into Trump’s mindset. Rather than simply say “I can’t hear you very well Jake, would you repeat that”, he’d rather give some blustery non-reply, and hope it covers the question.

That is perhaps the most interesting thing to take away from this whole (non) scandal. Trump isn’t a racist, nor is he “worried about ticking anyone off”. But he clearly doesn’t have a problem just making stuff up, on the fly and off the cuff.

It’s either that, or his earpiece really didn’t have any problems, and he really was trying to pander to even the KKK. So, enjoy that, all the Trump fans on FR. You can’t escape that logic.

Or is his true non-conservative self breaking through his mask?

That's gotta be it. Rush has been faking conservatism for 32 years.

While Donald has been out there battling for the Reagan cause!

Nope. Not even close.

My primary isn't until the end of April. Don't care in the least how anyone else votes.

"Winning" isn't a reason for anything. Here's the last Great Winner:

For several months. And he'll keep right on fighting and fighting and fighting for conservatism ... until it's no longer convenient.

Yup. I was saying something like that to my husband earlier. Even if Rush gets no extra $$$$, he does love access. People who live in the sort of luxury he does - they are not hermits. They want to see and be seen - even if the public isn’t privy. It’s the beautiful people set. It’s the, “Oh, I won’t name drop”, just so we can know they have names they COULD drop to impress the little people. The laugh up their sleeve sort.

Actually, a pretty good analysis, and thorough.

It's also missing all of the vitriol exhibited by some of the Cruz fans/Trump haters on this thread.

In a word, objective. :)

So, why are you posting pictures of one of the eCubans?

Like you, Charlie thinks “winning” justifies stupidity.

I assert the message that Trump is trying to avoid KKK and David Duke voter-losses is clearly insinuated.

Your rejoinder is that the words are not, verbatim, there.

I again assert that the words are clearly insinuated.

You, no doubt, will respond that the words are not, verbatim, there.

You are willfully obtuse.

How am I supposed to explain the notion Rush said that Trump didn’t disavow Duke immediately because he’s worried and he didn’t want to turn off of potential voters

Like Duke voters

Don’t worry

They’ve seen this

Hell parse or explain it all tomorrow just like he did the Schumer Linda secret meeting today

Charlie?

That's not Ted Cruz after South Carolina?

Oh, my bad - I'm not good on "popular culture" iconography - I'm usually reading...

But hey, Fred - I'm glad YOU'RE up on stuff like that. You can teach me about the intricacies & subtleties of current TeeVee shows sometime. Just not right now. Nor in the future, for that matter. LOL! :)

For the last time: he noted that Trump had already disavowed David Duke and the KKK several times in the past.

This meant that his failure to do this on Sunday was inexplicable.

He then tried to give your guy several outs, which you are too ungracious to accept, because you inferred that like many conservatives, Limbaugh was not obsequious enough to The Maximum Leader.

What I actually wish Rush would say is: "Trump is a complete phony. He is not now, nor has he ever been a conservative. He is a 100% opportunist in the Nixon/Clinton mold with no core beliefs whatsoever beyond the moment, and anyone even contemplating a vote for him is a dupe and a fool who will either live to regret it, or simply become a complete robot who believes anything this preposterous clown says or does."

That's what I wish Rush would say.

But because he won't say it, I don't set up strawman threads attacking him for inferences I've made on my own, or with the help of the other cultists.

Yeah, I understood you had to read The Silmarillion several dozen times before you got it. I read like that until second grade myself.

I'm sure someone who uses "LOL" in every other post reads a great many books.

Crayons in hand.

It's amusing watching you beat yourself senseless with your own lips, FredZarguna.

Please continue. I haven't had such entertainment in years. ;-)

I don't know. I guess he was scrambling to come up with a positive explanation for this...

And Jake says okay, I’ll send you the list, but I’m just talking about David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan. “Well, you know, there’s a lot of different people in these groups, and I gotta research it.”

How do you explain that?

I don't mean to patronize you, Fred - but I was cross-referencing The Silmarillion with my collection of first edition CJR tomes.

Now, if you're a "brilliant" and "educated" reader as you purport to be, that particular reference is easily explained.

So, explain it. In under ten minutes. :)
